The Association of Comics Critics and Journalists (ACBD) has awarded its 2026 Comics Prize to the first volume of Anders Nilsen's Tongues. The work was recognized for its unique narrative blend of ancient mythology and contemporary geopolitics.
Published by Atrabile, the book stands out for its bold layout and experimental storytelling. The ACBD jury praised the title as an ambitious and mysterious work that leaves a lasting impression on its readers. This award follows the previous year's recognition of Watership Down. The prize will be officially presented to the publisher in the near future.
