 This marks DC's fourth Win in a row Source: Newsarama Each year Diamond Comics Distributors names their Diamond Gem Awards to Publishers based on "quality, creativity, and overall sales impact". The nominations are then voted on by comic book specialty retailers that subscribe to Diamond's service. DC Comics has once again swept away the prestigous Publisher of the Year for the "Over 4% Market Share" category. DC Comics also took the Backlist Publisher of the Year Award. When reached for comment, a Marvel representative stated "we have high hopes for next year when Diamond hopefully will add a category we can win in, like Marketing Strategy Most Likely Developed By Catty Teenage Girls".

Their question - challenge, as it were - to us non fans of the reboot was how do we reconcile this accolade and sales successes with our dislike of the current product my simple answer was to only buy DC trades from before the reboot, and not buy any new DC product I know NuDC has its fans, but I also really scratch my head when people crow about sales - especially Justice League This is a title that has been sabatoged by editorial for years, dating all the way back to the 'every creator's got a great arc' era after Kelley's run (which I liked). There was a blip there when Metzler got his dream year, but right after that DC basically screwed over McDuffie, and at the end they had Robinson writing a mort/c-lister league. Gee, then they put their biggest guns and best creators on the book in the reboot, and it sells well? Go figure. Congrats to DC on the win - I guess. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to read my BATO trade. Love me some Barr and Aparo. |

Seems legit. |

Well, if you are considering the free drugs and hookers that DC must be plying...then yes. Agreed. It's literally the only answer. |

On another note, I wonder if Diamond is surprised this didn't cause more controversy. They hadn't considered that no one cared enough about the awards to get too mad about who won. |
