Eisner Awards 2007 - Nominace
Komiksoví Oscaři pojmenovaní po (rád bych napsal žijící) legendě Willu Eisnerovi vstupují do dalšího ročníku. V nominacích nechybí překvapení ani nové kategorie. Ale víc v samotném článku.
Alan Moore to má za sebou, konečně ho porotci vynechali. O letošních cenách mimochodem rozhoduje knihovnice Robin Brennerová, publicistka Whitney Mathesonová, autory zastupuje Chris Reily, za maloobchodníky kope James Sime a známé osobnosti reprezentuje publicista a spisovatel Jeff VanderMeer (minulý rok podepisoval v Praze svou knihu Veniss Underground).
Zpátky k nominacím. Alan Moore odchází, letterista Todd Klein zůstává. Vážně už mi na něj došly vtipy. Největší ramena bude na své kolegy dělat Ed Brubaker, který vzkřísí všechno, na co sáhne. O titul nejlepší série na pokračování usiluje nejen jeho Daredevil, ale také Captain America. V komiksovém nebíčku mají určitě radost. Eda navíc okupuje ještě kategorie scénáristů a nových sérií (Criminal). Hned ve dvou kategoriích mu bude dýchat na záda Grant Morrison, protože z All Star Supermana si za mořem ucvrkávají všichni. Zapomenout bychom neměli ani na Billa Willinghama, který díky Fables a jejich spin-offům schramstnul stejný počet nominací jako Brubaker.
Pokud chcete znát letošní ústřely, brnkněte Brianu Vaughnovi. Do nominací se nevešel ani on, ani opěvovaný Pride of Baghdad. Čest grafickému románu dělá alespoň kreslíř Niko Henrichon. Do kategorie obálek se vešel robot J.G. Jones (52) i poetický James Jean (Fables). Nabušenou partu doplňuje John Cassaday (Astonishing X-Men), Tony Harris (Ex Machina) a Dave Johnson (100 kulek). Ale co bych tady plácal játrama, vždyť si to v klidu projděte sami…
Já jen doplním, že letos nastala nebývalá invaze žen a Japonců, když si mangožrouti dokonce vydobyli vlastní kategorii.
