Publisher's Weekly announced that a most undeserving propagandist won an Eisner award for his GNs, which have been hurtful to Israel, that being artist Joe Sacco:
Here's more at the CBC about winners of the show, here being Mariko Tamaki, for a comic starring Zatanna, and this looks like quite a strange choice indeed:
Other notable wins included Sacco’s work of graphic journalism The War on Gaza (Fantagraphics) for Best Single Issue, and Tessa Hulls’ Pulitzer-winning Feeding Ghosts (MCD/Farrar, Straus & Giroux) for Best Graphic Memoir.This is disgusting, but far from a surprise that an award ceremony founded by one of the most cartoonists who was instrumental in developing the whole concept of graphic novels would be turned inside out and serve to give prizes to somebody who happens to be as much an enemy of Will Eisner as other descendants of Israel, based on what kind of GNs he turned out, and cartoonist Art Spigelman added insult to injury by collaborating with Sacco on some more cartoons attacking the Israeli government at the worst possible time, post October 7, 2023.

Tamaki won the best limited series category for Zatanna: Bring Down the House, which she created with Spanish artist Javier Rodriguez.Oh, please. Premises like these make for pretty cheap tricks themselves. Do we really need this kind of lazy premise for the sake of having the star of the show overcome obstacles to triumph over evil? Nope. This is as weak as they come. But why should we be surprised when the Eisner awards thinks this is actually worth heaping prizes upon today? In the 2 decades since Will Eisner passed away, they really have gone way downhill.
In Zatanna: Bring Down the House, after a tragic mistake leaves her terrified of her own powers, magician Zatanna has resorted to performing free shows filled with cheap card tricks at the seediest casino on the Las Vegas strip. But when a mysterious stranger appears and unleashes chaos, Zatanna is forced to confront her fears and reclaim the magic she once tried to bury.
