The Harvey Awards Will Be Presented...
At The 2008 Baltimore Comic Con On September 27th!
This morning I received notification in my Facebook account from Charles Edward Sellner, that Visionary Studios will be attending the upcoming Baltimore Comic Con that runs from September 27th to 28th, 2008. The Visionary Studio members will have a booth and also host a panel where they will be discussing their upcoming projects. This notice from Sellner reminded me that I have not yet blogged about another facet of the Baltimore Comic Con, and that is that the 'Harvey Awards' are distributed at this Comic Con. The Harvey Awards were named in honor of the late Harvey Kurtzman. He was one of the industry's most innovative talents, of whom I have blogged about before. The Harveys recognize outstanding achievements in over 20 categories in comics and sequential art, ranging from Best Artist to the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame. They are the only industry awards both nominated by and selected by the full body of comic book professionals. If you are in the area, you might want to check out the Baltimore Comic Con that features the Visionary Studios booth / panel and the Harvey Awards. Additional Featured Guests scheduled to appear are: Bernie Wrightson, Mike Mignola, Geoff Johns, Herb Trimpe, Gene Colan, Jim Shooter, Howard Chaykin, Tim Sale... and more! Check the Con's web site at comicon.com/baltimore! ~ Michael |  Above is one of the prized Harvey Awards Statues that is representative of the ones to be distributed at the upcoming Harvey Awards Banquet on September 27th 2008. Please Note: The Banquet is on the 27th, but the Baltimore Comic Con runs both days, September 27th & 28th! The Harvey Awards Banquet will be honoring the 2008 Harvey Award Nominees and Winners with a cocktail hour, (cash bar), a steak and crabcake dinner, dessert, and the Award Ceremony hosted by Master of Ceremonies Kyle Baker. The ticket cost for the banquet alone is $90.00 which also includes a 'Hollywood-style' Gift Bag with many great items for Comics Fans.
