Comic's Comic
As voted for by peers
The awards were founded in 2013 by John Moloney as an alternative to other prizes that he felt did not recognise professional comedians who work the circuit year in, year out. Anyone who makes their living – or most of it - from comedy can vote and winners are announced around the end of the year.
