Goethe Awards The Goethe Award (named after J. W. Goethe), later known as the Comic Fan Art Award, was an American series of comic book fan awards, first presented in 1971 for comics published in 1970. The award originated with the fanzine "Newfangles" and then shared close ties with "The Buyer's Guide to Comics Fandom". The Comic Art Convention (CAC) twice hosted the presentation of the awards, at the 1972 and 1974 CACs. The format and balloting of the Comics Buyer's Guide Fan Awards, presented by the "Comics Buyer's Guide" from 1982–2008, were in many ways derived from the Goethe Award/Comic Fan Art Award.
