His website for his comic imprint is www.shandafantasyarts.net ] WHAT A FIGHT! In the 1943 serial BATMAN, the butler ALFRED has a very meaty role, particularly in Chapter 3. In one of our favorite scenes, the villain Dr. Daka has lost his radium gun to the Batman and is trying to retrieve it. Batman places an ad in the paper and has Alfred in disguise rent an office, and meet people who wish to claim it. Robin is on the roof, while Batman waits at the window. Soon enough, Daka's chief thug arrives with 3 of his men and tries to get the gun. Robin crashes through the skylight, and Batman joins in for a large fight. Alfred, knocked to the floor, finds a discarded gun. He closes his eyes and blindly fires it into the air, as all participants, including the Dynamic Duo, hide. When he's out of bullets and the thugs have fled, Batman creeps up and gets the gun. Here is the next scene of dialogue. ALFRED: Where are the ruffians? ROBIN: You killed all seven of them. ALFRED' But there were only four of them! ROBIN: You killed three of them twice. ALFRED: Where are the bodies? ROBIN: We threw them out the window. Then Batman and Robin discuss their next move, while Alfred goes to the window and looks down. _________________________________________________________________ ----------------------------------------------------------------- [4] Network Buzz News, gossip and rumors from the industry FROM: http://www.comic-con.org/cci/cci_eisners_main.shtml Chris Ware, Warren Ellis Garner Most Nominations for 2006 Eisners Representing very different ends of the comics spectrum, Chris Ware and Warren Ellis are the creators with the most nominations for the 2006 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards. Ware has seven nominations, four for his self-published hardcover Acme Novelty Library 16 (Best Graphic Album-New, Writer/Artist, Coloring, Lettering), two for Acme Novelty Library Annual Report, published by Pantheon (Graphic Album-Reprint, Publication Design), and another design nomination for Drawn & Quarterly's Walt and Skeezix. Ellis's six nominations are associated with several projects. For WildStorm, his Desolation Jones is up for Best New Series and Serialized Story, while Ocean is nominated for Limited Series. For Image, Fell is nominated for both New Series and Continuing Series. In the Writer category, his nomination is for those projects as well as for Down (Top Cow/Image), and Planetary (WildStorm). Close behind Ellis with five nominations is another Writer nominee, Brian K. Vaughan (last year's recipient), with nods for WildStorm's Ex Machina (Single Issue, Serialized Story, Continuing Series) and Vertigo's Y: The Last Man (Serialized Story). Vaughan's writing credits also include Marvel's Runaways. Also tapped for five nominations is J. H. Williams III, cited for Best Penciller/Inker on both Promethea (ABC) and the twice- nominated Desolation Jones. Promethea #32 is nominated for Single Issue and for Publication Design, for which Williams and Todd Klein were the designers. Three creators have four nominations: Alan Moore (Writer) for ABC's Promethea and Top Ten: The Forty-niners (Graphic Album-New) and for DC's Absolute Watchmen (Archival Project); Tony Harris for Ex Machina (including Cover Artist); and Kyle Baker for his two self-published efforts: Nat Turner (Limited Series, Reality- Based Work) and The Bakers (Single Issue, Writer/Artist-Humor). Among creators with three nominations are Grant Morrison (Writer) for DC's Seven Soldiers (Limited Series) and All Star Superman (New Series); Eric Powell for Dark Horse's The Goon (Short Story, Continuing Series, and Writer/Artist-Humor); Joann Sfar for The Rabbi's Cat (Graphic Album-New, U.S. Edition of Foreign Material) and Dungeon: The Early Years (U.S. Edition of Foreign Material); Seth for Drawn & Quarterly's Wimbledon Green (Graphic Album-New, Writer/Artist-Humor, Publication Design); and newcomer Frank Espinosa for Rocketo (New Series, Continuing Series, Cover Artist), published by the now-defunct Speakeasy. DC and its various imprints racked up the most company nominations, with 28 full nominations and shares of several others. Led by the nominations for Ex Machina, Desolation Jones, and Promethea, DC's WildStorm (including ABC) imprint has 16 full nominations. The DC line has 10 nominations, with 3 for the recently canceled Solo, while DC's Vertigo line has 3 full nominations. Image can boast of 10+ nominations, including two each for Fell, Eric Shanower's Age of Bronze, and the Flight 2 anthology. Drawn & Quarterly made its strongest showing ever in the Eisners, with nine nominations. In addition to Seth's Wimbledon Green, D&Q is on the ballot with Guy Delisle's Pyongyang (Reality-Based Work, Writer/Artist), Walt and Skeezix (Archival), Joe Sacco's War's End (Graphic Album-Reprint), and Adriane Tomine's Optic Nerve (Writer/Artist). Mainstream publisher Pantheon is also well represented, with eight nominations. In addition to the two for Sfar's The Rabbi's Cat, the publisher dominates in the category of Graphic Album- Reprint (Ware's Acme Novelty Library Annual Report, Charles Burns' Black Hole, Dan Clowes' Ice Haven) and in the newly created Reality-Based Work category (Marjane Satrapi's Embroideries, David B's Epileptic). Next among the publishers is Fantagraphics, with seven nominations, including nods to Mome (Anthology), Jordan Crane's The Clouds Above (Publication for a Younger Audience), and Gipi's The Innocents (Single Issue). The nominations for The Goon give Dark Horse five-plus nods, while Young Avengers (New Series, Writer-Alan Heinberg) helped Marvel snag five nominations (plus many shared ones). Top Shelf is on the ballot in five categories, including Graphic Album-New for Alex Robinson's Tricked. The remaining nominations are scattered among 30 other publishers. This year's judges made a few changes in the categories. In addition to adding Best Reality-Based Work, they split the Archival category into two (comic strips and comic books), and they eliminated the Humor Publication category, which they felt overlapped too much with the Writer/Artist-Humor category. For the Hall of Fame, the judges' choices for 2006 are Mickey Mouse cartoonist Floyd Gottfredson and Wonder Woman creator William Moulton Marston. A complete list of the nominations is provided below. The panel of judges consisted of critic Christopher Allen (Comic Book Galaxy), cartoonist/publisher John Gallangher (Buzzboy), editor Nisha Gopalan (Entertainment Weekly), product manager Robert Randle (Diamond Comic Distributors), and retailer Robert Scott (Comikaze, San Diego). Ballots will be going out in late April to comics creators, editors, publishers, and retailers. The results will be announced in a gala awards ceremony on the evening of Friday, July 21, in Ballroom 20 at the San Diego Convention Center. Sponsors for the 2006 Eisners include mycomicshop.com (major sponsor), Diamond Comics Distributors and Century Guild (principal sponsors), and Alternate Reality, Atlantis Fantasyworld, Comic Relief-The Comic Bookstore, Comics Unlimited, Flying Colors, Golden Apple, and Star*Reach (supporting sponsors). The Eisner Awards are presented under the auspices of Comic-Con International, San Diego, a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to creating awareness of and appreciation for comics and related popular art forms. primarily through the presentation of conventions and events that celebrate the historic and ongoing contributions of comics to art and culture. Jackie Estrada has been administrator of the Awards since 1990. She can be reached at jackiee@mindspring.com.
