Valiant Has More Harvey Awards Nominations Than Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, Boom And IDW Put Together

unnamed (1)Valiant always does well in Harvey Awards nominations. But this is off the chart, with 50 nominations, including categories Humour, Domestic Reprint and Best Graphic Album in which they had all but one of the nominations.

In comparison, Boom! had 15, Dark Horse had 5, IDW had 4, Image had 11, Marvel had 10 and DC had 3… add those up and that's 48, two fewer than Valiant…

Final ballots are available at www.harveyawards.org and the Harvey Awards will be presented at the Baltimore Comic Con, September 3rd 2016.
