Reply to comment by NewCanadianMTurker in TIL The Marvel No-Prize is a empty envelope that Marvel awarded fans for "meritorious service to the cause of Marveldom". Typically it was won by submitting an explanation for an error in a comic, but rules varied from author to author. The prize was inspired by George R. R. Martin. by jamescookenotthatone

It was never given it out with contempt. I always interpreted the name as tongue-in-cheek because they weren't sending out an actual prize, so it was the No-Prize.
