The Ledger Awards The Ledger Awards The Ledger Awards are prizes awarded to "acknowledge excellence in Australian comic art and publishing." Named after pioneering Australian cartoonist Peter Ledger (1945–1994), the awards were first held in 2005 to help promote and focus attention on Australian creators and their projects, both in Australia and overseas.

In recent years, they have been held at the State Library of Victoria on the Friday evening before the Melbourne Supanova convention. The Ledger Awards began in 2004 as a fully independent, non-profit initiative.
