2016 – Let's Discuss Nominations  
Hello again, everyone!

Now that we're officially back in business for the year, it's time to talk about nominations. As noted in the previous post, those will be open in five days, at 5 PM (PDT) on Monday, August 15, so there's time to start batting things around before then.

Feel free to talk about what you're thinking of nominating in the comments, discuss eligibility, negotiate free spaces in your nominations with other users, etc.

You're also more than welcome to pull from our collection of user-made banners from prior years, but don't let that stop you from making and posting (via comment here) your own if you feel inspired.

her Awfullest Secret (what can it possibly be, BY NOW)

EXACTLY, for fuck's sake, I mean, haven't we already had this one (The Name of the Rose and all that which was great) like three times already?

But I did love the jumping out of the helicarrier. I think I'm a couple issues behind you on that one, but man, the art was fab for sure. Oh hey do we have a Nat/Maria ship nominated yet?

There was Name of the Rose, which I actually enjoyed and I wish Liu had gotten to write MORE, and then the 2014 book ("a new ongoing series as gorgeous and mysterious as Nastasha Romanov herself!" the Marvel page says, sigh) which....was OK? I really wanted to like it? But it felt the same as the recent book, like it started off well and then went ffffzzzzzz, which is weird because Nat is such a great character. There was no there there. The individual cases they started out with were good, but the overarching plot didn't get concluded and then surprise!Last Days WTF. (I thought I hated Civil War Interruptus 1 and 2 most of all but as I get more into the comics I am LOATHING how many books got cut off by Last Days and then had to restart.)

But I did love the jumping out of the helicarrier. I think I'm a couple issues behind you on that one, but man, the art was fab for sure.

It was BEAUTIFUL, I mean, I honestly think you could take that in to some MCU executive office and go "Imagine a movie with this kind of opening." And then, Nat is pitted against Some Evil Enigmatic Dude we have never seen before and gets manipulated. OMG how many times can we see that plotline.
