The finalists for the 2010 Doug Wright Awards are:
Best Book
Best Emerging Talent
The Pigskin Peters Award
Established in 2008, the Pigskin Peters Award recognizes avant-garde Canadian comics and other non-traditional works. The award is named after an iconic character in the classic comic strip Birdseye Center by cartoonist Jimmie Frise. In 1948, Doug Wright inherited Frise's strip following the elder cartoonist's untimely death and would continue to draw it for the next two decades — a fact that symbolically ties the award to the DWAs overall mission.
