From coast to coast, Canada is home to many of the comic book industry's top talents. The JOE SHUSTER AWARDS are a way of recognizing and celebrating the achievements of Canadian creators - past, present and future." Hey fellow Canadians, check out the nominees at www.joeshusterawards.com and vote if you feel so inclined! My good friend Doug Wheatley is nominated in the best artist category, for his work on Star Wars Dark Times, which I am priveleged to color!

Thank you Vee, but colorists are often still considered very low on the creator totem pole, right above the letterer and the guy who puts in the staples! It would be nice if they included the category, but it wouldn't go to me. Canada is a hot bed of talented colorists; I know at least half a dozen in my town alone!
