The Wendy Award

Canadian cartoonist Walter Scott's The Wendy Award (2024–present, Drawn & Quarterly) follows the misadventures of a self-absorbed young artist navigating the absurdities of contemporary art-world culture. Known for his sharp, satirical humor, Scott brings his signature deadpan style to this single-issue comic, which skewers pretension and creative ambition. As part of his ongoing Wendy series, this installment stands as a pointed, standalone commentary on the commodification of art and identity.
