Need something good to read? We got you. Need something great to read? The Harvey Awards got you.

Earlier this weekend at New York Comic Con 2024, the annual Harvey Awards event gathered together some of the best comic creators in the world to pay tribute - and give awards - to the best comics and comics-related media in the past year. To celebrate the highest achievement, and the people who did it. Over 50 comics across seven key categories vied for the final awards, and with the winners now announced it gives us one more reason (as if you needed one) to read some amazing comics. 

This year's Harvey Awards across seven categories cover the gamut of the comics medium, from books to digital offerings, as well as international titles (and specifically manga), and into the categories of children's and young adult work. And unlike most other comics awards, the Harvey also highlights adaptations of comics - be it as live-action movies, animated series, as well as video games and musicals.

Here are the nominees for the 2024 Harvey Awards, with the winners noted in bold. The Harvey Awards are presented by HarperAlley and supported by Comixology.
