CrossGen has canceled most everything, including reprints on a couple
of books that just sold out. Their only solicited hardcover book ever,
WARRIOR WOMEN AND MYTHIC MEN was one of them. With reports of
CrossGen's bankruptcy surfacing this weekend, it's no surprise.

Fighting Females in CrossGen Crossover
February 18, 2004
The fury of a woman scorned is not to be taken lightly. Never have there
been better examples of this fury, either, than in the origins of Arwyn
and Lady Death.
Both women were subjected to hardships
and terror that would have made most damsels dash for the bedroom to cry
their eyes out. But these two fiery females instead turned their grief
into rage. The archer Arwyn vowed to put an end to the reign of the
dreaded tyrant Mordath. Swearing vengeance after the deaths of her
husband and daughter, she undertakes a quest to see Mordath dead. In the
case of Lady Death, she was once the daughter of Matthias, a 666th
generation descendant of the fallen angels. Due to her father's cruelty
and ambition, Hope soon found herself with no choice but to renounce her
humanity and enter Hell.
These are two of Eve’s daughters that we
have come to love and read about in CrossGen Entertainment comics. But
whereas they have been separated from each other in the CrossGen
universe, now both are being brought together in Sojourn/Lady Death #1.
This crossover is written by veteran
Chuck Dixon and Brian Pulido, featuring penciled artwork by none other
than George Perez. See Mordath pit Arwyn and her mystical bow against
Lady Death and her Eldritch steel blade in this upcoming two-issue
mini-series!
Look for it in the Comics section of Previews!

They're strong, skilled and sexy--and when they collide, George Pérez will
deliver all the action!
Hot on the heels of JLA/Avengers, the legendary artist known for
illustrating comics' greatest superhuman slugfests will pencil SOJOURN/LADY
DEATH, an electrifying event pitting Arwyn's mystical bow against the
supernatural spitfire's enchanted steel blade. On sale May 12th, the
two-issue miniseries features a colossal creative team completed by
co-writers Chuck Dixon (EL CAZADOR) and Lady Death creator Brian Pulido.
Star of the best-selling fantasy series SOJOURN, the avenging archer Arwyn
seeks to destroy Mordath, the wicked warlord responsible for the death of
her family. Battling beasts in the pages of LADY DEATH: A MEDIEVAL TALE, the
young woman named Hope uses her magical powers to help the two races that
have rejected her. Both warrior women oppose evil...so why is Arwyn aiming
her exploding arrows at the ghostly gal who defied the grave? Blame Mordath,
who figures if one alluring adventurer is challenging his grip on the world
of Quin, why not destroy her with her own dark twin?

DIXON, PULIDO, PEREZ, LADY DEATH & ARWYN MEET IN MAY EVENT
posted by MattBrady
It was ten years ago that Lady Death first made her appearance on the
comics scene, and what a trip it’s been. While part of the character’s
10th anniversary celebration will be in the form of Lady Death: The Wild
Hunt, a new series from CrossGen, written by character creator Brian
Pulido, and illustrated by Jim Cheung, a second party will be in the
form of a two-issue crossover - Sojourn/Lady Death debuting in May.
Written by Chuck Dixon and Pulido, the
miniseries will be illustrated by George Perez, marking his first return
to CrossGen since JLA/Avengers.
The thrust of the story pulls on the main
Sojourn storyline, that is, the series’ big bad, Mordath is still
seeking any and every advantage to rid himself of Arwyn, the
bow-wielding thorn in his side that he can’t shake. Using his magicks,
Mordath reaches across time and space, and pulls a champion to battle
for him.
That would be Lady Death.
CrossGen fans as well as those with their
respective ears to the ground will remember that at last year’s San
Diego Comic Con International, it was reported that Brian Pulido
suggested to Bill Rosemann, (in front of guests to the GrossGen booth)
that Lady Death should team-up with Arywn of Sojourn. While Rosemann was
excited about it and promised to pursue it after the con, Pulido’s
suggestion was the seed that started it all.

