George Perez will have art prints for sale at conventionsMark C asks:
EAST COAST COMICON 2019 (17-19 May 2019)
Meadowlands, New Jersey
Does George sell prints of his artwork when attending conventions? I'm eyeing the Niagara Falls show and would be very interested in getting an Infinity Gauntlet #1 cover print signed if possible.
Answer: Based on this photo from ECC, it appears that George Perez will have large prints of his artwork available for purchase. I do not know if Infinity Gauntlet #1 is among one of the prints, but NTT#1 (Baxter) and JLA/Avengers #3 for sure. Update: Jason V said: Infinity Gauntlet #1 WASN'T there at East Coast Comicon

In the latest episode of AMC's original series Robert Kirkman's Secret History of Comics
Episode 4, "City of Heroes", they mentioned how Marvel Comics was first
on the scene with "Heroes" book (which George Perez contributed).
Previously, in
Episode 2, "The Truth About Wonder Woman", they had interviews with Phil
Jimenez and Andy Mangels (but no references to George Perez, even
though Mangels mentioned he talked about Perez in details).

I changed my profile pick just for Sunday, 9/11/11. I drew it 10 years
ago as part of a tribute/charity anthology published in 2001. It means
just as much now. Thanks to colorist Tom Smith for providing the file.
May we never forget.
Proceeds from the sale of HEROES will go to the
Twin Towers Fund, which is providing much needed financial aid to
families of firefighters, police officers, and other uniformed personnel
who died during the attack on the WTC.

Hi All..
Here is George's and my contribution to this great project.
Thanks Joe Q for giving us a chance to help out in this great cause.
God Bless America and all our allies around the world.
Tom Smith "ACAL!"
September 22, 2001
From George Pérez
I am drawing the Marvel tribute piece this weekend so that Tom Smith can
color it and get it done in time for the Sept. 28th deadline (a very tight
schedule on this job). Using an American flag motif, my piece will not
feature any Marvel characters, but instead focus on the real heroes of this
tragic event-- firefighters, police, EMT workers, doctors, nurses,
engineers, etc. The two smoldering towers will each be placed in the center
vertical stripes of the on-end flag. That's as close a description as I can
give. As is usual with my work, there may be some changes made as I actually
draw it.

Update from George Pérez
From George Pérez
I am doing a pin-up for Marvel's tribute book to benefit the NY
relief effort with CrossGen Comics' permission and blessing. It was
important for me to contribute this way since, as a diabetic, I don't even
have the option of donating blood. I did have to get some more pages of
CROSSGEN CHRONICLES #5 finished first since I didn't want inker Pablo Marcos
to be without work during any of this. Due to various circumstances,
including having our 20th wedding anniversary European vacation cancelled
due to the terrorist attacks, (my wife and I were supposed to fly out on
Sept. 11th) I've fallen behind schedule, although not severely enough to
jeopardize CHRONICLES #5's shipping on time.
I am drawing the Marvel tribute piece this weekend so that Tom Smith can
color it and get it done in time for the Sept. 28th deadline (a very tight
schedule on this job). Using an American flag motif, my piece will not

