The Ringo Awards are given for achievement in comic books. Named for artist Mike Wieringo, the Ringo Awards were founded by Cards, Comics, and Collectibles in Reisterstown, Maryland, and the Ringo Awards Committee in 2017 to be the successor to the Harvey Awards that left the Baltimore Comic-Con as its venue in 2016.[1]

The Ringo Awards are nominated by an open vote among comic-book professionals and fans. The winners are selected from the top two fan choices as the first two nominees and the professional jury selects the remaining three nominees in each category.[2]

History

The Ringo Awards were created as an industry award voted by comics professionals and its fans. The first Ringo Awards were presented at the Baltimore Comic-Con on September 23, 2017.[3] The 2018 awards took place at the Baltimore Comic-Con on September 29, 2018. The 2019 awards will be held October 19, 2019 at the Baltimore Comic-Con.
