DARK HORSE WINS RECORD
NUMBER OF DIAMOND GEM AWARDS!
MILWAUKIE, OR, JANUARY 31—Last week, Diamond Comic Distributors announced the 2013 Gem Awards, boasting a record number of accolades for Dark Horse!
While DC Entertainment topped the list with six awards, Dark Horse dominated among the independent publishers, with Dark Horse Presents winning Anthology of the Year for the second year in a row!
This year’s Dark Horse wins are as follows:
“The
comics retail community has been the backbone of Dark Horse since day
one,” said Dark Horse’s president and founder, Mike Richardson. “It is
truly an honor to have so many of our titles recognized by our retail
partners, as this is perhaps one of the best ways to measure our success
as a publisher. We thank all of the comics retailers who supported us
in 2013 and hope to do even better in 2014.”
“We
established the Gem Awards to give comic retailers an opportunity to
recognize the vendors, titles, and products that have been instrumental
in helping their businesses grow over the past year,” said Diamond’s
president and CEO, Steve Geppi, in the Gem Awards announcement. “Our
vendors work diligently to support retailers and the entire industry
with top-quality titles and products, and we thank all of the retailers
who took time from their busy schedules to vote and acknowledge those
efforts.”
Dark
Horse congratulates the editors, creators, and licensors who worked on
each of the above titles, and thanks our retail partners for making 2013
one of our most successful years ever!
