Best Villain: The Joker
I'd almost agree with this, solely based on Morrison's "Clown at Midnight" Joker. He had some fantastic dialogue throughout R.I.P and I just love the way Grant portrayed him. However, my vote goes to Dr. Hurt/The Black Glove.
Best Hero: Batman
After the film, and Morrison's much hyped run, is this any surprise? Can't say I disagree, but I can't lie and say it isn't personal bias on my part. After all, I fell in love with R.I.P and Dini's 'Tec run wasn't bad.
Best Collection: Fables: Covers by James Jean
Never read Fables, so I have no comments.
Best Original Graphic Novel: Joker
I didn't really like Joker at all, but I haven't read another Original Novel all year. So I guess I agree, even though the book kind of stunk, save for a few parts here and there.
Best Comic Book Movie: The Dark Knight
No surprise and no disagreement here.
Best Collectible: Bank Robber Joker
This figure really is flawless, so I agree.
Best Indy Book: I Kill Giants
Best New Book: Guardians of the Galaxy
Best Mini Series: Magneto: Testament
I've gotta check this out soon.
Best Cover: Superman #680
I disagree, since I personally love a lot of the R.I.P and Heart of Hush covers.
Best Single Issue: All-Star Superman #10
Haven't read it, still working on the first Volume of All-Star.
Best Arc: "The Man Who Bought America" in Captain America
Obviously my vote is for R.I.P.
Best Moment: Norman Osborn Loses His $%&^ in Thunderbolts #120
Best Publisher: Marvel Comics
Couldn't disagree more, especially after finishing Secret Invasion.
Best Writer: Geoff Johns
My vote goes to Grant.
Best Artist: Olivier Coipel
I prefer Tony Daniel's work, but it was often inconsistent. Meh.
Best Ongoing Series: Thor
So, there you have it. IGN's best of 2008 awards. Your thoughts?
