Last Friday at the San Diego Comic Con International, the winners of the 2015 Eisner Awards were announced. We at Sacred & Sequential would like to offer our congratulations to editor Sarah Lightman who took home the Eisner Award for “Best Scholarly/Academic Work” with her book Graphic Details: Jewish Women’s Confessional Comics in Essays and Interviews, published by McFarland. It’s a treat to see academics at the intersection of comics and religion take home such a prestigious industry award for their scholarship. We look forward to following such achievements as scholars delve ever further into the worlds of Jewish culture, of autobiographical comics, and of the women who make them.

On behalf of Sacred & Sequential, we wish the contributors to Graphic Details all the best and, again: Congratulations!
