Peer Review Process
All research submitted to The Comics Grid are initially assessed by an Editor, who decides whether or not the article is suitable for peer review. Submissions considered suitable for peer review are assigned to one or more independent experts, who assess the article for clarity, validity, and sound methodology.
All research articles submitted for peer review are handled within an open review system by external experts. The journal strives to make the peer review process as open as possible, and the editors encourage two-way dialog during the review process. Authors can expect to know who is reviewing their submission, and see a full disclosure of the comments provided by the reviewer to editors.
We work hard to make this process as fast and efficient as possible. We also ask our reviewers to provide formative feedback, even if an article is not deemed suitable for the journal. Please bear in mind review and editorial work takes time; we'll aim to keep authors informed of expected timeframes.
