Rebellion Publishing and 2000 AD have been recognized by the committee for the 2024 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards in two categories.
The awards are given out each year at San Diego Comic Con, and recognise the outstanding works in comics and graphic novel publishing across the prior year.
Rebellion’s 2024 Eisner Award nominations are:
- Best Archival Collection/Project – Comic Books: The Ballad of Halo Jones Full Colour Omnibus Edition by Alan Moore, Ian Gibson and Barbara Nosenzo, edited by Olivia Hicks
- Best Comics-Related Book: I Am The Law: How Judge Dredd Predicted Our Future by Michael Molcher

“We are thrilled to have two Eisner nominations this year,” said Ben Smith, Rebellion’s Head of Publishing. “The dedication and commitment behind these books from everyone who worked on them cannot be underplayed. Rebellion is exceptionally proud of the work we do to preserve, curate and contextualise the ongoing history of comics.”
“Both of these books show not just how important it is to give classics the best design and production treatment, but how Halo Jones and Judge Dredd are even richer when the reader can find the context in which they were first published alongside deep insight into the ongoing impact they have on readers and society at large. We are delighted for our nominees and for the creators whose work they illuminate.”
Rebellion look forward to celebrating alongside industry colleagues at Comic-Con International: San Diego in July. We would also like to congratulate Bryan Talbot, who will be inducted into the Eisner Hall of Fame at this year’s ceremony.
