When, I think of someone who is the best overall member in terms of total comic book understanding that I truly have a no problems understanding him because he writes so well and convey his thoughts with clarity. I wished he post more but, when I read his posts - I learned a thing or two about him and he truly has the spirit of the best overall member.
The Name that I'm nominating is The Captain ... one of my favorite member here in CCF Land.

I know he will be reluctant to accept even a nomination, but that is just one reason among many he's worthy of it.
He's our guiding light, the Moses of this band of exiles, the Father of this Undiscovered Country, an equal-opportunity comics lover, a sincere, dedicated, caring individual, a Mr. Sine Qua Non himself...
Shaxper!

I nominate Confessor, because he's knowledgable about many subjects and is kind in his discourse with others.

I nominate thwhtguardian. He brings amazing civility and thoughtfulness to debates, is so supportive of others, and is always a class act. Additionally, as a mod, he does so much behind the scenes to make sure things run smoothly here and to ensure that all members are treated fairly and respectfully. I often wish I was as wise, patient, considerate, and kind as he.

I'd like to nominate Roquefort Raider, as he contributes so much in so many ways to the site-from the SSOC review thread, the the work he does as a mod, to his creative work on his own comics, to participation in some of the gem threads, etc. etc. His footprint on this site is very large indeed. Plus he's not a banana tyrant -M

This is a tough category...there are so many folk here who I really do think exemplify the spirit of the CCF. I've been mulling this over for a day or two and I'm gonna nominate Prince Hal because he's never anything less than kind and civil in his posts, he's highly knowledgeable on a range of subjects (not just vintage funny books), and his posts often have a level of insight, humour or empathy to them that all of us here should try to emulate.
