Congrats to all noms. I envy you. Good thing there are people are out there reading this stuff--except for the continuing series, new series, young Kitchen's (Kichenette?) wonderful book and the Willie story, the rest flew below my radar.

It just seems that Moore is being clever with the storylines (sort of an erotic "League") and the background information. I did like the mother-maiden-crone angle, especially since the timelines are reversed: the oldest character has the earliest sexual experiences. It doesn't strike me as All That Great. I'd place it somewhere in the middle of his oeuvre. One story which I think deserves a nomination was "Web of Romance" by Tom Beland. In a single issue, we discover what makes Peter and Mary Jane Parker's relationship so special. And his "True Story Swear to God" is just as good.

I mean, it's a great book and a second printing <i>was</i> issued last year, but I'm confused as to how it got onto the list.

A shame to see Alan Moore, Matt Fraction and Can't Get No ignored. Casanova is definitely my Best Continuing Series, well past Cap or Daredevil.

For instance, if this category had existed in 1986, the book version of Maus would have been eligible in both categories as well. The "Mom's Cancer" book is indeed a very different entity than the webcomic, which is no longer available online.

Nothing was ever the same in comics after Watchmen. That has to count for something. Right?

And didn't it win "best digital comic" two years ago? The comic is fantastic, but it seems like the same material can continue to be nominated again and again. Maybe I'm missing something.

That's great news for Derek McCulloch And also, high praise for Gene Yang's, AMERICAN BORN CHINESE. Two books that really should be required reading.
