On September 5, 2021, from 4 pm, the third GINCO award ceremony was livestreamed by the Comic Invasion Berlin (CiB) and published on Youtube (also embedded below on this page). Afterwards, some of the award winners talked to organizer Lara Keilbart via Zoom.

The complete laudations of the committee for all awarded works — one of them in comic form by Büke Schwarz — can be read in German and in English on our homepage.

Once again, we would like to congratulate all winners and thank the 2021 committee for reviewing all submissions. In 2022, too, artists from the German-speaking world as well as expats will once again be invited to digitally submit their 2021 self-published or professional comics, mangas, dōjinshi or illustrated experimental works. The award will again be recognized with €1,500.