CrossGen Entertainment will be publishing Sojourn/Lady Death, a two-issue mini-series, beginning in May.
The book will be written by Chuck Dixon and Lady Death creator Brian Pulido, with art by George Perez.
Here's how CrossGen describes the first issue:

slay his foe! Now it's Arwyn and her mystical bow vs. Lady Death and her

Interview Chuck Dixon
by Corrina Lawson
ST: What new comics are coming up for you?
CD: I have quite a few stories coming up
for The Simpsons and just completed one. Marge opens a catering business
and caters Ranier Wolfcastle's fundraiser when he runs for mayor of
Springfield. The folks at Bongo have been very encouraging and I'm
finding the Simpsons stuff easier to come up with the more that I write.
I have a new title from CG coming soon as
well as working on Lady Death/Arwyn, which marks my first time working
directly with George Perez. That's exciting to write something for him
when he's coming off of JLA/Avengers.
Also another project for DC writing a
character I'm very familiar with and a new monthly for a brand new
company that's forming right now. And I'm always looking for something
new.

Hello again.
As is the all too common practice of
those who wish to speculate and comment
on things they know little about, the
cynics have decided to put their own
spin on what I thought was a fairly
straightforward post. My fault I guess.
I didn't clarify one important fact
about my commitment to CrossGen, partly
because it could have been considered a
company matter that should not be placed
in a public forum. I'm fairly certain
that CG would prefer that I didn't
explain further. However, since some
cynics did question the appropriateness
of my remarks considering the plight of
other professionals, both CG company
personnel and freelancers, I just want
to make one final statement.
The insurance benefits and the retaining
of my profit sharing deal (which of
course is totally dependent on CG's
ability to turn itself around in the
coming years) is all that CrossGen will
be paying me during 2004. I was offered
a page rate (and only a page rate) to do
the 2-part story I mentioned, but I
turned it down and will accept no
payment for anything I do for CG in the
next year. In fact, I've not taken any
payment in over a month by my own
request. There are too many other
creators who need to be taken care of
during this restructuring, and I frankly
don't want to be a drain on resources
that can better be used elsewhere. I'm
pretty well set after the success of
JLA/AVENGERS and I want to be part of
any positive steps to be taken to help
those not as lucky as I've been.
So set your cynicism aside, naysayers. I
would never consider putting myself on a
higher platform than my fellow creators.
This is my small way of helping out
CrossGen in particular and the comics
industry in general as a thank you for
all the blessings that have been heaped
on me during the last three decades.
If my intentions aren't clear now, then
I will just refrain from further comment
since for some people there is no such
thing as a sta (?)

Pérez and CrossGen
posted 10/2/03 12:46 AM
Hello, everyone.
I have kept publicly silent on all the
speculation, gossip and downright fabrications regarding my relationship
and future with CrossGen Entertainment because I wanted to get all my
ducks in a row before I made a public statement. And, quite truthfully, I
have been just too busy.
Also, I don’t believe that my business
dealings with any company should be played out in a public arena. I have
been guilty of doing that in the past and it really serves no purpose
except to vent one’s feelings and watch as news gets misquoted and petty
squabbles among unconcerned parties supplant any real focus on the
original issues. But I digress.
First and foremost, I want to assure
everyone that I am indeed still a CrossGen employee with all my health
and dental insurance and benefits still intact. I know how expensive I
am, and I wouldn’t have taken any offense if I had to be fired outright
due to financial belt-tightening caused the company’s restructuring.
Instead, CrossGen generously decided to keep me on, even if I had chosen
not to do any work at all for the company in 2004. However, while I
have left SOLUS after Issue 7 and will not be pencilling THE WAR
after all, I will be working on an as-yet-unnamed 2-part stand-alone
mini-series for CrossGen scheduled to be released sometime in the
summer. This decision was prompted by my desire to show my support for
Mark Alessi and for a company that has been nothing but generous and
respectful to me. And I have great confidence that the company will
indeed turn itself around.
The concerned letters, e-mails and phone
calls have been very flattering and I am so grateful that so many
friends and fans care so much about me. It is very humbling, and I
appreciate it greatly. Please rest assured that I am fine. I have been
blessed with long and happy associations with all of the companies I’ve
worked with. I love drawing comics, first, last and always. CrossGen,
like so many other companies I’ve served in my three decades in the
business, is going through some tough times. But I'm more than confident
that it will get through this, stronger and wiser. And when it does, I
will be there with pencil in hand and ready to kick butt.
While I will not, even if I weren’t still
an employee, discuss or comment on CG’s business dealings and
commitments, I do have faith in its future and that those still working
there are people of honor determined to make everything right again—and
to producing some of the finest comics in the industry.
Beyond that I am entertaining several freelance offers that have come my way. Thankfully, the huge success of the
JLA/AVENGERS crossover
has allowed me the luxury of being able to take my time in choosing
what that next project will be. There’s one prospect that looks very
promising, but that’s a matter for a future announcement.
Thanks and take care,
George Pérez
