Eisner Judges Announced For 2016 Awards Program

The Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards have announced their slate of judges for 2016 through their partner and hosting organization Comic-Con International. They are:

* Brian Doherty, a senior editor at Reason who has written a number of times on comics.
* Danny Fingeroth, a mainstream comic book veteran who works with programming for the Wizard World shows.
* Jason Grazulis, a backbone of the New Orleans comics scene through his retail and community outreach efforts.
* Jason Poole, a kids librarian from upstate New York and occasional reviewer of comics.
* Natalie Powell, a two-decade board member at Comic-Con International.
* Carol Tilley, a renowned academic best known for her work with aspects of Frederik Wertham's career.

You can read much more coherent biographies at the Comic-Con site -- although you may have to search a bit, I couldn't find a direct link to that story.

I wish them all the good fortune in the world. I plan on attending this year's show in my newly traditional back row seat, and a good slate of nominees makes that more fun.
