Do you think manga should earn stronger recognition at awards like the Eisners, or do you think they need their own awards? Why? If you were going to create manga awards, how would you do it?

I'd like to see manga have it's own awards. Perhaps it would be people involved in the industry voting for works other than those they themselves have been involved with.

It also seems like the more prestigious and (usually) less popular works get the nominations-- which is cool that they get more recognition than they do with the regular manga crowd, but I think what I really wish would happen is that the comics crowd gets interested in more mainstream manga, and that the mainstream manga crowd gets more into those prestigious titles.

But maybe that's a pipe dream.
