The award was picked up by Rob Shearman, the writer of the first series episode Dalek, who paid tribute to head writer Russell T. Davies and executive producer Julie Gardner.
Shearman added that some people had originally "laughed" at the idea of resurrecting Doctor Who when he first told them that he was working on the show.
Other winners at Saturday's ceremony included The Dark Knight for best film and Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez's Locke and Key for best comic.
Hayao Miyazaki picked up the The Karl Edward Wagner Award and Joseph D'Lacey won The Sydney J. Bounds Award for Best Newcomer for his debut novel Meat.
