It certainly would be cool to sit in on the discussions, to say the least!Larry Nolenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001420558511460998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-3625784825061810212009-12-29T23:26:35.356-06:002009-12-29T23:26:35.356-06:00I will cross my fingers for your friend, that woul...I will cross my fingers for your friend, that would be a wonderful achievement. And yes, it is wonderful to see great talent on display. They judge the awards here in Kansas City every year and I've tried in the past to get on the crew to just help out, but they already have more than enough volunteers. I'd love to get a sneak peak!!!Carl V.

They are. Very much so.
Carl,
I think...Dannie, <br /><br />They are. Very much so.<br /><br />Carl,<br /><br />I think you'll enjoy the Lemire books, perhaps for the same or similar reasons for enjoying <i>I Kill Giants</i>.<br /><br />I have a selfish reason for wanting to read more of the <i>Spectrum</i> series. Someone I know is going to submit her artwork to them and I believe after looking through it that she has a good chance of being considered at least. Of course, now I'll probably find myself spending hundreds in the next year or two buying the other volumes, just like I've bought all the <i>Sparrow</i> series to date. Nice to see great talent on display, no? :DLarry Nolenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16001420558511460998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068873.post-60484905043088654902009-12-29T08:37:41.732-06:002009-12-29T08:37:41.732-06:00I Kill Giants was fantastic.

I bought it in single issues as it came out and loved it.<br /><br />Haven't read any of the others, but just looking at The Nobody makes me intrigued.<br /><br />I'm glad you spent time with the Sparrow and Spectrum series. Both are excellent. I look forward to receiving Spectrum every year, and that first time through it is always an event. I haven't gotten to read Spectrum 16 yet as I've ordered it from a friend's comic shop at a discount and it is very late in arriving...its driving me crazy!!!Carl V.
