I nominate codystarbuck for this award. He has surprised me with this deep understanding of the history and the important creators that have made this hobby great. It's more than a surface knowledge and it's illuminating to read his posts.

I'd like to nominate @mrp , whose knowledge of comics as an art form is impressive enough, but whose command of the business and marketing side of comics is wide-ranging and always informative. His answers are logical, clear, insightful, and, more often than a not, a bracing shot of reality to those of us who sometimes think that a combination of nostalgia and wishful thinking equal a good business plan.

Crimebuster. Because he busts crime. He doesn't have a lot to say but when he does it is insightful, intelligent & full of information.

In the Classic Comics Discussion Sub-Board - sabongero, has started so many threads and he's really into Comic Books and having said that -- his knowledge of DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and major others publishers -- is outstanding that he's takes care of things (and explained them quite clearly) and I've learned so many things that I just lost count(s) of things that he shared with us. I'm in loss of words in describing the knowledge that he shared with us.

I nominate Slam Bradley, not only do I enjoy his insight on books and film but his occasional legal advice also adds spice to any discussion.

I am nominating Roquefort Raider for the Uatu. His background as a scientist and as a cartoonist brings a unique, informed opinion to many of the conversations he participates in, and his knowledge of the Hyborian Age and the works of Howard is superb, as demonstrated in many threads such as the annotated SSOC thread. His areas of knowledge are broad and deep, making him supremely qualified for this award. -M
