MegaCon
It was with heavy heart but great admiration to be present for the George Pérez memorial service hosted at MegaCon Orlando inside the sprawling Orange County Convention Center. …
Though it only may be the unofficial start of Summer, it is definitely the official start of comic convention season and we packed up our Avengers Quinjetto flydown to Orlando, FL for the Southeast’s largest show, MegaCon Orlando 2022.
Comic book shows have been held in Central Florida since the 70s, and this particular show began in 1993, with former publisher CrossGenpurchasing it in 1999, and its current UK owner, Informa, taking charge in 2015 under its Fan Expo banner. Fan Expo more recently also assumed ...

I grew up with George Perez's art. From his early Marvel art on The Avengers in the 70's to his extraordinary work on Justice League Of America and The New Teen Titans in the early 80's. He has worked on every major (and not so major) DC and Marvel Comics character.
I am not aware of him ever doing a UK Con, and used to be so jealous of
US con goers who had autos and photos from him. Today I met my comic
hero, and he didn't disappoint.
George is a lovely man, and I was probably more star struck meeting him
than any of the Doctor Who people i have met. He amazingly was signing
for free-three at a time-then you could re queue. Just as well, as I had
The New Teen Titans Omnibus, the Man Wolf Complete Collection (he told me that was his first colour comics work) The Titans TV DVD, a huge print of the cover of the first issue of New Titans 1 and Crisis On Infinite Earths Anniversary edition. I managed to get his auto on the JLA, TT and Wonder Woman pages inside the hardcover's reprint of History of The DC Universe. He really lit up when he saw the WW page.
When I returned for the third time (I had bought a large print of Avengers 187
which infamous Marvel editor/writer Jim Shooter had signed too) I told
him this will definitely be my final visit "I'm already crying" he
smirked.
So many happy people meeting this legend, but possibly not as happy as I was!
One of
the best fan encounters I’ve ever had. George Pérez was a charming as he
is talented, took a lot of time to sign my books and speak to me about
his long career in comics and artwork. And he complimented my cosplay.
So happy to meet this legend in his field during his final appearance to
the UK. Enjoy a well earned retirement Mr Pérez and thank you for all
the amazing work.

They say you shouldn’t ever meet your heroes, but today I finally met
mine and he more than exceeded my expectations. His run of Wonder Woman
is what got me into comics, I am such a huge fan of his artwork and
story arcs. I owe a lot to this man.
I didn’t think I’d ever get the chance to meet him with his previous
ill health and subsequent retirement, so I’m honoured to have had the
chance to meet him at his final UK Con appearance.
He was as friendly as everyone had said he was, and he said he liked my dress 🙃

Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the co-creator of
Raven, George Pérez. I caught him just as he was leaving as he wasn’t
feeling well but he still found the time to talk to me and take photos
with me and was just absolutely lovely.
It was really fantastic to meet
him and I’m so happy I got to show him my Raven cosplay 💜
Today George realised that he had competition at MCM London. This is my 7
year old daughter Rose sitting next to this amazing man and drawing
some of her favourite heroes.

Legendary artist George Perez (Wonder Woman, Justice League) is grateful
he can afford to retire because of his works. What have the US
creatives done right that #anime creatives can learn from in terms of
pay, IP, copyrights & working conditions?

MCM COMIC CON LONDON 2019 (25-27 Oct 2019)
London, England
Legendary comic creator George Pérez is to make his final UK convention
appearance at MCM London this October, giving his many fans in Europe
the chance to celebrate one of the industry’s best-loved figures.
Formally announcing his retirement earlier this year, Pérez has thrilled
readers with his art for over four decades, drawing for a host of
landmark Marvel and DC titles.
Inducted
into the Eisner Awards Hall of Fame in 2017 and famed for his
ambitious, action-packed crowd scenes, George Pérez’s credits read like a
Who’s Who of top superheroes. However, the New York-born Pérez is
probably best known for his work on The Avengers, The New Teen Titans, Wonder Woman and the industry-changing Crisis on Infinite Earths.
George Pérez shot to prominence at Marvel with an enormously successful run on The Avengers
in the ’70s, returning to the franchise in the ’90s to relaunch the
comic book with writer Kurt Busiek. Meanwhile, Pérez made his mark at DC
with his co-creation alongside Marv Wolfman of The New Teen Titans, which became one of the publisher’s most popular titles. The pair again collaborated on the famous DC Universe reboot Crisis on Infinite Earths, widely regarded as one of the greatest comic book crossovers ever. Another triumph for Pérez at DC was his 1987 reboot of Wonder Woman, which he worked on as plotter, penciler and writer.
Other credits on Pérez’s résumé include Justice League of America, Superman, Fantastic Four, The Brave and the Bold, Batman, Supergirl, Silver Surfer and The Incredible Hulk.
