Skybound’s Energon Universe received the highest accolade in comics at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 tonight, as Daniel Warren Johnson’s work on Transformers received two Eisner Awards. The multitalented pop auteur and his bestselling EU title won both “Best Continuing Series” and “Best Writer/Artist.” What makes the “Best Continuing Series” win especially sweet is that Transformers was the only non-DC Comics title in the running. Kudos to all the winners and nominees, including Skybound’s other nominated creators!
