Do you need (free) tickets or a wristband to attend? There are lots of indie publishers this year... in fact, I think Fantagraphics had the most nominations with 24! (Although pulling for the Fraction/Aja team as well....)

ETA: Here is a link to the publisher tally and a list of all the nominations:

I don't *think* they normally run out of audience capacity at the Eisners.

Last year, they got pretty damn close - this event has gotten more and more popular as years have gone on, with some high profile guests and presenters being in the room with most of the great and the good. If the trend continues, you may want to get in sooner rather than later to make sure you see this. I'm tempted, that's for sure...
