No Straight Lines Wins Best Anthology At Lambda Literary Awards It's pretty much all there in the headline, although it's worth noting for sure that this is the first time that a graphic novel has won in that category and that editor Justin Hall cast the win as a victory for literary comics. I have little to no opinion on whether or not comics should be up for awards that usually go to prose works -- I would imagine that depends on the foundation for that award -- but I'm happy for work to recognized once that decision is made. Congratulations to Hall, publisher Fantagraphics and the cartoonists represented in that volume.
