Este año repetimos Comic Con virtual donde sabremos quiénes son los ganadores de los Premios Eisner 2021
Aunque el fallo del premio tendrá que esperar a la celebración de la próxima edición de la Comic Con el próximo 23 de Julio que este año también tendrá que repetir el formato virtual.
Esta edición de los premios Eisner 2021 la esperamos con más mérito todavía ya que este año 2021 hemos tenido que sufrir en nuestras carnes como lectores muchos problemas con la distribución, y aun más modificaciones en las planificaciones de las publicaciones en vigor; así que ver que uno de los mayores premios del Comic ya esta en marcha es una gran noticia.
A continuación, os informo de los diferentes nominados según su categoría, con claros favoritos que repiten en muchas categorías, y veteranos como Brubaker o James Tynion IV que son favoritos en las apuestas; pero podemos presumir de tener varios nombres españoles nominados que personalmente espero que ganen como Teresa Valero o Monteys
