The 2024 Eisner Awards and Hall of Fame induction ceremony: photo galleries

The 2024 Eisner Awards Hall of Fame was held on the morning of July 26 during the San Diego Comic Convention (Comic-Con). Each year the Eisner Awards judges select 19 individuals to automatically be inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Awards Hall of Fame. This year's inductees included 12 deceased comics pioneers – Creig Flessel, A. B. Frost, Billy Graham, Albert Kanter, Warren Kremer, Oscar Lebeck, Frans Masereel, Keiji Nakaszawa, Noel Sickles, Cliff Sterrett, Elmer C. Stoner, and George Tuska – as well as seven living creators – Kim Deitch, Gary Groth, Don McGregor, Bryan Talbot, Ron Turner, Lynn Varley, and James Warren. In April, nominees were announced for online voting and the additional four Hall of Fame inductees were revealed during the ceremony: Klaus Janson, Jim Lee, Mike Mignola, and Jill Thompson.

Here are my photos from the morning ceremony of those who attended to accept their inductions or the proxies who accepted for them.

The 2024 Eisner Awards, hosted by Phil LaMarr and Thomas Lennon, were held later that evening at the Hilton Bayfront. Below are photos of some of the winners on stage from the 32 categories, as well as some photos from the special "In Memorial" salute to comics professionals who passed away in 2023. There was also a recap of the Hall of Fame induction ceremony held earlier in the day.
