Wow. And here I thought I was being pushy just for mentioning "X-Factor #39" for best single issue. And I wasn't even bringing up "Fallen Angel Reborn" for best limited series. Guess I can't compete with you guys for chutzpah.PAD
Okay, so we're a little sensitive about being shut out for the Eisners this year. And since the year before that, we took ourselves out of Eisner contention because one of our reviewers was on the judging panel, we figured a "for your consideration" post wasn't going too far.
