Voting on the 2022 Final Ballot is now open, is restricted to comic book industry creative community — anyone involved in and credited with creating comics professionally. Final ballots can be submitted directly or via the website, and voting will close on the 28th of September 28. We now present the 2022 Mike Wieringo Comic Book Industry Awards Final Ballot.
