American Vampire wins the Eisners!

The unbelieveble happened. We DID won the Eisners.

At the moment I was so nervous that didnt know what to say.I can't remember what I said. But, I'll now, thank everybody that deserves praise for this.

First of all, the master of horror, Stephen King, who brillantly collaborated with a phenomenal Skinner Sweet origin story, and, I'm sure, have a crucial importance in the recognizement of the book.We couldnt have a better godfather for the book.

Dave McCaig. I dont understand why ha was not nominated as best colorist, but i know, he is the best in the business right now. BEST ONE. I couldnt be more honored of being working with a color monster like this.

Will Dennis. The guy who got me into the project. The guy who trusted in my work, even seeing mainstreen stuff like Blue Beetle and Superman/Batman believed that i could do something totally different, against all odds.

Karen Berger. She is though, i always had fear of her, until met her. She is simply amazing, and i have never seen anybody who cares about her people as she does. Pleased to be "one of yours".

Special thanks to my co-workers and big friends Mark Doyle and Scott Snyder.

I have written about Mark before. He is the guy who pushed me in getting something better, ALL the time. Sometimes im lazy. He doesnt let me. He is the guy who fights me to do the best thing, but as well, i know he fights for me to do the best thing, and that, makes him the best editor I have ever worked with.

What else can i say about Scott? I am an only child, but Scott is like my brother. We simply "cliked" since the begining. We have the same ideas for vampires. Is a guy who shares all the ideas with me. Not only American Vampire, but also Batman, Iron Man and everything else he does. I have never seen anybody as excited about work in comics as he is. Its contagious.

Guys.I'm glad to share this award with all of you.

Im glad to share this award with everybody who voted for us.

Im glad to share this award with everybody who read the book. The ones who liked and the owned who didint as well. Just for giving us the chance.

Thank you all who believed in vampires that dont sparkle.

Rafa.
