List of webcomic awards

This article provides a list of notable awards for webcomics and some of the winners from each year.

Webcomics may be eligible for any number of literary awards that recognise achievement in comics or literature generally. As examples, webcomic artists have won Ignatz Awards and Eisner Awards, Gene Luen Yang's graphic novel American Born Chinese (originally published as a webcomic on Modern Tales), was the first graphic novel to be nominated for a National Book Award,^[1] and Don Hertzfeldt's animated film Everything Will Be OK, which won the 2007 Sundance Film Festival Jury Award in Short Filmmaking, was based on his webcomics.^[2]

However, a number of awards have existed that are specifically for webcomics, or which focus mainly on webcomics. This list details these awards, including their source, criteria, and winners.

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.

Awards relating to multiple mediums

Pulitzer Prizes

The Pulitzer Prize is an award for achievements in newspaper, magazine, online journalism, literature, and musical composition within the United States. In 2010, Mark Fiore won a Pulitzer Prize, becoming the first cartoonist to win a Pulitzer for an entry of entirely online cartoons.^[3] Fiore was later also a finalist for the Pulitzer in 2018.^[4] In 2012 and again in 2020, Matt Bors was a finalist for the Pulitzer, for his webcomics that appeared in the online magazine he founded, The Nib. ^[5][6] In 2015, Tom Tomorrow was a finalist for the Pulitzer based on his This Modern World comics published by the website Daily Kos.^[7]

Ursa Major Awards

The logo for the Ursa Major Awards

The Ursa Major Awards relate to furry media, such as video, written works, and comics. They were first presented in 2001 for works produced in the previous year. In 2004, a category for comic strips that feature anthropomorphic characters was introduced.^[8] Despite the category including all forms of comics, all winners have been webcomics.

Eisner Award

Main article: List of Eisner Award winners § Best Digital Comic/Webcomic

The Will Eisner Comic Industry Award, commonly shortened to the Eisner Award, is a prize given since 1988 for creative achievement in American comic books. In 2003, Justine Shaw's Nowhere Girl received a nomination for an Eisner award in the "best new series" category, while Shaw was nominated for "talent deserving of wider recognition", making her the first webcomic artist to be nominated for an Eisner.^[52]

In addition to considering works published online for general categories, the Eisner Awards have included categories only for digital works since 2005. The category Best Digital Comic was awarded each year from 2005 through to 2016, though was renamed Best Webcomic in 2009. Paste Magazine noted in 2016 that the Eisner's conflation of "digital comic" and "webcomic" may cause independent works to be overshadowed by online services such as Marvel Unlimited and DC Comics' "Digital First".^[53] In 2017, the category was split into "Best Digital Comic" and "Best Webcomic" and as of 2020 these two categories remain.

The table below shows the winners of Best Digital Comic/Webcomic and of Best Webcomic.

The Harvey Awards have included a category for online works since 2006. Originally called Best Online Comic Work, it was renamed to Digital Book of the Year following the 2018 revamp of awards and their move to New York Comic Con.^[74]

Ignatz Awards

Main article: Ignatz Award § Outstanding Online Comic

The Ignatz Awards are intended to recognize outstanding achievements in comics and cartooning by small press creators or creator-owned projects published by larger publishers. They have been awarded each year since 1997, except for 2001 as the show was cancelled after the September 11, 2001 attacks. Recipients of the award are determined by the votes of the attendees of the annual Small Press Expo.

Comics published online have won awards in multiple categories, such as Chester 5000 winning Outstanding Series and Hark! A Vagrant for Outstanding Anthology or Collection. As well as these, the Ignatz Awards have presented an award for Outstanding Online Comic since 2002.

Joe Shuster Awards

Main article: Joe Shuster Award § Outstanding WebComic Creator/Creative Team

The Joe Shuster Awards recognise Canadian comic creators, retailers and publishers. The awards have been handed out since 2005 and are administered by the Canadian Comic Book Creator Awards Association. As of 2024, these awards have not been presented since the "2021" awards, presented in 2022 for works produced in 2020.^[111][112]

The Joe Shuster Awards have presented a Webcomics Creator award since 2007.^{[note 1]} Unlike other categories given by other awards, this award is for a creator or team rather than a work and so can be in recognition of multiple pieces of work. This category is not always presented; it was not presented in 2016, nor in 2019 even though other Joe Shuster Awards were presented in those years.^[113] The award will be granted in 2020, with nominees announced and the winner to be announced in late October.^[114]

National Cartoonists Society Awards

Main article: National Cartoonists Society Division Awards § On-Line Comic Strip

The National Cartoonist Society Division Awards (also called the National Cartoonist Society Awards,^[128] the Reuben awards,^[129] or the Silver Reubens^[130]) are awards for cartooning, illustration and animation which have been presented since 1956. They are presented by the National Cartoonists Society, an organization of professional cartoonists in the United States.

The NCS first presented a category for webcomics in 2012.^[131] The next year it was split into two categories — Online Comics – Short Form, and Online Comics – Long Form^{[note 2]} — which remains the set-up through 2019.

The awards are given out in May each year. The naming of each award ceremony is not always consistent, with some ceremonies being referred to as the year they are in,^[132] some as the year past,^[133] and some not as a year but as a count, eg "the 71st" ceremony.^[134] The current naming system appears to be that the award ceremony relates to the previous year; for example, the "2018 Divisional Awards" were presented in May 2019. This is the naming system used in the table below.
