  Reuben Award - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Reuben Awards, named for Rube Goldberg, are presented each year by the National Cartoonists Society.
The awards are presented at the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Awards Weekend.
The principal award is the Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year, given since 1946 for print cartoonists, primarily comic strips, and is often compared to the Academy Awards in its stature.

 The Comics Journal: Online Features
Entries for journalism awards are chosen by 65 editors, publishers, writers and educators (broken into juries of 5 persons) from material appearing in any US newspaper published daily, Sunday, or at least weekly during the calendar year, with nominations for the cartooning category being limited to a portfolio of 20 cartoons.
The winner of the 1948 Pulitzer for editorial cartooning, Reuben "Rube" Goldberg, however, is the inspiration for an equally prestigious award, this one within the comics industry itself: the Reuben Award.
Unusual for comics awards on a number of counts, the Ignatzes are "festival prizes" nominated by an anonymous board of independent cartoonists, and voted on by all attendees of the SPX expo (rather than by the committee-based system preferred by most awards boards).

 Drawn! The Illustration Blog » Blog Archive » 2005 Reuben Winners
At last night’s 2005 Reuben Awards, bestowed by the National Cartoonists Society, editorial cartoonist Mike Luckovich (previously discussed here) won the Reuben Award for Cartoonist of the Year, professional cartooning’s highest honor.
He’s a Pulitzer Prize winning editorial cartoonist, and that particular award (the Silver T Square) is given to individuals for service to the profession — in this case, fostering young talent by creating the John Locher Award for college editorial cartoonists.
Relying on the artists themselves to submit material, when the majority of the people who make comic books are unaware of the awards existence, renders the idea that the award represents some kind of excellence in the field, a little pointless.

As comic book artists usually spend the day before an awards ceremony on their feet selling their books and meeting fans, and comic strip artists spend the day before the Reubens floating in a hotel pool eavesdropping on one of the Walker kids telling dirty jokes, this difference is quite understandable.
It occurs to me that by designing the award he received, Seth gives up the cartoonist's traditional right to complain about the way it looks, how heavy it is, or how it won't fit on any shelf/wall.
Pat Brady of Rose is Rose took home the cartoonist of the year award at the Reuben Awards given out Saturday night in beautiful downtown Scottsdale, Arizona in the traditional formal-wear-only ceremony.
