Harvey Nomination

Hunh. “X-Factor” has been nominated for a Harvey for best new series. I’m fairly sure it’s the first time that anything I’ve worked on has gotten a Harvey nomination. Who’d've thought?

    Please, your stuff is gold.

  • Tom Spurgeon says:

    Peter, The Incredible Hulk -1 was nominated for best single story in 1998.

    And congratulations on this year’s nomination.

  • tenassian says:

    Congratulations, Peter. After the last issue, I’d definitely agree with them. I think you’ve really hit your stride with this, and I’m eager to see where you are going to go with this series. And nice codename for Layla Miller, too.

  • David says:

    Congratulations on the nomination! I’ve been mulling whether to pick the X-Factor tpb (Sorry no monthly, I’m trying to keep a budget) but now it’s a buy.

    By the way, when are you going to do another ‘What do ya want to know?(sp)’?I have so many questions!

    And the solicits for Fallen Angel are looking very interesting…

  • David says:

    And Another Thing…

    With G4’s rebranding, shouldn’t they televise The Harvey’s?

    My two cents,

    1.6 American,

    Bloody little good pence.

  • Elayne Riggs says:

    Congrats, Peter! The Harvey nominators made some very interesting choices this year, lots of names I haven’t seen on previous lists.

  • Bill Mulligan says:

    Congratulations! Well earned.

  • Queen Anthai says:

    Congratulations, Peter!

    (But I still won’t be happy until FALLEN ANGEL wins one. *wink*)

    Well, me, for one. You’re a damn good writer.

  • Craig J. Ries says:

    Neat!

    You deserve far many more nominations for awards than you’ve been getting.

  • Mike Smith says:

    Well deserved. I got into the comics for the art. You kept me reading them when they switched to a “less talented” artist.

    On a separate note, would you be interested in doing some dialog and plot writing for an indie video game? Let me know.

    Thanks!

    Congrats, Peter. But who gives out/votes on the Harveys. Professionals? Fans? Critics? The Shriners?

    Well, duh! Obviously, anyone named Harvey.

  • Steve says:

    Congrats Peter! It’s well deserved.

  • gvalley says:

    Well deserved. Congratulations, hope you win.

  • Congratulations Peter, it’s well earned! No, I never would have thought you’d be nominated for a Harvey, but I’d never *heard* of the Harveys before. Now that I have, I can’t see how you *couldn’t* be nominated, given the quality of your work :)

  • Johanna says:

    The Harveys are selected by votes of comic professionals. More information can be found at http://www.harveyawards.org .

  • Stéphane Garrelie says:

    Congrats

  • Jess Willey says:

    Well, duh! Obviously, anyone named Harvey.

    Would explain American Splendor’s many nods. How many other Harvey’s out there. Aside from ghosts in a phonebook.

    And on that note– Wouldn’t Ghosts in a Phonebook be a great sequel to Snakes on a Plane?

  • Chris Grillo says:

    But when will you win the ever-conveted Wizard Awards?

    Hehe.

    Congratulations! The nomination is well deserved, and not just for X-Factor.

  • Brian Douglas says:

    Congrats!

  • mike "shaggy says:

    groovy!

    i too am waiting for the TPB – darn budgeting! but you’re brilliant, man! no worries!

  • Doug says:

    Congrats!

    X-Factor also is also the only X-book that I’m currently reading.

    Keep up the great work!

  • Den says:

    Very cool, Peter.

    Congrats.

  • CCR says:

    I had no idea what a Harvey Award was until I looked it up. Congrats!

  • Sean Scullion says:

    The fact that the nomination (and the hopeful win) is well-deserved has been pretty well established. You are one of the few writers out there whose work I always enjoy. (Thinking about the phaser-proof vest always makes me smile, and with the month I’ve been having, I’ve needed it.) Kinda nice when your work is appreciated, ain’t it?

  • Luke K. Walsh says:

    Allow me add my congratulations, PAD! The great work you’ve been producing deserves all the recognition it can get.

    Doug wrote:

    “X-Factor also is also the only X-book that I’m currently reading.”

    It may soon also be mine as well, as Claremont is leaving Uncanny X-Men again :( :( (Oh, wait – there is still Astonishing. For however long they’ll still be prodcing that. Still, still bummed about Uncanny.)

    And – Tom Spurgeon, that’s good to hear about Incredible Hulk -1! While many to most comics used the Flashback gimmick for throwaway stories, you, PAD, presented a pivotal tale, crucial to the on-going series – and one of the best Hulk issues ever, really. Nice to know that other creators recognized that, too.

  • Luke K. Walsh says:

    Ouch. That sentence should read “It may soon be my only one as well”, not the “also as well” mess I somehow put in there.

  • dave w. says:

    It’s about time. CONGRATS to one of my favorite writers. The order may change, but my top five always seem to be: you. Gerber, Ellison, Vonnegut, King.

  • Shar says:

    I am more surprised that you hadn’t won one before now than that you are nominated for X-Factor! Bout time they got it right! I happy for you so congrats! The only reason why i am collecting X-Factor is due to your previous run with it and it is the ONLY X-title i have on my pull list. I may pick up an issue of Ultimate x-men or Astonishing or Uncanny, but i am in no way devoted to it like i am to X-factor and will wait months for those with complete patience unlike X-Factor.

    Also, i just picked up Fallen Angel and Spike vs. DRacula #3 and loved both. Can’t wait for more.

  • TCJohnson says:

    Does this mean you will be coming to Baltimore COmicon?

  • francotiger says:

    Surely you jest.Humbleness aside, this is long overdue.Congrats.

  • spiderrob8 says:

    Didn’t check this series out, but maybe I should. All the X stuff kinda blends together on the stands.
