The name refers to the television show about comics that Gual and Jal had in the 1980s: "HQ" is abbreviation of "História em Quadrinhos" ("Comics" in Brazilian Portuguese) and "Mix" comes from the name of the show ("TV Mix 4").[2][3]
The design of the trophy changes every year, always paying tribute to a character from Brazilian comics. The votes are made by artists and professionals of the area, editors, researchers and journalists.[4]
