You can nominate your favourite Australian comic or creator from 2006 for the Ledger Awards.
Here are my thoughts on last years output, which might jog your memory.
Nominations are closed June 30.
Ledger of Honor
Foreign Creator of the Year
Best Foreign Comic Series or Graphic Novel of the Year
Talent Deserving Wider Recognition
Artist of the Year
Writer of the Year
Independent Press Title of the Year
Small Press Title of the Year
Story or Single Issue of the Year
Webcomic or Comic Strip of the Year
Production Design of the Year
Retailer of the Year
Achievement of the Year
There's a slight disappointment that the "talent deserving wider recognition" and "Small press" are no longer relevant; meaning that the vibrant underground ziney books will get looked over for the more swish "American floppy comic" version but both categories always caused problems on who could be nominated.
So go nominate, even if you don't believe in awards, its the recognition that counts.
