Claiming Instructions


To claim a summary on February 19th, you will need to leave a comment with the following information (just copy and paste into a comment, then add your own details):



We recommend that you pick two or three options as we cannot guarantee that you will get your first choice. However, you may include more if you wish or list just one choice if there is only one artwork you are interested in. Remember that you are signing up for a collaborative event—please do not list codenames of fanwork that you would not be genuinely happy to engage with.

  • Claims will be made on a first-come, first-served basis and you will be assigned the first option that is still available in your list.

  • You may only claim once during Round 1, and you will be assigned a single art entry—this is to give everyone who can't be there for claims opening a chance.

  • Artists, remember that creators have different schedules and timezones, and that though we try to accommodate everyone, your art may not be claimed in the first few hours. Please be patient, and don’t look at claims as a competition.
    • This challenge is about pairing like-minded creators who will work together to produce exciting new Steve/Tony content; sometimes it takes a while for the right person to come along!
  • Creators, if the claim time is inconvenient for you, we encourage you to find someone who will put in a claim for you by proxy.
    • All your proxy has to do is comment on the claims post instead of you when the time comes, providing your username, email and claims as set out above in this post.
    • If you do not already know someone who can do this for you, you can email the mod team (cap.im.events@gmail.com) for assistance in finding a proxy.

When matching is complete, we will send out emails to connect artists with their writers, along with further instructions.

NOTE: After you receive the email, PLEASE RESPOND DIRECTLY CONFIRMING you have received the information. Please wait until you have replied to this email before contacting your partner. After confirming the assignment email has been received, it is the artists’ and writers’ responsibilities to open communications with team members and keep in touch for the duration of the collaboration.

And finally to the exciting part—the fanworks!

2022 Cap-IM Reverse Bang


All Reverse Bang art entries have been claimed and paired with their creators! Congratulations teams—we can't wait to see your works in May!

15 art entries will all be available to be claimed again in a second round of claims beginning at Monday 21st February 06:00 ET (what time is that for me?)

View all the artworks and additional claims information here!



To those unfamiliar with the concept, in Round 2 of claims works in the Reverse Bang are made available to be claimed again by a second creator, resulting in teams of one artist and two writers/podficcers. Round 2 is completely optional and not all works are guaranteed to be put up for another claim, or to be claimed.

We encourage anyone who missed the first round of claims to join in and participate in the Round 2!

If the claim start time does not work for you, we encourage you to find someone who will put in a claim for you by proxy. All your proxy has to do is comment on the claims post instead of you when the time comes, providing your username, email and claims as set out in the claims post. If you do not already know someone who can do this for you, you can email the mod team (cap.im.events@gmail.com) for assistance in finding a proxy.

Artists, if you didn't opt out of being double claimed already, and don't want your art entry to be claimed a second time, please email cap.im.events@gmail.com now so that we can remove you from the list before claims open.
