⚡ Comic-Con International has announced that Jenny Blake Isabella will receive the 2026 Bill Finger Award for Excellence in Comic Book Writing.

The prestigious award honors comic book writers whose contributions to the medium have not always received the recognition they deserve, making Isabella a fitting recipient after a career that has spanned more than five decades.

Isabella is best known as the creator of Black Lightning, DC Comics' first major Black superhero, as well as Marvel's Black Goliath. Her work has also included runs on The Champions, Hawkman, Justice Machine, Ghost Rider, and countless other titles across the industry.

The honor comes during a landmark period in Isabella's life. Earlier this year, she came out as transgender and announced that she would continue writing under both the names Jenny Blake Isabella and Tony Isabella.

Few creators have left a larger mark on superhero comics, and even fewer have helped shape representation in the medium the way Isabella has.

Congratulations to Jenny Blake Isabella on this well-deserved recognition.

So, yes, I totally went to KFC and bought the Supergirl value meal and got a toy (Ruthye). And no, I didn't get the Krypto bucket.
