Who are the Eagles Initiative Judges?

It is a testament to the hard working professionals in the comics industry, whether they be creators, editors, retailers, commentators, festival organisers, academics or fans, that they see the value in seeking out and developing tomorrows best talent. As such, we at Initiative HQ are immensely grateful for the support shown for the Initiative itself in the last few months, and for the following individuals who have agreed to join the Initiative judging panel, with even more signing up every day. For the details of how they will be involved in judging submissions, check out the Submissions page.
