Eisner Awards 2019 - Tutti i vincitori

Al San Diego Comic-Con sono stati assegnati, come di consueto, gli Eisner Awards, il corrispettivo dei Premi Oscar del mondo dei comics USA. Ecco tutti i vincitori

Durante la notte italiana, al San Diego Comic-Con si è svolta, come di consueto, la cerimonia di premiazione degli Eisner Awards 2019, quelli che sostanzialmente vengono definiti come il corrispettivo dei Premi Oscar del mondo dei comics. Il prestigioso riconoscimento è dedicato alla memoria del grande Will Eisner, autore fondamentale nella storia del fumetto americano.

Quest’anno tra i candidati c’erano persino due italiani: il bravissimo Andrea Sorrentino, disegnatore di Gideon Falls (pubblicato negli USA dalla Image e in Italia da Bao Publishing e vincitore come “Best new series”) e la talentuosa Carita Lupattelli, autrice di Izuna Book, della Humanoids.
