Come ogni anno dal 2005 a questa parte, la Canadian Comic Book Creator Awards Association ha assegnato gli Shuster Awards, premi intitolati a Joe Shuster, co-creatore con Jerry Siegel del personaggio di Superman e originario del Canada. Il premio è rivolto proprio agli autori canadesi che si sono distinti nel corso dell’ultima annata fumettistica.
