2015 was an outstanding year for comics; a year of great books by amazing talents, both new and established. But what were the highlights? We’re asking you to pick the best comics, creators, and more in 2015.

This poll is your chance to vote for breakthrough talent of 2015. These aren't necessarily people who are new to comics, but people who have seen their profile shoot up in the past year, or who are doing new things in the field. That might include established artists or cartoonists who have really made their mark as writers, for example, or creators who have recently reached new audiences.

The nominees for breakthrough talent (with selected credits) are Annie Wu, artist on Black Canary; Becky Cloonan, writer on Gotham Academy and Southern Cross; Benjamin Dewey, artist on The Autumnlands; Brenden Fletcher, writer on Black Canary, Gotham Academy and Batgirl; Christopher Sebela, writer on Welcome Back, Escape From New York, and Dead Letters; Erica Henderson, artist on Unbeatable Squirrel Girl and Jughead;
Evan Shaner, artist on Convergence: Shazam; Greg Hinkle, artist on Airboy; Kate Leth, writer on Power Up, Edward Scissorhands, and Bravest Warriors; Kyle Starks, writer/artist on Sexcastle; Marguerite Sauvage, cover artist, artist on DC Comics Bombshells; Mingjue Chen, guest artist on Gotham Academy and Batgirl; Paulina Ganucheau, artist on Zodiac Starforce; Sophie Campbell, artist on Jem And The Holograms; Steve Orlando, writer on Midnighter and Virgil; and Tom King, writer on Grayson, Omega Men, Sheriff of Babylon, and Vision.
