Missed It: Graphic Short Story Prize To Isabel Greenberg

The Forbidden Planet International blog caught it a few days ago, after almost missing it themselves: the Observer/Cape Graphic Short Story Prize went to 23-year-old Isabel Greenberg for her story "Love In A Very Cold Climate." It was a four-page piece from the cartoonist's graphic novel The Encyclopaedia of Early Earth. "Ding!" by Olu Oke and Michael O'Kelly took second place. More information on several of the entries can be found on the Comica site. There was a cash prize worth about $1600 USD, unless my math sucks. About 200 entries were received.

Judges were David Nicholls, Bryan Talbot, Rachel Cooke, Dan Franklin, Paul Gravett and Suzanne Dean.
