Cromartie High School = Eisner Award?
This is a couple months old, but I just saw it and thought it was pretty cool. I originally came across the article on 3Yen [or is it <3Yen], but the full article is courtesy of Anime News Network.
"The nominations for the 2006 Eisner awards (for material released in 2005) have been announced.
The only two manga to have been nominated are Osamu Tezuka's Buddha (vols. 5-8), published by Vertical, for "Best Archival Collection/Project-Comic Books" and Eiji Nonaka's Cromartie High School, published by ADV, nominated for Best U.S. Edition of Foreign Material."
"Cromartie High School will compete with these titles for the Best U.S. Edition of Foreign Material award; Dungeon: The Early Years, vol. 1, by Joann Sfar, Lewis Trondheim, and Christophe Blaine; Ordinary Victories, by Manu Larcenet; The Rabbi’s Cat, by Joann Sfar; and Six Hundred Seventy-Six Apparitions of Killoffer, by Killoffer."
Astonishing X-MEN and Fables were nominated in other categories, as well. Very cool.
For anyone curious, here's the full list of Eisner Award nominees.
Ja~!
