Back description: On the back cover of the portfolio it is written: It
is said that all British calssic actors must sooner or later plan either
Hamlet or Lear, the Shakespearean roles that defing the limits of their
craft. Similarly, it seems that all modern comic book artist, at least
those of the post-Jack Kirby generation, must eventually face the
challenge of interpreting the comic's darkest icon, the Batman. George
Perez has been universally acknowledged for more than a decade as on the
the field's masters and here, at last, we have his version of the Dark
Knight and his proteges, Robin and Nightwing. These pieces, three of
which have never appeared anywhere before, abundantly display that
talent that has earned George his popularity: his sense of graphic
design, his dynamic composition, his ability to infuse static images
with a sense of movement and drama. George has met the Batman challenge
with his own unique style, and the drawings in this portfolio represent
both the Batman and George Perez handsomely. (written by Dennis O'Neil)

Okay. I have to add a few details here to this.
Remember this whole thread where I talked about how George Perez is the best guy? Well, it gets BETTER.
I wrote him to make 100% sure he was okay with me doing this.
He wrote back.
First, he said that he supported the idea without reservation.
Then he said, "That said, I would like to make a proposition of my own.
"What If the new buyer of the piece was me? I’m really not sure as to how much a piece of my art would go for these days...but I would gladly pay $X for that ...

This is the latest in a feature where I just share some bit of comic
book history that interests me. Here is a collection of all of the
installments in the feature so far.
Back in 1990, George Perez did a portfolio of Batman illustrations.
Most of them were covers he did for Batman and New Titans for first
Batman: Year Three and then Lonely Place of Dying (the introduction of
Tim Drake as Robin). However, three of the illustrations were never
published otherwise. Read on to see these gorgeous pieces!
So I'd agree Batman is something good to see him work on at DC. I remember some Flash covers also that he did way back, and seeing him on Flash wouldn't hurt my feelings either!
While he is my all-time favorite artist,
and I've enjoyed everything he has been associated with... I think the
"defining" Perez for me was his work on revamping Wonder Woman, perhaps because he got to show off not only his knack for detailed art but his writing as well + I am a sucker for mythology.
The Batman & Robin cover
was done several months ago. TwoMorrows
had just signed up with Diamond's
bookstore distribution. Diamond puts together the catalogs for the
bookstore market once every 6 months and I needed a cover much sooner
than the deadline I gave George for the Previews catalog and there was
no way he could get it done in time. So I just scanned a plate from DC's Pérez portfolio, did some quick coloring, and sent it off.
The Solus image is the actual cover being used for the book.
