Via comics we learned about the recent nominations to the prestigious Harvey Awards, with some highlights. For my part I am delighted that The Sixth Gun is nominated in the fat categories, as they are best screenwriter (Cullen bunn), best cartoonist (Brian hurtt) and best new series. After having enjoyed a long time with The damnI'm looking forward to reading this new work that introduces itself into the western genre. In addition, when it comes to ours, there are several nominees, such as the great Marcos Martin as best cover artist, the color of Jose Villarubia for Cuba: My revolution, or the American editions of Torpedo by Jordi Bernet, and Blacksad de Juan Diaz Canales y Juanjo Guarnido placeholder image.
