The Prix de la critique is a prize awarded by the
Association des Critiques et des journalistes de Bande Dessinée to the best
comic album released for a year in
France. Previously, from 1984 to 2003, it was called Prix Bloody Mary and awarded at the
Angoulême International Comics Festival. Concerned at first with albums of the
Franco-Belgian comics school it was eventually interested in works coming from the
comic book tradition of more distant lands.
The winner of the award for that year is listed first, the others listed below are the nominees.
