^Ditko was presented the award in absentia, accepted on his behalf byRenegade Press publisherDeni Loubert, who had publishedDitko's World the previous year. Ditko refused the award and returned it to Loubert saying, "Awards bleed the artist and make us compete against each other. They are the most horrible things in the world.
