  1. Per the National Cartoonists Society “Variety Entertainment is defined as any newspaper, magazine, or online cartoon feature that contains puzzles, games, activities, trivia, history, or instruction.”
    This year’s nominees are Ripley’s Believe It or Not by Keiran Castano; Slylock Fox by Bob Weber, Jr.; and the various Highlights for Children pages by Chuck Dillon (Hidden Picture, That’s Silly).

    As I remember the NCS combined the Feature Animation and Television Animation categories a few years ago in the hope of increasing the odds of someone (anyone!) showing up to accept (or even acknowledge) the award after years of the animation industry ignoring them. It was a fruitless attempt. In 2022 the category was suspended.
