Eisner Awards 2016: Image e Fantagraphics fanno incetta di nomination

Eisner AwardsTramite il sito ufficiale del ComiCon sono state rese note le candidature per i prestigiosi Eisner Awards del 2016. Si tratta di uno dei premi più ambiti, se non il più ambito, nel mondo del fumetto USA e prende il suo nome da uno dei maestri del fumetto mondiale: Will Eisner.

Quest’anno la parte del leone la fanno le due case editrici FantagraphicsImage Comics che conquistano 17 nomination a testa per le loro pubblicazioni come Hip Hop Family Tree di Ed Piskor o la ristampa dell’Eternauta di Héctor Germán Oesterheld e Francisco Solano Lòpez’s (per la Fantagraphics) o Invincible di Robert Kirkman e Fade Out di Ed Brubaker e Sean Phillips (per la Image)

Praticamente assenti le “Big Two” del comicdom USA: la Marvel infatti si trova in nomination solo con Silver Surfer e Unbeatable Squirrel Girl mentre la DC con la sola edizione digitale di The Legend of Wonder Woman.

La premiazione si terrà durante il San Diego ComiCon di Luglio.
