Do Awards Mean Anything?

Johanna Draper Carlson’s ” Comics Worth Read­ing ” had a post that asked the ques­tion Do Awards Mean Any­thing?

I Think that this is a valid ques­tion, as to the idea that awards might make a dif­fer­ence in your over­all deci­sions as to comics buying.

I saw this post the other day, and did not have the time to leave a com­ment, but for my self, awards are not an influ­ence on my comics buy­ing habits.

Johanna always seems to have inter­est­ing con­tent on her site, so go over there and take a peek.

Ref­erer…

Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is pre­pos­ter­ous. He or she is like a per­son who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae…

Hi Joe­sph.
Not sure if this com­ment you left was meant for this post but.…

In gen­eral, review­ers are crit­ics, who’s job is to review a comic, or a graphic novel, and to give their opin­ion as to what they liked or dis­liked about said comic or graphic novel or even a writ­ten novel.

This is how these folks earn a liv­ing. And by the way, if I’m attack­ing a Hot Fudge Sun­day, it bet­ter have lots of whip cream and a cherry on the top okay!

Oh, and if it wasn’t meant to be here, please re-post to the cor­rect post and I will again answer.
