Poll 2013 Eisner Award Poll (35 votes)

Hawkeye 43%
Saga 40%
Manhattan Project 9%
Prophet 3%

So these are the nominations for the best continuing series category and the winner will be selected Friday but I thought Id ask the vine who they think should win

Hnn. Unsurprisingly, the only superhero nomination is Hawkeye, and even then you'd be hard-pressed to label it a superhero book. Not saying that the nominees didn't deserve it, just making an observation. Past years seemed to have been friendlier to straight-up superhero titles.

@veshark: Except Daredevil i don't think there was any other incredibly good superhero series.
The past years had better superhero stories.
Which super hero series would you nominate?

Well, as you mentioned, DD. I feel both New Avengers and Batman deserved nominations, but that's just me. Again, not critiquing the choices being made here. Just noting the lack of a traditional superhero book, is all.

USM actually got an Eisner nomination last year I think - was quite surprised by that one.

I'm really rooting for Saga. If Hawkeye wins I'll be satisfied as well, but I think Saga deserves it most

Fatale is good but I think the other titles deserve the award more.

Indestructible Hulk should've been nominated. Hope Hawkeye wins though.

Read the first trade, it was pretty interesting. Although I honestly don't know why the creator didn't use an original character instead of Prophet.

The only book I'm not reading on that list is Prophet. Guess I'll have to pick that one up. Hawkeye or Saga will probably win, you can't go wrong with either of them.

What's there not to get? It's pretty straightforward. Read it again then? :p

A sci-fi series of different Prophets (super-soldiers) on missions in the future.
