Matt Brady accepted the Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Periodical/Journalism from presenter Jane Weidlin and a bunch of stormtroopers. Congrats to everyone involved with the site.

I’ll post the rest of the winners when I get the chance.

    Congrats!

    And well timed regarding the relaunch!

  3. John Smith Says:

    An Eisner for what?

  4. Dan Says:

    To bad their plain old comics coverage was better pre-relaunch. Now there coverage is broader, but comic coverage has lost out.

  5. Shaun Says:

    Jane Weidlin? From The Go-Go’s? That’s hilarious!

  6. The Ugly American Says:

    It’s really due to the witty repartee by blog responders such as, and including, myself.

    Given the positioning of the award between drinks in this photo, I wonder how many Coronas it took before someone accidentally tried to drink the Eisner. :)

  8. Nathan Says:

    Congratulations! It is a well deserved honor.

  9. Erech Says:

    All the awards in the world will never make up for having the lack of taste to actually drink a whole bottle of Corona. How dare you, Newsarama.

  10. RMC Says:

    Nice one, Matt. Hats off!

  11. Rick Rottman Says:

    Anyone know which specific article or articles Newsarama published during the time frame of the 2008 Eisner that earned them the award? Most journalism awards are for specific articles.

    The Eisner Awards call for entries doesn’t list specific criteria, other than dates of eligibility, and asks that entries for webcomics and journalism websites simply submit URLs.
