The "Best Of" competition provides CAF Collector's the opportunity to highlight
their 5 most important acquisitions from the prior year. After the submission
period ends, CAF's community votes on the artworks that they feel are the most
compelling from the seven possible categories and once the voting period closes
we tally the results to see which artworks are awarded the Best of 2020. There
are no real awards at this time - only the prestige of being recognized by your
peers. Maybe one day there will be!
The annual "Best Of" competition has been hosted on ComicArtFans.com
<http://comicartfans.com/> for many years in the Lowry Gallery
