THE SHAZAM AWARDS
After the fall of the Alley Awards, a new comic enthusiast group called the “Academy of Comic Book Arts” began their own award ceremony to replace the one which had been lost (although Don and Maggie Thompson would soon after do the same with their “Goethe Awards.”) Naturally, the awards were named after SHAZAM!, one of the most influential and iconic American comic books in history. The Academy held these awards at formal dinner parties from 1970 to 1974.
