BALTIMORE COMIC-CON: Your 2011 Harvey Award winners are...

In a packed Baltimore Convention Center room on Saturday afternoon, DC writer Scott Snyder was listening to a pumped-up fan shower hosannas upon his “American Vampire” series.

Just hours later, Snyder’s comics-pro peers were doing the same.

Snyder’s Vertigo book — co-created by Rafael Albuquerque and Stephen King — won Best New Series at the 2011 Harvey Awards, presented at a banquet to wrap Day 1 of the Baltimore Comic-Con (the convention concludes today).

Among the night’s other big winners were Darwyn Cooke, who won Best Artist and Best Cartoonist for “Richard Stark’s Parker: The Outfit” (IDW), as well as Jaime Hernandez and Roger Langridge.

Jaime and Gilbert Hernandez’s “Love and Rockets: Volume 3” (Fantagraphics) won Best Continuing or Limited Series, and Todd Hignite’s book “The Art of Jaime Hernandez: The Secrets of Life and Death” (Abrams ComicsArts) won Best Biographical/Historical/Journalistic Presentation.

IDW continued its stellar night with “Dave Stevens’s The Rocketeer: Artist’s Edition” (Randall Dahlk and Scott Dunbier), which won Best Domestic Reprint Project and received a special award for Excellence in Presentation.

Among comic strips, Garry Trudeau’s “Doonesbury” (Universal Uclick) won for Best Syndicated Strip or Panel, and Kate Beaton’s “Hark! A Vagrant” won for Best Online Comics Work.

Besides “American Vampire,” DC’s Vertigo imprint also represented well with Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba’s “Daytripper,” which won Best Single Issue or Story, and “Cuba: My Revolution,” which won Best Colorist for Jose Villarrubia.

Marvel’s Thor books yielded wins for John Workman (Best Letterer) and Mark Morales (Best Inker.); and Roger Langridge (Best Writer) and Chris Samnee (Best Promising New Talent) won for “Thor: The Mighty Avenger.”

Langridge also won a special Humor in Comics award for Boom! Studios’ “The Muppet Show.”

And Stan Lee, the convention’s guest of honor, was presented with the Hero Initiative Lifetime Achievement Award.
