Congratulations!

Wayno and I on the night we met at some pirate-comedy-drawing-stage-show event in Pittsburgh perhaps 15 years ago. (I think.)

Hey, Jazz Pickles, here’s a quick and joyful announcement!

The National Cartoonists Society gives out yearly awards for various categories of cartooning and this year they’ve nominated our Bizarro’s own Wayno in the category of “Newspaper Panels”! Nominated alongside him are Dave Blazek for Loose Parts and Mark Parisi for Off the Mark.

I happen to be blessed to know all three of these galoots and they’re all talented gag writers, hard workers, and good guys. They all deserve to win but I HOPE WAYNO DOES!

These awards are usually given out at a private cartoonist convention in the spring but this year they’re doing it online and the public is invited to watch any or all of it for free! There are famous cartoonist speakers and seminars, and the winners of the various category awards will be announced sporadically throughout the live broadcast all day.

This Saturday, September 12, the live feed starts at 10 am EST here. No sign-in or anything required.

Here is the schedule for the entire day’s proceedings.

The section with Wayno’s award category is scheduled to start at 11:30 am EST. I’ll be tuning in to root him on to victory and I hope you will, too! To do that, go here at 11:30 am on Saturday, Sept. 12.

Buena suerte, mi amigo!
