Will Eisner Award Hall Of Fame

The following is a list of winners of the Eisner Award, sorted by category.

The Eisner Awards have been presented since 1988, but there were no Eisner Awards in 1990 due to balloting mix-ups."Eisners Cancelled," ''The Comics Journal'' #137 (Sept. 1990), p. 16. The awards ceremony has been held at San Diego Comic-Con since 1991.
