Since I do not speak Spanish, it is possible I have mistranslated the
award categories. Here are their original forms.

Mejor Historia Corta (Best Short Story), a.k.a. Mejor Historieta Corta (Best Short Comic)

Premio Especial John Buscema (John Buscema Special Award) (Dedicado a aquellos que han realizado extraordinarias contribuciones al medio y por su aportación al reconocimiento del mismo como arte) (added in 2002, apparently awarded every other year)
I have also attempted to provide the original English titles for
material originally published in English, or better known to Americans by
an English title. When I am not sure of the English form, I have
surrounded the English title with question marks. If I have
misrepresented one of these titles, please let me know.