tragic event-- firefighters, police, EMT workers, doctors, nurses,
engineers, etc. The two smoldering towers will each be placed in the center
vertical stripes of the on-end flag. That's as close a description as I can
give. As is usual with my work, there may be some changes made as I actually
draw it.
As for AVENGERS/JLA, (as it is called at Marvel, which is publishing the
first issue) I have now tied the page count I reached with the 1983 version.
21 pages have been pencilled-- although, unlike the original edition, seven
pages have also been fully inked, thus putting me ahead of the game this
time around. I wanted to finish my CrossGen commitments before I pencilled
the historic 22nd page, just so that it actually marks the start of non-stop
progress on the series.
One page of the new art holds the current record for the most characters
on a page in either versions of this project. There are 36 individual
characters drawn-- with 21 appearing in one panel alone. That number does
not include the fact that a few characters make multiple appearances on the
page. Tom Brevoort assures me that that record will be broken soon enough.
I'm going to get to draw a LOT of characters in this limited series--
including the Keystone Cops.
I am also drawing a pair of covers for WIZARD's 2002 preview issue
spotlighting the JLA/AVENGERS (as DC calls it) project. One version will
feature Thor and Wonder Woman; the other will spotlight Captain America and
Superman. All in all, my plate is quite full.
Alex: You called that one – I believe the word was “disgusting”.
Mark: I believe it is disgusting. I thought Heroes was a
tremendously positive effort on their part, I wish they would have
invited some CrossGen artists to participate but they never did, which
was disappointing. Other than George Perez, who considers himself a
CrossGen artist – not a Marvel or DC artist – I think Heroes was
tremendous. I bought copies myself. I advised my people to. I am very
supportive of any project, whether it be Heroes to help folks who were
impacted by that terrible tragedy or ACTOR to promote gathering monies
for Silver and Golden Age creators. I’m behind that.
If you say that our objective is to promote real world heroes and you do
that before 9-11, I applaud you. If you wait until all of the positive
publicity about Heroes, which you did as a gesture of public
support and courtesy, and then come out with multiple lines of comics,
promoting every day heroes who traditionally don’t get comic books,
publicize the heck out of it in light of the September 11th tragedy and
then offer, for all intents and purposes a no-overprint policy putting
retailers in a position of not being able to gauge the ethics of the
product. I think you do the retailer a disservice and I think you insult
the people involved in the tragedy.
...
Alex: You’re never going to move an artist based on the fact that they might be better suited to something else?
Mark: If you think that was the reason he was moved, good for you.
Anyone who has moved here has moved by their own desire. Well, it didn’t
sound to me like that was his desire. It sounded to me like he was
basically told, “This is your job. Do what you’re told or you’re gone.”
It sounded to me like he didn’t want to leave the X-Book. And from
looking at his art style I don’t see how he’s a Manga artist at all but
maybe I’m confused. After looking at thousands of Manga books I probably
don’t have a very good grasp of what it is.
Let me ask you this: They fire people at Marvel who don’t meet
deadlines. Do they fire big names who don’t meet deadlines? I don’t
think so.
I generate equal punishment and reward systems, if that’s how you want
to look at it at CrossGen. I do this evenhandedly. Doesn’t matter
whether you’re George Perez or Carl Moline, everybody works under the
same parameters.
These things come into question because the biggest and the best in the
industry should set the standard, if that’s what they are, should set
the standard for the type of industry we are. If you set standards that,
in my opinion, are inappropriate for the leadership position I will
call you on it. I would do it if I were in technology. I will do it in
comics.
I got a bit of a surprise this week reading Mark Alessi's
comments regarding Marvel Comics at MegaCon. I wasn't so much surprised
by the comments, so much as the fact Mr. Alessi was making them
publicly. Many people have known Mr. Alessi's feelings on the House of
Ideas but they've been asked to keep quiet on the subject.
...
The next section has caused a bit of controversy:
If you have the interest as a publisher to make a comic book about real
heroes - firemen, paramedics, police officers - God bless you. They do
things that protect us everyday all over this country. If you come out
with that series after 9-11, you're using one of the greatest tragedies
in American history as a marketing ploy. I'm sorry. I salute you if you
do it before 9-11, you disgust me if you do it after 9-11. Thousands of
people died, and we (Marvel) promoted comic books. Not only did we
promote comic books, we hyped the heck out of it so retailers bought
them by the droves, and now they're sitting back there with a ton of
Valiant comics. And pretty soon, they'll be in the penny box and we'll
shred these things so we can send stuffed toys from China with them.
CrossGen sent an email to HeroRealm.com requesting clarification on this point. Bill Rosemann had this to say on the subject:
He was talking about CALL TO DUTY. He knows HEROES was a tribute done to
raise money for the Twin Towers Fund, and totally respects that. In
fact, George Perez was allowed to contribute to it even though he was
exclusive to CrossGen at the time. So Mark has no problem at all with
HEROES... during his panel he mentioned CALL TO DUTY by name, but
perhaps that wasn't reported in the panel highlights.
CrossGen sent an email to
HeroRealm.com requesting clarification on one point that might not have
been made clear in the Bill Jemas responses. During the panel Mark
Alessi was not speaking about Heroes but rather was talking about Call
to Duty. Bill Rosemann had this to say on the subject:
"He was talking about CALL TO DUTY. He knows HEROES was a tribute done
to raise money for the Twin Towers Fund, and totally respects that. In
fact, George Perez was allowed to contribute to it even though he was

Note: Pulse will be running an interview with Mark at some point either
today or tomorrow. Go by and check it out. I will be doing a follow-up
interview with Mark on Wednesday that should be posted either Thursday
or Friday evening. Check back for that as it promises to be of interest.
Excerpt from back cover:
Comic book universes are populated by colorful characters that possess fantastic powers.
But on September 11th, 2001, an untold number of real men and women amazed the world with their phenomenal acts of bravery.
When others ran away, they charged forward. When others reached
out for safety, they offered a helping hand. When others cried out, they
responded with a soothing voice.
And, tragically, many of them died...but in doing so taught us all how to live.
They can't stick to walls.
They can't summon thunder.
They can't fly.
Marvel Comics is helping take Heroes one step further.
Marvel has already sold over 300,000 copies of Heroes, the tribute book
benefiting the Twin Towers Fund in the wake of Sept. 11's terrorist
attacks. Now, Marvel is putting much of the original art from that book
up for auction.
Club 101, located at 101 Park Ave. in New York City, will play
host to an auction on Thursday, Jan. 17 at 6 PM. Live attendees of the
auction will be charged a $250 donation to the Twin Towers Fund, and the
auction will be run simultaneously by All-Star Auctions at www.allstarauc.com. Kevin Smith will serve as live auctioneer.

HEROES THIRD PRINTING
Consumer News - Week of 1/7/02
Four months after the September 11 terrorist attacks on America, Marvel
Comics and comics' top creators continue to help readers contribute to
the ongoing relief efforts via the third -- and final -- printing of its
sold-out Heroes (NOV015021, SRP: $3.50) and the debut of the anthology A
Moment of Silence (NOV011799, SRP: $3.50), both of which ship this
week.
Heroes' tributes to the brave police officers, firefighters, and
rescue workers who gave their lives during the attack on the World Trade
Center -- and to those who survived to aid in the long recovery --
recently earned higher praise from the people it honors, relayed via
Jeff Koob, a Red Cross Disaster Mental Health Volunteer working in New
York, providing support services for the recovery workers at Ground
Zero.
"[Heroes] was well-received
by the recovery workers who looked through it," Koob wrote. "As the
days pass and the facts sink in, and the sometimes grueling -- sometimes
harrowing -- work becomes more routine, the men and women of the NYPD
and FDNY need all the support they can get; and in that regard, perhaps
the timing and delivery of Heroes was fortuitous. Thanks for putting out
Heroes -- great job!"
Marvel Comics extends an invitation on behalf of our artists to bid on select pieces of original art from the acclaimed HEROES book.
All proceeds from this charity aution will go to the victims of the
World Trade Center. Please join us as we auction off these original
pieces by:

nice to see comic books being mentioned on TV.
MARVEL's MOMENT OF SILENCE
posted 12-14-2001 04:31 PM
(excerpt)
In addition to a final, third printing of Heroes on Jan. 9th, a
fundraising auction of Heroes artwork on Jan. 17th, Alternative Comics
9-11 Emergency Relief on Jan. 16th, and the two September 11th Volumes
by DC, Dark Horse, Image, Chaos! (with assistance from Oni and Top
Shelf) scheduled for Jan. 23rd, Marvel’s other fundraising effort, A
Moment of Silence, has been given a Jan. 9th release date.
Okay, now that that's all said and done, here's the latest report on
HEROES. As of yesterday it seems that we completely sold out of our
second print run. We're looking into back orders to see if the number is
significant enough to make a third printing worth doing. Fox News ran a
wonderful piece today (Thanksgiving Day) on HEROES and it had some
great segments with John Cassaday, Neal Adams and myself. I want to
thank everyone who supported this project by purchasing it at their
local shop. Keep your eyes open for Moment of Silence, it's really going
to be another special book. Speaking of special books, I've been
checking out some of the stuff from all the other tribute books on tap
and it's truly inspiring stuff. Please make it a point to support these
magnificent books as well, there are a lot of wonderful writers, artist,
editors and publishers putting their heart and soul into these
projects!
I've been getting tons of e-mail's concerning the art of HEROES and
although the news is still vague it looks like the artwork is going to
be auctioned off sometime in January. The live auction which is
scheduled to take place at a very exclusive and prestigious club in NYC
will have 20 or so choice pieces, the rest of the book will most likely
be auctioned off simultaneously on Ebay, or so is the plan. More details
as we learn 'em!”
Second Printing copies of Heroes (AUG015059, MSRP: $3.50) are available
from retailers, but are selling out rapidly. However, Marvel plans to
keep the book in print.
'HEROES' SELLS OUT, GOES TO SECOND PRINTING by Jonah Weiland, Executive Producer
Posted: October 19, 2001
Official Press Release
Hey, True Believer!
Thanks to an avalanche of media coverage, the first printing of HEROES, the
comic book community's salute to the world's real heroes, has completely
sold out! But never fear, because a second printing is now underway!
Best of all, not only will the second printing of HEROES soon be available,
but Marvel will once again donate the proceeds from the sale of each issue
to the Twin Towers Fund. Retailers are encouraged to check in with their
Diamond Representative for information regarding the second printing.
Some of these are a few days old, but I thought I'd mention them anyway.
Also, I think this is kind of nice, but I think we beat most of the
other news site by mentioning MegaCon 2002 on October 11th. I've
noticed two other site just now talking about MegaCon.
Marvel's Bill Rosemann said that the first printing of Heroes, Marvel's
poster book benefiting the Twin Towers Fund, has sold out.
"Thanks to everyone's efforts, Diamond is now entirely sold out of the
first printing of Heroes - of which more than 20,000 were ordered
between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. today," Rosemann said.
"A few hours ago I received a call from a woman living in Florida who
saw Joe Quesada and Adam Kubert on the Today Show this morning, and
wanted to buy copies for her nieces and nephews," Rosemann said.
"Believe it or not, not only did the person working at her local comics
shop not have copies of Heroes, but had never even heard of the project!
The good news is that they are now being buried in phone calls asking
about Heroes."
For a transcript of the appearance of Quesada and Kubert on The Today Show on Wednesday, CLICK HERE.
It's no secret that Marvel loves generating headlines - to get readers
excited not only about our comics but also about the entire comics
industry - but this time it's special. This time we're selling books for
the best reason of all: to help others. As you know, the proceeds from
the sale of the 64-page poster magazine will go to the Twin Towers Fund,
which will in turn give the money to the people who are truly in need.
Proceeds from the sale of HEROES will go to the
Twin Towers Fund, which is providing much needed financial aid to
families of firefighters, police officers, and other uniformed personnel
who died during the attack on the WTC.
Additional donations can be made to: The Twin Towers Fund, General Post Office, P.O. Box 26999, New York, NY 10087-6999.)

MARVEL TRIBUTE BOOK "HEROES" UPDATE
by Jonah Weiland, Executive Producer
Posted: September 21, 2001
Many tribute books have been announced in the days following the Attack
on America September 11th. One book that has fans really excited is the
Marvel Comics tribute book called "Heroes." Bill Rosemann, the
Marketing Communications Manager for Marvel Comics, mentioned it in an interview on September 14th and gave CBR News an update today with a list of the latest contributors.
The book will be a full-color pin-up book, 64 pages, perfect bound and
will retail for $3.50. Contributors to the piece are "responding and
reflecting on the tragedy in various forms, focusing on all sorts of
subjects," said Rosemann.
I am drawing the Marvel tribute piece this weekend so that Tom Smith can
color it and get it done in time for the Sept. 28th deadline (a very tight
schedule on this job). Using an American flag motif, my piece will not
feature any Marvel characters, but instead focus on the real heroes of this
tragic event-- firefighters, police, EMT workers, doctors, nurses,
engineers, etc. The two smoldering towers will each be placed in the center
vertical stripes of the on-end flag. That's as close a description as I can
give. As is usual with my work, there may be some changes made as I actually
draw it.
Joe Quesada has always had a deep admiration and
respect for firefighters --
his character, Ash, was a
fireman, and Quesada has
worked with various conventions to organize
fundraisers for firefighters. Now, as Marvel editor-in-chief, Quesada is
organizing a major tribute for the firefighters and law enforcement
personnel who risked -- and in
many cases sacrificed -- their lives to save
others during the World Trade Center disaster.
"The concept is very simple," Quesada told
CSNsider. "The world's greatest super-hero
creators honoring the world's greatest
Heroes!
"The book is a sixty-four page poster style magazine. Artists are asked
to contribute
an image that portrays our American heroes. I've
discouraged use of Marvel heroes for the obvious reasons but some
artists are choosing to use them anyway. Writers are being asked to
contribute a sentence a paragraph or what have you that is suitable for
the moment -- inspirational hopefully.
