Will Eisner-award
Van Wikipedia
De Eisner Award is een van de belangrijkste prijzen welke jaarlijks wordt gegeven in de Amerikaanse comicwereld. De prijs is vernoemd naar Will Eisner als een soort van eerbetoon aan zijn baanbrekende werk. Voor iedere prijs worden comics genomineerd door een panel van 5 personen, en hierop wordt dan gestemd door mensen uit de comic-book industrie, en de prijs wordt uitgereikt tijdens de Comic-Con International conventie in San Diego, California.
