I love ya like a grilled cheese sandwich (whatever that means), but you never released the Swordquest: Airworld comic book.
You're breakin' my heart, here, George. Whatsamatta with you, anyways?
Also, it bugs me how you draw all the toes next to the big toe, too
short. It's like they're circus freaks or something... I have a foot
fetish, so you have to fix this if you want me to stay your number one
fan.
Here we have HISTORY being offered for the first time in 22 years.
Offered up for sale is the complete Issue # 2 ( 48 pages of artwork) to
the SWORDQUEST mini-book "FIREWORLD " PLUS ALL FOUR COVERS to the entire
mini series. ( To avoid the question, the covers will NOT be sold
separately from the interior to Issue # 2 ).
There is no price set as the artwork is being sold via offers only.
There is a minimum price ( which is VERY reasonable ) the owner is
looking for the art.
This will be a FOUR DAY closed auction. All bids must be in my email inbox by 7 PM est Friday, OCTOBER 8th, 2004.
If interested in placing a bid, EMAIL ME AT SpencerBck[a]aol.com (email). The highest bidder will get the art ( as long as the offer goes over the "hidden" reserve price ).
Payment is due IN MY HANDS within 10 days of verification you are the
winner. Postage and handling will be based upon where you are located.
Payment methods accepted are cash ( at customer's risk) checks ( which
must clear the bank before art will be shipped ) Money Orders and
Western Union. I DO NOT accept PayPal or Credit Cards. SORRY.
Two Final Notes:
1) there will be no updates as to who the highest bidder is, so make your first bid, your best.
2) This artwork is NOT owned by George Perez and is being sold on behalf
of a private owner ( who has had the artwork since the comics came out
22 years ago ).
Scott Stilphen
asks: AFAIK, only the first 3 comics (Earthworld, Fireworld, and
Waterworld) of a 4-part series were ever released. Was any work started
on the 4th? There are rumors that the story was written, and that it was
even drawn (but not inked). Other people have tried contacting DC, but
their archives are in some disarray and no one there seems very willing
to search through it.
George Pérez:
Hi:
No, there was no "Airworld" story ever written or drawn. The whole
SWORDQUEST project was terminated by Atari before we could even start on
the art. Roy Thomas and Gerry Conway may have worked out some sort of
plot synopsis dealing in the generalities of that final chapter for
Atari approval, but it never got to plot form. As it was the third book
"Waterworld" was released without a game cartridge, although I'm not
sure how.
Take care,
GPz
Scott Stilphen:
Thanks for taking the time to reply to me about this.
Thanks for putting these rumors to rest
The game was produced, albeit in limited quantities (I have a copy myself).
Here is the entry for it at AtariAge, which has pictures and screenshots:

As far as I
know, it was never released w/o the game. I also have an article online
about the Swordquest contest, on the 2600 Connection site, at:
