In news that no one on earth will read here first, The Beat posts the nominees for the 2008 Will Eisner Awards.
In a shocker, Indie Jones was nominated in zero categories.
At first glance, it seems like a big year for some of Dave and I’s favorite books including Fred Chao’s Johnny Hiro, James Stokoe’s Wonton Soup and the Bá/Cloonan/Moon/Lolos/Grampa cabal’s super bitchin’ 5.
Also, props to Tim and Laura at Comic Foundry for crashing the list of established folks in the Journalism category.
Also, I still think that “Special Recognition” is a way stupider and less classy name for the category that used to be called “Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition.”
Also, I was joking about us getting nominated. Calm down.
