Bagno di sangue per la DC che si becca solo 3 nomination, di cui 2 per miglior copertinista, sintomo di una crisi creativa abbastanza davanti agli occhi di tutti. Certo, magari un qualche riconoscimento a Batman ci poteva uscire, però quest'è. La Marvel se la cavicchia, 8 proposte, anche se la maggior parte se le porta tutte a casa l'ottimo Hawkeye. La Image se l'è cavata, meritatissimamente, molto meglio delle due concorrenti,18 nomination, da sottolineare l'impressionante 4 su 5 in best continuing series con Manhattan Projects, Saga, Fatale e Prophet
In generale i giudici si son buttati pesantemente sull'indie, c'è da vedere se avranno il "coraggio" di tenere la tendenza anche alla consegna dei premi a San Diego.
Per chi faccio il tifo? Hickman, Aja, Ware, Saga, Hawkeye.
E Adventure Time s'è preso na carrettata di nomination, quasi quasi gli do n'occhiata
