    Actually Brice, I think you should go to Bracket 2 and vote for Kingdom Come.

    Oh, and if you have to be a mormon, you couldn't find better looking wives than Lisa, Alisha, and Pam. (Of course, I'm guessing in Pam's case. She may be a troll.)

    If she's a troll she's a loveable one...and I'll keep her. I wonder if I have to wait on the wedding to see her though. I know they say it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding, but I didn't realize they meant to see her AT ALL before the wedding.


    Dude, I have honor and nobility. I can't just vote based on someone else's opinion....my vote must be bought.

    This is one of the only brackets so far in which I've read one of the contesting books. I voted accordingly.

    Preacher is great, without a doubt. Worthy of a win, hands down.

    But also to consider, if I may - Maus won a Pulitzer. I might have mentioned this previously. T-hee, t-hee.

    Also, on the great story scale is X-tinction Agenda along with Dark Phoenix, it's one of my all time favorite X-Men titles.

    That Maus won a Pulitzer is certainly of historical significance, being the first GN to do so. Still, whether it did or not is of no consequence to me. I find awards to be the meaningless result of someone else's subjective decision. They're interesting to me, but not a criterion for my evaluation. I voted for it because it's the only one I've read, but it's also the only one I've read because the others don't appeal to me, which tells me something as well.

    Weeeelllll... Maus also has the "Pam Thinks It's Great" award, but that holds even less significance than the Pulitzer.

    Actually that is considered a higher more valuable award.

    See... there's a reason that Alisha and I want to share you! You're a sweetheart, Brice! And I grant you the same award.
