'1602' wins a Quill
The inaugural Quill Awards for books have been announced, with "1602, Vol. 1" by Neil Gaiman, Andy Kubert and Richard Isanove winning the graphic novel category. The Marvel-published book beat out for the honor "American Splendor: Our Movie Year" by Harvey Pekar; "Bone: One Volume Edition" by Jeff Smith, "In the Shadow of No Towers" by Art Spiegelman and "Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return" by Marjane Satrapi. The awards were meant to reflect popular tastes and the project is supported by Reed Business Information, parent company of Publishers Weekly and Variety. The awards were given out at a gala awards show hosted by NBC News anchor Brian Williams on Tuesday in New York. The awards will be broadcast on NBC stations on Oct. 22.
