INSANITY Streak by artist Steve Lopes, of Sylvania, has won best comic strip at The Australian Cartoonists Association Stanley Awards.
Held in Sydney earlier this month, the Stanley Awards is an annual ceremony that has celebrated the best of Australian cartooning since 1985.
It is the 10th Stanley Award Insanity Streak has received since commencing as a daily strip in 2000.
Appearing in more than 80 newspapers in Australia, Britain, Scandinavia, New Zealand and Bangkok, Insanity Streak reaches more than 5 million readers a day.
Voted by industry peers, the Stanleys are considered the pinnacle award in Australia for cartoonists.
It has been three years since Mr Lopes has won a Stanley. He said it was a great honour to be recognised again in 2014.
"With the competition of such a high standard at the moment, I really never expected to win, so to receive the award really was very humbling," he said.
