I am currently working on a comic, and I've spoken with a friend of mine if they wanted to participated, seeing that they have a very distinctive artstyle. My idea was to draw the pages of the comic, while they draw a detailed cover for it.
This is qhere I start to have doubts and I am not really sure if this clashes with a specific rule in the Terms of Use. Would it be a conflict against the "Ownership" section if they would be credited, even if I did not create the literal first page of the comic?

Hmm. Being sincere, I don't think that there's any 'kind' of 'ownership' problem as long as you **properly** credit your 'friend' (by clicking on the 'Users & Credits' option on your 'project-details' form and putting their respective username, and what have they 'exactly' done.)
Now well, in case that you still feel 'doubtful' regarding this topic, feel free to contact via PM with a Moderator of the Art Portal, for 'further' (and more 'precise') help and information, respectively. Here do you have the list of the Moderation Team, at the following link:
