Today in Marvel History: The Thanos Snap (21 May 2019)From www.marvel.com
INFINITY GAUNTLET #1 (Jul 1991)
Marvel Comics
On May 21, 1991, the Mad Titan upended existence with a single click of his fingers, killing 50% of life, and leaving the Super Heroes of the Marvel universe with the greatest fight in history ahead of them. Led by the resurrected Adam Warlock and aided by primal cosmic forces, Earth's protectors entered cosmic warfare in a six-issue event written by Jim Starlin and featuring the art of George Perez and Ron Lim. And 28 years later, the reverberations of this one action are still echoing across the world!

You may see this "In the Spotlight" advertisement, showcasing George
Perez's Wonder Woman work. Note the cover artwork for Gods &
Mortals is actually WONDER WOMAN #1 (Feb 1987).
Be here for the next step
in the evolution in comics. The Crisis and its aftermath have led to
this! Come join senior group editor Mike Carlin and senior editor Matt
Idelson with Gail Simone (Secret Six, All-New Atom), Howard Porter
(JLA, Trials of Shazam), as they take you inside DC's Brave New World.

Fan: Since Infinite Crisis, I
have no idea what the hell the continuity of the DC is. All of a
sudden, Wonder Woman is part of the Justice League beginning. How does
that affect the George Pérez series? Where does that fit in? ... What
is and what isn't part of the current world? Are we going to find out,
or are we going to have to read for years.
Matt Idelson: There's a project in the works for next year. And I
don't know if it's been announced, so I'm not going to say too much,
except that it's designed to address some of these things, from some of
the books and different characters.
Mike Carlin: A lot of
what we're doing is not going to say that the George Pérez series fits
perfectly right now. That's 15 years ago, almost 20 years ago. It's
going to change and evolve every decade or so.
The following products are expected to
ship to comic book specialty stores next week. Note that this list is
tentative and subject to change. Please check with your retailer for
availability.

Superman | 192pg. | Color | Softcover | $19.99 US
On Sale April 5, 2006
The TRIGON collection is a trade and the
next Perez Titans material you see is will be the second volume of the
Archives, probably in 2004. Yes, we'll be recoloring his JLA and Wonder
Woman books when we get to them. No, George won't be doing new covers,
as mentioned earlier.
Right now, the Perez volumes are moving
slowly through the system. Until we need the covers, we're not sure
which way we're going. Neither JLA or WW are currently on the schedule
so we have time to make this work out.
Yes, the plot to #4 is approved but
there's no way George can do all that's left and still have all 4 come
out this year. Neither DC nor Marvel, I suspect, want to wait on a
bi-monthly schedule so we need for George to be well into #4 before
scheduling the monthly event.
October 28, 2002 | Karza's Baltimore Review
From Baron Karza
Baltimore Con
Monday, October 28 2002 at 7:14AM
Well the Baltimore convention for me was
cool. Got to meet Mr. Perez finally. Though my friend and I drove him
crazy with signing comics. He signed every issue of his Wonder Woman
run for her, and I went on a Find Perez Issue hunt, and every time I
found one, He signed it. Prime, Ultraforce, Wonder Woman, Superman.
Anyway, Mr. Perez let us know with some excitment on his face that DC
Comics is finally going to do Trade Paper backs of Wonder Woman 1-24.
Of course you know, this is Mr. Perez's run of Wonder Woman. Thought
you might like to know. Also he had the pencil cover for his new book
there. OUTSTANDING!!!!!!
Have fun.
I actually just left the Comic Con here
in Baltimore and George Perez was there. He stated that DC was planning
on putting his entire run as writer/artist on Wonder Woman, in three
volumes. 8 issues in each volume, if I'm not mistaken, to kinda
coincide with the whole JLA/Avengers thing. He's a nice guy and he
signed my Wonder Woman (vol 2) #2! Wooo!

Perez's Wonder Woman TP in 2003
Why are there no compilations of
WONDER WOMAN in the 50s. 60s and 70s? When are the collected Wonder
Woman TPB collections by George Perez coming out?
-- Sherman Williams
No plans for a WW IN THE (PICK YOUR DECADE) volume any time soon. The Perez volume is tentatively planned for next year.
