Well, so there! for all those that thought my taste in comics was terrible. I love MONTY and am very glad to see it awarded.

Great news! In my opinion (and I guess in others), Monty is the best comic strip out there today! It’s consistently funny day after day. Congratulations, Jim!

I’m happy that Jim Meddick won the prize. After many years of translating Monty for the Italian mag Linus, I know well how incredibly good Monty is!

Finally some much deserved respect for the most underated cartoonist in syndication today…

My belated congratulations to a great cartoonist and a great strip! For a strip that began life as an excuse to market a toy, Monty has certainly exceeded expectations. It is certainly one of my favorite comics.
