So in 2011, I began – unbeknownst to anyone, including me – to consider nominations for the 1st ever Eric Shonborn Year End of the Year Award. A lot of people were considered, but there could only be one winner:
JB Sapienza!
JB is a renaissance man with many talents and ventures, including co-running the website Rejected by Covered, being a cartoonist, making videos, and, as far as I’m concerned, being the guy in charge of the documentary MY NAME IS JONAH, which I look forward to seeing eventually. (JB also put together the MY NAME IS JONAH Free Comic Book Day digital comic, which I contributed to).
JB wins the award due to excelling.
The rest of you need to step up your game in 2012.

ha! Nice man, what an honor! Thank you I look forward to being the first in what I’m sure will be a long line of deserving artist type people. I will carry your name to honor for one year and gladly relinquish it to my rightful heir.
