“The best awards presentation I’ve ever attended. For anything. Worth the trip to Toronto alone”
– Dan Nadel, Writer, Editor, Curator, co-publisher of The Comics Journal

“Two hours of pure comic book entertainment that kept the entire audience captivated. Quite, simply the best comic awards show in the world.”
– Peggy Burns, Publisher, Drawn and Quarterly Books

“I wish there was an American comics awards that took itself as seriously as the Doug Wright Awards, but there isn’t.”
–  Dustin Harbin, Cartoonist

That’s what people have said about The Doug Wright Awards, Canada’s classiest comics and graphic novel awards ceremony. But, why don’t you be the judge?

This year, we’ll be doing something a little different. The recipients of the 16th annual Doug Wright Awards will be announced in a special prerecorded online ceremony, broadcast on both Facebook and YouTube, on Saturday, May 9th, at 8 p.m. Everyone involved recorded their own segment at home, in most cases on their phone, but we think it still captures the fun of a regular Doug Wright Awards ceremony—if there is such a thing!
