Commicast is a multimedia online academic journal that adheres to the highest standards of peer review and engages with established and emerging scholars from around the world. It is published three times a year: March, September, and December. Commicast aims to serve as a platform for publishing reviews, original articles, research findings, and case studies. This interdisciplinary journal focuses on communication, literature, and culture. It welcomes contributions from a wide range of disciplines and approaches that intersect at the intersection of the social sciences. Commicast’s topics include: Media, Digital Communication, and Technology, Communication, Politics, and Public Sphere, Culture, Identity, and Social Interaction, Language, Literature, and Semiotic Studies, Strategic Communication, Media Practice, and Social Development.
 
These topics are addressed in full-length academic articles, critical statements on current issues, development practices, and literary and cultural-based book reviews. The journal provides an innovative platform for researchers, students, practitioners, and educators to learn and contribute to the field. All articles undergo initial screening by the Editor and then a rigorous double-masked peer-review process before publication.
 
Submitted manuscripts will be evaluated through an Initial Review by the Editor-in-Chief/Managing Editor. If the article meets the journal’s requirements for scope, originality, novelty, adequacy of experimental data, and format, at least two (2) peer reviewers will be assigned to review the manuscript using a Double-Blind Peer Review Process. After the review process is complete, the assigned Editor will decide on the article. If the article requires revision, the manuscript will be returned to the author for revision. The Editor-in-Chief will then make the final decision (acceptance or rejection). Each manuscript submitted for peer review will be assessed based on both substantive and technical aspects.
