NOMINEES OF INAUGURAL FIRST JEWCIE AWARDS ANNOUNCED 

awards 2023

New York’s Center for Jewish History is holding their own comic con November 11, called JewCE: The Jewish Comics Experience. To complement the event will be the inaugural JewCie Awards. According to their website:

“A vital part of the JewCE convention will be a major public event, the JewCie Awards.  The first ceremony ever held in celebration of Jewish comics, the JewCie Awards supports JewCE’s mission by honoring the creators of Jewish comic book narratives, themes, and characters. Such awards serve as a platform to acknowledge and celebrate the unique contributions of artists, storytellers, and creators who have invested their talents and passion into Jewish storytelling through the medium of comics.”

There are nine award categories including a career achievement award (Macherke Award), best writer, best artist, plus awards on Diverse Jewish Representation, Historical Narratives, Autobiography, Contemporary Subjects, Fiction, and Combating Prejudice. It seems the criteria is pretty broad in terms of publication date as books range from quite recent to a 1980s issue of Sandman.

Judges for the first JewCie Awards are Brian Michael Bendis, Jeremy Dauber, Ken Krimstein, Paul Levitz, Arnon Shorr, Julian Voloj, David Walker, Alex Rae, Chari Pere, Danny Fingeroth, and Karen Green.
