Your 2013 Harvey Awards Nominees

The 2013 Harvey Awards nominations were announced early today via e-mail. It seems like a pretty solid group of conventional-wisdom favorite: Chris Ware, Hawkeye, Saga and the like; with creators and titles doing recently well. There are only three names on the ballot that strike me as likely to have benefited from direct campaigning, which is something you can do with an open nominations process. It just is. That doesn't strike me as a bunch, though.

Congratulations to all the nominees, including my pals and peers in the Journalism category. These are held during Baltimore Comic-Con weekend.
