Both those wins are well-deserved.

Nice, so the Jimmy book is a good one? I'll pick it up soon, I just got the trade of Venditti's Man of Tomorrow.

Is Lois Lane's book by Rucka good?

Jimmy's book is as close to "All Star Jimmy Olsen" as anything could possibly be.

Rucka's Lois Lane starts out pretty great but eventually she gets sidelined in her own book in favour of the Question.

Fraction Jimmy is one of the best comics I’ve read, not just Superman or superhero. It’s hilarious and was a much needed boost in spirit for me.

Lois… not so much. It’s ok but it basically shifts focus to Renee and Rucka’s favorites over prioritizing Lois. I think the reason why is originally the two series were supposed to be ongoing and then later they were downgraded to minis. Fraction adapted fine but Rucka didn’t.

I recommend Dial H for Heroes or Wonder Twins if you haven’t read those and want more Superman adjacent content. Dial H is the best Multiversity sequel we will ever get.

Cool, I'll grab SMPJO next time I'm at my LCS, shame about Lois' book.

I've been interested in DHfH for a while, but I think I'll have to order that one online. Speaking of Multiversity, I mentioned that book in a long list of recommendations to my roommate, he bought it recently and I'm looking forward to seeing what he thinks of it.

No mention of the creatives who ACTUAL won. Classy.

I don't begrudge Jorge Jiminez for doing Batman. The money he makes from doing Batman is much higher than anything he could make on Superman, particularly when you take royalties into consideration.
