Congrats to Jim Starlin who will join Jolly Blackburn and Ben Edlund as the 2022 EYG Hall of Fame NGD Award.

Thanks to all who voted.

Still tied with the poll set to end tomorrow morning.  Anyone able to break the tie?

I sure hope this does not end in another tie.  Please vote!!!!

Happens every year....

We will induct three comic creators in the NGD Award.  The top two vote getters so far have been Jolly Blackburn and Ben Edlund.  They have been inducted.

However, we need a third one and we have a four way tie.

So... we are going to have a TIE BREAKER vote.  

You can vote for ONE of the four creators.  The poll will not run for long.  Who ever has the most votes will join Jolly Blackburn and Ben Edlund in this year's NGD Award.

Just over a half hour left to vote

3 days left

Voting is underway.

Jolly Blackburn has an early lead, which is a cool story since he has been so close for the last couple of years.

So, after having our nomination process finished, here are the 12 possible choices for the NGD Award for 2022.  

You may vote for up to 4 comic creators.  

This poll will run from tonight until Thursday, November 3rd at 5 PM.

Thank you for the support.

Okay, the nomination process is done.  I will have the poll up with the finalists later tonight.

There are 12 finalists and you will vote for your top 3.

As a question, are the artists from Mad Magazine eligible here (like Al Jaffee, Don Martin and Sergio Aragones ... though Aragones also did the Groo comic book so he might be eligible for that)?  I can see that going either way.

For Mad magazine artists, I would not consider them "comic creators".  Although Sergio Aragones is already in the Hall of Fame.  He went in before the NGD Award came about.

And I'll second J Michael Straczynski

Starting off with some potential nominees

Jim Aparo

Ben Edlund

Bill Sienkiewicz

Good day to everyone here at NGD!

As some of you may know, I run a website called Embrace Your Geekness and at that website, we have a Hall of Fame.  We do a poll every year where we at EYG nominate several items, people, characters, movies etc. and the top vote getters are inducted into the EYG Hall of Fame.

This is the EYG Hero Games NGD Award that we do every year (this is the seventh year for this award)

How this works:

I am looking for nominations from the community of NGD for the best comic book artists or comic book writers of all time.

I would ask that you nominate those creators who you think have done enough work that they could be enshrined in the EYG Hall of Fame.  I require that those artists/writers be nominated by one poster and seconded by another in order to make the final poll

After that, I will take those nominees who have been seconded and place them into a poll.  The top three creators in vote total will be inducted under the "Hero Games Forum NGD Award". 

We do have a few comic creators already in the EYG Hall of Fame.  Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, Will Eisner, Osamu Tezuka, George Perez, Kurt Busiek, Chris Claremont, Neil Gaiman, Bill Finger, Bob Kane, Shuster & Seigel, Sergio Aragones, Carmine Infantino, Walt Simonson, John Romita Sr., Marv Wolfman, Marie Severin, Roy Thomas, Steve Gerber, Joe Kubert, John Byrne, William Moulton Marston, Mark Gruenwald, Peter David, Jim Shooter, Alan Moore, Hayao Miyazaki, Gail Simone, Alex Ross, Neal Adams, and Louise Simonson are already members of the EYG Hall of Fame so I will not take any nominations for them.

I am going to open the nomination and seconding process up and will allow it to run until October 28 at 6 PM Eastern. I will then put up a poll for the NGD to vote for the nominees.

I appreciate your involvement in this process.  The Non-Gaming Discussion board has always been an awesome place with some wonderful people.  I have enjoyed my time here.  That is why I wanted to get the input from you for this award for the EYG Hall of Fame, which is something that I have really been proud of doing for all these years.

Thank you for your time and consideration in this process.

Oh, by the way...  please only nominate those individuals who made their fame in the realm of comic books, not comic strips.
