Pair Of Excelsior Awards Short Lists Released



The Excelsior Awards announced their short lists this week. That's an awards program selected by school students, sort of like a few of the awards given out at Angouleme but in this case I believe constituting the entire program.

The older kids (11-16 years old) picked:

* Audubon: On the Wings of the World, Fabien Grolleau And Jeremie Royer (Nobrow Press)
* Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet, Ta-Nehisi Coates And Brian Stelfreeze (Marvel)
* Captain America: White, Jeph Loeb And Tim Sale (Marvel)
* Clear Blue Tomorrows, Fabien Vehlmann And Bruno Gazzotti (Cinebook)
* Shuirken and Pleats Vol. 1, Hino Matsuri (Viz Media)
* Superman: Lois and Clark, Dan Jurgens And Lee Weeks And Scott Hanna And Sergio Cariello (DC Comics)
* We Are Robin: The Vigilante Business Lee Bermejo And Jorge Corona (DC Comics)
* Yona of the Dawn Vol. 1, Mizuho Kusanagi (Viz Media)

The younger kids (8-11 years old) picked:

* DC Superhero Girls: Finals Crisis Shea Fontana And Yancey Labat (DC Comics)
* Luna the Vampire, Yasmin Sheikh (IDW Books)
* Mega Robo Bros, Neill Cameron (David Fickling Books)
* Nightlights, Lorena Alvarez (Nobrow)
* Tamsin and the Deep, Neill Cameron And Kate Brown (David Fickling Books)

I have no idea reading these articles if a winner gets selected or if this is the final accounting, but it's always interesting to see what kids react to.
