[...] Eisner-Award nominee Jeff Lemire was also in attendance. I’ve just recently started getting into Lemire’s work. Shane let me borrow Tales From the Farm and I have I just loved the story. The artwork really grew on me and I needed to see more, so I checked out Jeff Lemire’s website and saw some of his amazing commissions and paintings. His style is definitely his own and most would say that it wouldn’t really work for a superhero book, but I disagree entirely. I love Lemire’s superheroes because they look so different. I was lucky enough to get Jeff Lemire to sketch up a Daredevil for me. [...]

Its great to see such a diverse list of books here. I’m glad last years selections weren’t just a fluke. But Im surprized that neither ‘Alias the Cat’ by Kim Dietch nor Midnight Sun by Ben Towle were on there. But its hard to argue with the list in genera;

[...] The Eisner Awards have been announced, and amid all of the commentary and snarky asides on its way (and is, admittedly, a great part of the fun of going through the nominees), I wanted to highlight how fantastic I think it is that the Eisners decided to break the category recognizing comics for younger readers, Best Title for a Younger Audience, into two separate categories: Best Publication for Kids and Best Publication for Teens. As anyone who works with kids or teens knows, they are a diverse and ravenous bunch when it comes to comics and graphic novels. However, no “young reader” is reading the same thing at 6 as they are reading at 16 (unless perhaps it’s Calvin and Hobbes.) The idea of trying to figure out a shortlist for every Eisner category is demanding enough, but the task of picking five or six titles to represent all the comics, graphic novels, and strips aimed at folks under 18 is nigh impossible.
