In fact, this year's judges--Marty Grosser, editor of Previews, Diamond Comic Distributors' monthly catalog; Mag Sabo, manager of Atomic Books; and Christopher Skokna, CP's own Comics Issue editor--needed only seconds to pick a winner: Dirt Farm, by Ben Claassen III of Baltimore, which came in second last year, gets a year's run in CP, with pay. Of Dirt Farm, Sabo says, "Yes! It's so funny, yet sometimes just plain wrong--but in a good way."
