The most entertaining part of the evening was the montage of videos that didn't win this year's Fan Video contest. They even showed the Lego Spider-Man video. It sounded great and looked terrific on the larger screen. But hasn't most everyone seen this on the web by now? After all, in the WildStorm panel earlier in the day, about three quarters of the room raised their hands when Jim Lee asked who actively got their comics news on the web. The netizens are out there.
Most awkward moment of the night came when JLA/AVENGERS won an award. Dan DiDio and Joe Quesada got up on stage to accept the awards, each receiving a little statuette. Quesada talked first, with DiDio noticeably hiding in the back corner of the stage. Then Quesada retreated to the opposite corner of the stage while DiDio gave his acceptance speech. After that, Quesada waited for DiDio to leave the stage first, then let award presenter John Cassady follow him before walking off himself. If it's anything like the Eisners, they usually like to take winners' pictures backstage after the award presentation. I'd love to see what that picture looked like.

The Loeb/Lee BATMAN continued to dominate the awards, winning for artist, inker, letterer, colorist and ongoing.
