R.I.P. William Vance (XIII)Vu:
I've just learned that Belgium artist William Vance has died on May 14, 2018, suffering from Parkinson's disease. He was 82. Vance was known for co-creating XIII (13), a sort of French/Belgium version of the Bourne Identity, in 1984. The XIII follows the story of an amnesiac protagonist who is trying to learn his true identity.
XIII was adapted to a first-person shooter by Ubi Soft Paris in 2003, and also adapted for television in 2008, and followed by two series... with each series having, what else?, 13 episodes.
Rest in peace, William Vance.

hello, I've been away from collected comics for some time (years)... is
George working on anything monthly or any upcoming projects?
Answer: George is presently not working on anything.
As for back issues, as far as major publishers goes, George Perez hasn't worked Marvel Comics since Avengers (1998-2000).
During and after CrossGen Comics, he worked for DC & Marvel for JLA/Avengers (2003).
Perez stayed with DC for the most part, starting Infinite Crisis (2005), The Brave and the Bold (2007), Green Arrow (2011), Superman (2011), and Worlds' Finest (2012).
George Perez is currently with Boom Studios for his Sirens comics.
GEORGE PEREZ'S SIRENS HARDCOVER (16 Jan 2018) Boom! Studios
One of comics’ greatest creators returns to the page with an all-new team of heroines.
As
an intergalactic force enslaves planets across the galaxy, the
legendary team known only as the Sirens must reunite to save the
galaxy—but is that even possible when the Sirens themselves
don’t remember who they are? And the rest of the universe only remembers
them as…villains?
Legendary creator George Pérez, best known for his incredible work on Wonder Woman and The New Teen Titans, writes and illustrates this limited series, featuring his next great superteam.
About the Author
George first started in comics in 1973 as an assistant to Rich
Buckler, working on a back-up story in Astonishing Tales #25. His first
solo assignments came a year later when he penciled the story Sons of
the Tiger from the black and white magazine Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu, and
Man-Wolf from Creatures on the Loose. Within a year of these stories,
he was offered regular assignments on Fantastic Four, The Inhumans, and
The Avengers. George has worked steadily since that time. It was his
work on these large-scale team books that garnered him the reputation as
the artist that liked to draw group books. During his historic career,
George has worked for every major publisher, as well as some minor ones.
He is best known for his work on The New Teen Titans, a series that
helped turn DC Comics around in the early 80s and was also the first
mainstream title to offer a royalties program to its creators. He is
also well known for his runs on Wonder Woman, Marvel Comics' Avengers
series, and for the maxi-series to end all maxi series, Crisis on
Infinite Earths.
