Congrats to the nominees! Still unannounced are the candidates for Advertising Illustration and Newspaper panel. I’ll update the list when the last remaining division categories are posted.
Wow. The strip awards are tough call this year for me. Not sure who to root for. I think Meddick’s looong overdue for some recognition. Pooch Cafe is one of the FUNNIEST strips out there and would love to see Paul G get the nod. And the writing and art in Cul De Sac is impeccable – can’t go wrong with any of these.
Congratulations to all three.
