2018 was a year of transition, as we say goodbye to old members and hello to new ones, start looking at the site differently from what it used to be, throughout the trials and tribulations we managed to pull out great comics and hit new heights! Who will claim the most coveted and vaunted titles of last year? You decide! Just nominate your three top picks (up to three) for each category and once we tally the choices, we'll gather the majority selections of each and put them up on polls for you to vote, propelling the most-voted candidates to the Winner's Circle to claim all the bragging rights. To help you guys along, the mods have tirelessly compiled some relevant info and data to help you vote. Remember these categories are for comics and artists featured here in the year of 2018!
Voting for nominees begins on the 13th of January and will remain open for one week, at which point the nominees will be selected and presented for a final vote to determine the winners of each category, announced during the last week of January.These two stages should give you plenty of time to think critically and/or reread classics of 2018!
