The Radius awards: a timeline
Graphic excellence, a popular jury and a tribute that moved everyone. Look back at the recognition the saga has received since the first volume came out.
Making comics in the countryside of São Paulo state and seeing the work recognized beyond the city does not happen every day. With Radius, it happened more than once. This is the timeline of the project's awards and recognition.
2022: the debut
Radius Volume 1 was launched on July 2, 2022, at an event at UNIMAR, in Marília, with more than 350 people. It was the debut night of the first superhero from Marília.
2023: two awards for Volume 1
- June 29, 2023: Radius Volume 1 wins the Oscar Schrappe Sobrinho Award, for graphic excellence, in the state of Paraná.
- November 20, 2023: the same volume wins the Fernando Pini Award, for editorial excellence and print finishing.
2024: the year of Pituco
On March 22, 2024, Radius Volume 2 was launched on a night of celebration, with Pituco taking a leading role in the story.
Months later, on July 20, 2024, Volume 2 won the Oscar Schrappe Sobrinho Award. The win came just days after Pituco passed away and was received as a posthumous tribute to him.
In September, the launch of Radius Volume 3 gathered fans at an event with a tribute to Pituco and closed the first major arc. In October, Volume 2 was recognized by the Popular Jury of DSHBR 2024, in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro.
The book made the list too
In December 2024, the book Quatro Patas, a história de Pituco was selected in the PNAB cultural grant of Marília. The book was officially launched in June 2025.
2026: new contests
The story goes on. According to the coverage gathered in the Press Room, in 2026 Pituco entered the race for the Angelo Agostini Trophy, and the entry of Quatro Patas in the 68th Jabuti Prize was confirmed by the Brazilian Book Chamber.
The full timeline of the first arc is in the Radius Universe.
