Your 2010 Shuster Award Winners

Winners were named in the Joe Shuster Awards last weekend in a ceremony during Toronto Comicon. Designed to "recognize the achievements of Canadian comics creators," the Shusters are in their sixth year and are named after Superman's co-creator. The nominees were named in multiple groups, which makes the following formatting a bit more difficult than usual because I suck enough to have missed the subsequent rounds of categorical nominees. All that means is apologies in advance if it looks disjointed. I'm not sure I can comment on any of the winners as I'm not all that comfortably proficient with the details of this awards program, but it strikes me as worth noting that Deni Loubert made their hall of fame.

Winners in bold.
