CREATOR & COMICS FOR KIDS AWARDS

If your book was published and distributed in English or French in 2016 then you are already eligible for consideration. If you are concerned we may not know about your comics, please email kevin@joeshusterawards.com to ensure we are aware that you are Canadian and eligible for consideration.

RETAILER AWARD

Feel free to let us know about how great your local store is. Previous winners are not eligible to win the award again, so in some ways it is like a Hall of Fame for great Canadian comic shops.

HALL OF FAME & TM MAPLE

The recipients are decided by committee but please feel free to send us your recommendations.
