In other years the creative representatives have been comics writers or editors, such as Tony Isabella, Anina Bennett, Jesse McCann, Meloney Crawford Chadwick, Tom DeHaven, and Chris Reilly. Keep in mind that anyone who is a judge has to disqualify his or her own work, which leaves out most current working professionals.
