I will start with this character: Leon the Lyin' Lion
from Charlton Comics.
This character was featured in Zoo Comics,
Funny Animals and Atomic Mouse.

Just started dividing the panels in
separated images using this Gimp
script:
Divide Scanned Images
http://registry.gimp.org/node/22177
To use correctly this script, some
experimentation is required, but
the pages that I have tested
works really fine...
(although it creates some extra
images that must be deleted)
After I finished this process, then
these individual images will be traced
using Potrace or Inkscape.
Then, all volunteers will receive the
Comic book panels in two different formats
1) Bitmap
2) Vector graphic
In this way, volunteers could work in
the format and software of their choice.
Volunteer's tasks are:
1) separate the foreground characters
from its background
For Gimp:

For Inkscape:

2) Seamlessy restore the background

Endernafi, as soon I have separated the images and vectorized
the comic book's panels, you will receive a weblink to
download all the files.
Have a nice week!
