January 4, 2013 11:28 am Can't really argue with Image being the leader. As for runner-up it's a toss-up for me between Fantagraphics, Top Shelf and Dark Horse Dark Horse has put out some great new series this year like Mind MGMT, the new Brian Wood Conan and 47 Ronin, they're also killing it with everything in the Mignolaverse. I'm also loving the digitally discounted (after a month+bundling) Dark Horse Presents, at that price it's an absolute killer value. All that plus new mini's by Peter Bagge and Gilbert Hernandez? Great year for Dark Horse. Top Shelf have been releasing new (and back-catalog) digital books for insanely low prices every week, I've bought at least one Top Shelf book every week this year and haven't been let down once. I've read a ton of new (to me) James Kochalka, Jeffrey Brown and dozens of creators. They are easily one of the most consistently fantastic publishers around. Fantagraphics has had one hell of a year releasing great new OGNs like Barack Hussein Obama, The Hypo, Athos in America and Black Lung, they release some of the highest quality collections of old material like Walt Kelly's Pogo, Krazy & Ignatz, Prince Valiant and the Complete Crumb and they're the home of Love and Rockets. No one cares as much about the history of comics as them and very few publishers can touch their level of quality when it comes to new material. Also they've finally started releasing some stuff digitally (although it's usually too expensive for my tastes) It's been a great fucking year for me as a comic fan :)

November 19, 2012 12:35 pm "Worse" than the $3.99 cover price is Marvel charged $5 an issue once they collect them in premium hardcovers. $20 for 4 issues of Wolverine and the X-Men? It's a great book, but COME ON.

November 17, 2012 11:00 pm AMAZING! (especially Marsha and Darwyn dancing/kissing!) Big congrats to Marsha and Darwyn. All the tweets from Vegas made things seem like a huge blast :)
