The DC Universe Award-Winning Collection

For a long time, I’ve wanted to catalog every award-winning title on DC Universe. This thread will contain my directories to every DCU title to win a noteworthy award. Below, you’ll find a directory of all the award lists I’ve created so far, to be updated as new awards are given and new comics arrive on DCU.

And now, let us begin with The Big One:

THE EISNER AWARDS

Since 1988, the Eisner Awards have stood as the industry equivalent of the Oscars, but for comics. The awards are usually presented at San Diego Comic Con (though I imagine they’ll be distributed some other way this year). They were named for Will Eisner, creator of The Spirit.

When I was first getting into comics, and I couldn’t trust the opinions of my peers, I turned to the list of Eisner winners for a wider consensus on the best that modern comics had to offer. Today, I offer the same opportunity to you, complete with handy links.

The Harvey Awards

The Harvey Awards are, after the Eisners, the second-most prestigious award in the American comic book industry today. The Harveys and the Eisners are both the product of their shared predecessor, the Kirby Awards, dissolving in 1988. Named after MAD Magazine co-founder Harvey Kurtzman, The Harvey Awards were originally founded by the president of Fantagraphics, but are no longer formally associated with the publisher. Since 2017, the Harvey Awards have been presented annually at New York Comic Con.

THE COMICS BUYER’S GUIDE FAN AWARDS

As the name suggests, the CBGF Awards were presented by The Comics Buyer’s Guide, once the longest running magazine about the comic book industry.

THE DON THOMPSON AWARDS

Sponsored by CompuServe on behalf of one of the first comic book enthusiast fan groups on the internet, these awards were named in honor of Comics Buyer’s Guide publisher Don Thompson, and were overseen by his widow and Comics Buyer’s Guide editor, Maggie Thompson. They were distributed from 1992 to 1998 at Motor City Comic Con in Detroit, Michigan.

Also, a note about the “Most Improved” award: this award is not necessarily meant to suggest that the previous work on the title from the issues cited was poor, but specifically to recognize the exemplary work of a new creative team on an ongoing title.

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.

THE KIRBY AWARDS

For the first half of the 1970s, the Shazam Awards were considered the industry standard ceremony for recognition of achievement in comics. But for a decade after their dissolution, no real top tier prestigious award for comics existed. That changed in 1985, when Amazing Heroes magazine editor Dave Olbrich partnered with Fantagraphics to create the Kirby Awards: named, of course, in honor of the king himself, Jack Kirby. The Kirby Awards were only held for 3 years at San Diego Comic-Con, after which Olbrich and Fantagraphics were embroiled in a dispute over ownership, which became so heated that Kirby withdrew permission to use his name. Olbrich then went on to found The Eisner Awards, while Fantagraphics spearheaded The Harveys.

THE LULU AWARDS

The Lulu Awards were organized by “Friends of Lulu,” an organization promoting the advancement of women in the male-dominated comic book industry. Their name comes from the classic comic strip character Little Lulu, created by Marjorie Henderson Buell. From 1997 to 2009, the Lulu Awards were presented at San Diego Comic-Con. In 2010, money problems led to the group’s dissolution.

Throughout the 13 year run of the ceremony, only one DC title was ever honored with a Lulu Award:

THE WIZARD FAN AWARDS

In the comics boom of the 1990s, Wizard magazine was by far the most popular publication about the world of comic books. Every year between 1993 and 2006, Wizard ran an annual Wizard Fan Awards feature, where the comics most worthy of recognition were selected by the fans. Wizard ceased physical publication altogether in 2011, but they’ll always be part of comic history.
