OTHER AWARDS:
 Comic-Con Icon AwardNeil Gaiman receives second annual Comic-Con Icon Award on national TV!Comics writer, fiction author, screenwriter, and all-around nice guy Neil Gaiman was the recipient of Comic-Con’s Icon Award in October. The award was given out during part of Spike TV’s Scream Awards, which were broadcast on the cable network on October 23. 
© SDCCPhoto by Albert L. Ortega The Comic-Con Icon Award is given to an individual or organization who has been instrumental in bringing comics and/or popular arts to a wider audience. This idea ties into Comic-Con’s mission statement, which is to create awareness of, and appreciation for, comics and related popular art forms. Gaiman, whose ground breaking work on Sandman brought many new readers to comics, is also a crossover talent whose fiction and screenplays -— including both Beowulf and Stardust in 2007 -— have made him well-known beyond the comics world. This is the second year the San Diego Comic-Con has partnered with Spike TV to present the Icon Award as part of the Scream Awards telecast. The first award went to Frank Miller, whose work includes 300, Sin City, and The Dark Knight Returns. Miller, like Gaiman, is another crossover talent who is currently working on his solo directorial debut, Will Eisner’s The Spirit. We can’t think of a more perfect person to bring Will’s signature character to the screen. » Read our article on Frank Miller's Comic-Con Icon Award in 2006 |
