Comic Vine’s Wild Card of the Month: The Perfect Summer Read!
Normally, this category changes each month and a theme is chosen which shows an interesting result. However, I had received no suggestions and I had nothing so we ended up with this theme which resulted with no clear winners (unless you wanted 1-3 ranking with ties on each for each user's definition of what is the perfect summer read.
That being said, it is an interesting list.

The month of February is wonderful. It has Valentines day...also has my birthday (same day actually)...and lots of other stuff I don't mention because I'm both lazy and I can't think of other great things to list ....so anyway, like I said February is wonderful. But what was wonderful in the way of comics this month?

Back in 2011, the user known as @cosmo111687 posted the first Best of the Month Poll (September 2011). They hosted till December 2011 when they got busy and I took over the poll to post not only the December 2011 results but to host the Janaury 2012 poll.
Today, in 2014 I am happy to say I am still hosting this poll. It has been fun running this poll for the past couple years. I love hearing people's opinions and this poll is a great way to see what people like. It does take time to compile something like this (even though I've gotten it down to a science with my ready made spreadsheets), but I do love hosting. Last year I was away from the vine for a period of months and one of the things I really missed was the Best of the Month Poll.
BotM has grown from only having 5 categories to having 12 permanent categories and 1 wild card (not to mention a 13th trial permanent category). It has seen me go from being a user to being a mod, a fact which I think benefited this poll since now this poll is the longest running poll to be anchored to the forum feed.
