I admit I did vote twice for best writer - completely by mistake though. And strangely for different people!

Because what you really need is more categories...I suggest next year you split up Best Publisher between big & small so then you could have a discussion/give props to some of the lesser known/less prolific publishers like Action Lab or AfterShock comics. Also, maybe in addition to Best New Series, you could do a Best Debut Issue to cover stuff that is just starting at the end of the year and doesn't have enough breadth to compete with books that have been out for a while (but this is really just because I wanted to vote for both The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl AND Monstress).

After voting I've noticed I lean a lot to wards Thor Lazarus Image Sunstone, And their respective creators.

I mean, I know the show is heavily in favor of stjepan sejic but the results of these polls are astoundingly one sided. I call foul play!

Kind of got the urge to vote for my favorite nominees again and again, since I know I can, but I'll resist that urge and accept the fact that Sejic is going to win every category he's nominated in.Not that I have anything against him, I haven't read much of his work, but what I read I liked, and I will read more of his work in the future, but in my opinion he was nominated a bit too much, which is a unpopular opinion, I know.
Having said that, I liked listening to the nomination shows, as I always do.I know it can't be easy doing these every year, but aside from the one thing I just talked about I thought you did a pretty good job with the nominees.

I call foul play! holy recount, batman! just looked at the current results and I want to go on the record as saying despite my earlier suspicious post I had nothing to do with inflating any vote totals ... not that I don't agree with the results (spoiler: I do!)

Well, as they used to say back in the days of Mayor Richard Daley's Chicago Democratic machine: "Vote early...and often!"
Seriously, I just looked at the numbers, and they are stunning! Remember though, that the polls are open until 7 PM tomorrow, and if those who favor different books or creators show the same commitment to placing their votes as the "Sej-ites", it could change in a heartbeat!

A big thanks to Steve for nominating Valiant & Bob for nominating IDW (even if both didn't make the final cut) for best publishers in 2015. I found myself buying way more titles from these two publishers then ever before in 2015, really glad they got a bit of R-E-S-P-E-C-T as the great Ms. Aretha Franklin would say. You had me real nervous & yelling at my car radio when it looked liked Netflix's Dare-Devil was NOT even going to make the final nomination list. Geez Guys, I'm an Old Man, I don't need that extra stress in my life. Also, Silver Surfer & Allred fans, come out & support that latest Silver Surfer run which was simply Outstanding! I say vote Matt Murdoch & Norrin Radd in 2015!!!
