Nominations for the TWCL Webcomic Awards 2010 now open
Webcomic creators and other people actively involved in the creation, distribution or promotion of comics or webcomics can now nominate up to three webcomics in nine categories for the The Webcomic List Awards 2010.
The big winner of the first instance of the TWCL webcomic awards 2009 last year was Gunnerkrigg Court which won “Best comic” as well as “Best writing” and “Best longform”. See the listing of all winners in 2009.
After the nomination phase, the four webcomics with the most nominations will be handed to a panel of judges whose job it is to decide which one deserves to win. However, since the nomination phase is not open to the general public, every nomination is really important as well. So if you think that some of your personal favorites deserve an award, you really should cast your vote. You cannot nominate your own comic or the comics created by the jury members.
Since I’m not a judge this year, you can also vote for Sandra and Woo this year. I guess that “Best gag-a-day” may be the most promising category for our comic.
Here is my personal ballot:
Best Comic:
Best New Comic:
Best Colour Art:
Best Black and White Art:
Best Non-Traditional Art:
Best Character:
Best Gag-a-Day:
Best Longform:
Best Writing:
- Edmund Finney’s Quest to Find the Meaning of Life
- Red’s Planet
- Luke Surl (Luke is a jury member)
If you’re looking for other new comics to nominate I hear “Holiday Wars” (www.holiday-wars.com) is pretty good. Of course I may be biased.

Darn. That’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Hey, I’m super-flattered to be on your “writing” list, but as an organiser I’m not eligible this year. 🙂
I’m going to have some serious thinking to do before I cast my ballot, I’ll check out those of your nominations I haven’t yet read.
A sweep by Edmund Finney’s Quest? That would be pretty awesome!
Novil, thanks a ton, again, for your continued support! Your compliments about my comic never get less flattering.
Well, thank you for the mentions!
Nin Wah thanks you too!
