This Saturday, the Harvey Award winners were announced! Some of you may remember a month or so ago, David and I sat down and debated some of the nominations, but were we right? Well, we’ll say we were almost there. As always, the comics that won are stellar, and if you’re looking for a new book to check out, take a look at the winners behind the cut. These are books worth reading, folks. Congratulations to all the winners!
