The nominees for the 2006 Eisner Awards have been announced, and guess who’s been chosen by the judges for entrance in their Hall of Fame? Floyd Gottfredson!
If you don’t know Floyd Gottfredson from Moses (despite the former looking nothing like Charlton Heston), check out a great little Gottfredson biography David Gerstein put together, complete with samples of Floyd’s work from 1930-1975.
In the meantime, be on the lookout for Gottfredson’s classic Mickey Mouse tales in upcoming issues of Walt Disney’s Comics!
After this month’s assignments, I’m now a card-carryin’ member of the Gottfredson Fan Club. He was da man.
