CLICK HERE to go to the ballot for the Wizard Fan Awards. The results will be announced at Wizard World Chicago.

Then go come back here and discuss your choices, or if you feel that someone was missing from the ballot.

Here is a rundown of who I voted for:

Favorite Writer: Gail Simone - I really enjoyed Birds of Prey and Villains United better than Infinite Crisis, Green Lantern, and Teen Titans.

Favorite Penciller: Ethan Van Sciver - the art in GL:Rebirth was amazing, this guy really needs to be on a Batman book, thumb through the series, Batman is always in shadow, very cool

Favorite Cover Artist: Michael Turner - the choices could be better here, Turner was the best from the ones listed

Fovorite Inker: Scott Williams - All Star Batman and Robin looks great, but Jim Lee's pencils aren't the same without Williams's inks

Favorite Painter: Alex Ross - no one does it better than Ross

Favorite Colorist: Jeremy Cox - I didn't pick up any of the other titles listed

Favorite Letterer: Nick Napolitano - he also did all the issues of Infinite Crisis, I am surprised that this category exists

Favorite Editor - I think that I left this blank, I am not all that thrilled with All Star, and I haven't been reading the other stuff

Favorite Male Hero: Blue Beetle - what little I have seen has made Beetle a better character than Jordan or Nightwing have been in the past year. hopefully the new creative teams on Nightwing will be better than what we have had

Favorite Female Hero: Power Girl - went from being third stringer to pivotal point of the Crisis last year

Favorite Villain: Max Lord - just as lethal and dangerous as Superboy Prime without the whining

Favorite Supporting Character: Alfred - no brainer

Favorite Ongoing Series: Teen Titans - only one I read

Favorite One-Shot: Countdown to IC - again only one I read, but cool none the less

Favorite Miniseries: Villains United - the best of the prelude to Infinite Crisis minis, just a lot of fun

Favorite Publisher: DC - that should be obvious

Favorite Comic Merchandise: blank - not really been amused with any of those things

Favorite Action Figure Line: Alex Ross' Justice - iconic neutrally posed figures, just doesn't get much better

Favorite Comic Movie Project: Batman Begins - no reason needed here either

Favorite Breakout Talent: Ed Benes - I just really like his art, Frank Cho is a very close second

Comics' Greatest Moment 2005: Wonder Woman kills Max Lord - I personally didn't see it coming

Fovorite TV Show: JLU - classic comic stories with a modern spin superhero shows don't get much better than this

Favorite DVD Release: Batman Two Disc SE - a much needed update on a classic movie, Begins needed a DVD as good as this one turned out

Favorite Video Game: Batman Begins - this is the only one I played
