okay, so i finally finished writing the blog posts for the 2008 ghettoManga Award Winners!the awards usually drop in february, but with the new baby and freelance project, came late this year. awards are handed out for excellence in comics, hipHop, art and popular culture. nominees were selected by myself and anyone who wanted to write in, and winners were selected by fan votes. thanks again to all the people who contributed or voted (and especially to all the nominees for goin' hard in '08!) in the biggest gMa's yet!
this year's Winners will each receive a greeting card with the gMa trophy design ("Cupid" seen here) on it and their name and the award they won (assuming i can get a mailing address for them). eventually, we will start giving out actual trophies...
