    I really don't read enough modern comics to vote. If I did it would be all Archie's Dark Circle stuff,Walking dead and Crossed.

    Dunno if this is disqualified or not. Originally it was to be an 8 issue limited series, but Marvel added a 9th issue somewhere (thanks, Marvel ...and Obama?). I know because I never ordered the 9th issue from DCBS and had to go swing by my LCS, hoping they still had a copy. They did. *whew*

    Anyway... Issue 8 came out in 2015, but issue 9 came out about a couple of weeks ago (1/6/16). Although it was originally scheduled to be released in the last week of December, it got bumped back a week and into 2016. So I don't know how the Geeks will handle this?

    I don't know why I care so much. I'm not trying to call you out or anything. I probably just need to go to bed. It's late. Uh, cheers! ;)

    I hereby arbitrarily decree that, whereas the bulk of it was published in 2015, and whereas its final issue missed the cutoff date by a measly six days (after multiple postponements, without which the issue would have seen print months before the deadline), the Secret Wars miniseries WILL be considered eligible for nomination in this year's "Best Of" Awards! @TheOriginalGMan, you're free to restore your ballot to its original, unrevised state (or to leave it as it is, at your discretion).

    I'm wondering if there's going to be really low turnout for this, this year, because of the forums having been down this past week, and the low number of people coming back?
    Personally, I'm having a hard time with filling out my list as I've read the least comics this past year than I ever have since I found out about CGS and these forums about 7 years ago.

    For everyone nominating Tom King for Breakthrough Talent of 2015, Tom actually won this category in last year's awards. While I agree he's had an outstanding year, can you break through twice, @Adam_Murdough?

    Well, there's no rule specifically prohibiting it... And I guess it could be argued that he's "broken through" significant ceilings of success in two consecutive years. I personally wouldn't encourage people to nominate the same creator in that category two years in a row (no slight to Tom intended), but I won't forbid it, either.

    Fair enough. I'm pretty sure I voted for him last year, which is why I nominated Erica this year. Else I probably would have nominated Tom this year.
