The Final Four is here, and we’re almost at the end. Just one day remaining – get your votes in so we can set the final day match-ups!

Let’s get to the match-ups.

(8) Jamie S. Rich (@JamieESRich) vs. (3) Matt Fraction (@MattFraction)

Followers: 1,525 for Rich, 38,266 for Fraction

Their Work: It’s a Portland only match-up, as writers Jamie S. Rich and Matt Fraction square off. Rich is the writer of It Girl and the Atomics and the upcoming A Boy and A Girl from Oni, and he’s pretty much the coolest guy around. Fraction is damn cool himself, writing such books as Hawkeye, FF, Casanova and more. He’s also the creator of Hobo Darkseid, maybe the greatest thing on Twitter ever.

(8) Jennifer de Guzman (@jennifer_deG) vs. (7) Rob Guillory (@Rob_Guillory)

Followers: 1,695 for de Guzman, 5,927 for Guillory

Their Work: Jennifer de Guzman is a long-time (awesome) comics professional and the person who makes things work over at Image, as the PR/Marketing Director she helps get all those books to all those fifth printings.

Like the book Guillory works on, Chew. That book is a big success, and it certainly has a lot to do with the marketing. It can’t be the hilarious and consistently fantastic art of Guillory. Or the Easter Eggs he hides in every issue, making it eminently rereadable. Or the covers he’s put together that makes this one of the books that most stand out on the comic stand each month. Nope. MARKETING.
