94 Days Until San Diego Comic-Con 2016

The Eisner Awards were first handed out in 1988, so they’ve been around for 28 years and I think I’ve been going to the con for what will be my 21st year. So while I haven’t been there for them all or actually gone to the ceremony at all, but they’ve only been around a little bit longer than I’ve been attending. Perhaps someday I’ll be able to say I’ve read all the winners and maybe all the nominees, but that day is certainly not today. I still consider myself a newbie when it comes to comics even though I’m veteran Comic-Con attendee. 

In any case, continuing my look at the nominees from the past, here are the Best Continuing Series.  

Best Continuing Series Nominees from 2015

  • Astro City by Kurt Busiek & Brent Anderson (Vertigo)
  • Bandette by Paul Tobin & Colleen Coover (Monkeybrain)
  • Hawkeye by Matt Fraction, David Aja, & Annie Wu (Marvel)
  • Saga by Brian K. Vaughan & Fiona Staples (Image)
  • Southern Bastards by Jason Aaron & Jason Latour (Image)
  • The Walking Dead by Robert Kirkman, Charlie Adlard, & Stefano Gaudiano (Image/Skybound)

And the winner is…Saga.

This is a comic I have on Comixology, but haven’t read yet.  I’ve heard great things about it so with a win last year there is all the more reason to get around to reading it.
