Veja os indicados ao Eisner Awards 2011

O Oscar dos quadrinhos, o Will Eisner Comic Industry Award, ou simplesmente Eisner Awards, chega em 2011 à sua 23º edição.

Eles divulgaram a lista dos indicados desse ano. A relação de todos os concorrentes você confere logo abaixo, mas antes eu tenho que comentar alguns pontos dessas indicações.

O fato mais legal é que temos alguns brasileiros disputando alguns prêmios bem interessantes. Os irmãos Gabriel Bá e Fabio Moon, por exemplo, foram indicados a Melhor Minissérie e Melhor Colorização pelo seu projeto Daytripper. Rafael Albuquerque e a sua participação em American Vampire também merecem destaque, pois estão na lista de concorrentes para Melhor Nova Série.

A obra que teve mais indicações é Return of The Dapper Men, de Jim McCann e Jane Lee, que teve cinco indicações. Já o autor com mais indicações é Mike Mignola, de Hellboy, com cinco. Já na lista das editoras, a DC comanda a bagaça, com 14 indicações ao todo, entre seu selo principal do Universo DC e Vertigo. A Marvel só teve três indicações.

Bom, agora a bendita lista:
