Estoy completamente enamorada del arte de Amy Hadley y esperaba por lo menos una nominación aunque me sorprendieron con tres, me conformo con que gane una, aunque como pueden ver tengo conflicto de intereses.
Como todo los años en que ha participado James Jean fue nominado. Y de veras que si se lo ha merecido, en mi opinión sus portadas no solo son bellas sino que logran condesar lo que veremos en el interior sin spoilear.
¿Todd Klein no fue nominado este año? ¿Y eso?
Neta que quisiera que ganara Monster en continuing series solo para variar.
