Another tough decision on who to nominate as so many folks here are knowledgeable about our beloved addition: comic books. After much deliberation I am nominating Farrar as more often than others he jumps in quickly with information and thoughts on everything from old to new.

That was going to be my pick, so I am delighted to second Farrar again.

This is one I could nominate a few people for. But I'm not allowed. Because I'm an oppressed majority.
That said. I'll nominate @mrp for his knowledge of the business side of the funnybook business and his willingness to tell it like it is, not how we want it to be. Oh...and toys. And other things.

Cei-U! I summon the much needed perspective!

I second mrp.
He answered all my licensing questions about the various toys, action figures, busts, etc. Which made it easier for me to work out what is what. And the business side has taught me a thing or two.
I think business can be a dry subject, but he delivers it in an engaging way.

When I checked in here, I figured I'd nominate whichever of my top three hadn't been named.
So I'm going to have to go with the remaining member of that trinity: cody starbuck, an endless fount of information. The depth and breadth of his knowledge on subjects comics-related and otherwise are impressive enough, but he always, always dispenses said knowledge without a hint of superciliousness.
Always look forward to his threads and posts.

I nominate Rob Allen. He is so often sharing critical knowledge throughout the community, and not just in regard to Roy Thomas and Alter Ego I learn a lot from him and always look forward to his further contributions and clarifications.

I second Rob Allen. Too often he has been in the shadow of Cei-U. They are like Starsky and Hutch.

This could go on forever because of the amount of knowledge the members on this forum have , but I'll nominate tarkintino . He more than holds his own in a variety of subjects and he adds a lot to historical discussions on comics , often adding the opposing side of statements made. That's a good thing.
