Determining who has made the Comic Books category really shine was equal parts difficult and easy. There have been half a dozen clubs that have emerged, and they’re all wonderful! There have been some very engaging topics that have allowed everyone to chime in and share their thoughts. But all of these clubs, and the vibrancy of the category, would not be possible with the tireless efforts and inspiration of four- that’s right, FOUR - wonderful leaders in our community. It is my privilege to support the efforts of @MattMcDonald, @JLWWSM, @Don-El, and @ Nathan.Payson. :notes::crown::notes::crown::notes::crown::notes::crown::notes:

These fine folks have been with us since Day One of Year One, every freaking week. Their passion has led each of them, in their own way, into creating an oasis of participation in the face of technical challenges, and a brand-new sweet baby angel community. They have all forged new paths and done it with grace and good humor. I couldn’t be more proud of our community, and I can’t imagine our community without you. Please keep your eyes peeled for a token of our gratitude in the next week or so. :heart:

I may have literally started clapping and saying yes when I saw those four names! Luckily I am at home!

@JLWWSM and @MattMcDonald, I have made my feelings about you both known already, but you both make these forums such a beautiful inviting place. I love that I have gotten to meet you both. You both have beautifully kind souls.

@Don-El, you have provided some of the best comic recommendations to me this year! You truly are one of my favorite people on these forums. Sorry, I have been missing in discord lately, but I hope we get to catch up soon!

@Nathan.Payson your passion for DC shows in every post you make in the comic section! Your intelligence shines through in every single one! I have enjoyed seeing your rebirth posts the most though this year.

You four truly deserve every recognition you get and so much more!!! This made my heart so happy today.

I’m thinking there will be some nice communication tools with Community 2.0 in the next month as well, similar to Discord.
