I've collected comics for years. Was once involved with an artist. Went to my first San Diego Comic Con
this past July. Yet its only now that i'm comfortable in calling myself
as a fan girl. I don't know why I was uncomfortable that in the past.
I'm not hiding it anymore. :) I recently joined Livejournal and was
looking for communities and discoverd this one. :)
Judd Winick is the reason why I fell in love with comics. It was George
Perez who made me fall in love with Wonder Woman. It was Grant Morrison
who made me fall in love with Emma Frost. Geoff Johns made DC less
complicated like that.

NEW TEEN TITANS #8 (Jun 1981)

(5:06) Brad Meltzer: In terms of what I love when I grew up. The best book as far as I'm concern, bar nothing, was Marv Wolfman and George Pérez's Teen Titans.
And Marv Wolfman is here, and that is -- (claps).
I mean, that -- I thank you, sir. That book was -- I can't even tell --
my novels are so affected by that writing -- my comics are affected by
that writing. And Identity Crisis is affected by that story.
Just from the Judas Contract alone and the idea of a surprise in a comic that I couldn't guess.
As I felt, as we all get older, we can all guess the endings. Now I can
tell you where I was sitting when turned that page and I saw Tara
talking to Deathstroke. And going, and there was no internet, no Previews, no nothing. And I just remember thinking, 'No, it's impossible!'
And I really felt that affected me forever.
And that idea of surprise your reader, but not with shock values, but with character. Character! Character! Character!
That Day in the Life story, was one of the greatest story ever. We pay homage to it in Justice League. But those stories were my bread and butter...

TEEN TITANS: THE JUDAS CONTRACT DVD
(2007)
|
|
“The Judas Contract movie will be closer to the original comic than even
the show [Teen Titans] was, and the show was very faithful to the
spirit of the original,” Wolfman told Newsarama, asked how the movie
will be different from DC animation series in the past. “I loved what
they did but I'm hoping we can be more adult in the handling of this
story.
”Whereas the Titans cartoon show was obviously aimed for kids, this is
not being aimed at the youngest kids as it will contain mature content.
It will be closer to the original comic but hopefully even stronger as
we'll have actors, which means we'll be able to do some more subtle
material. In comics you have to make readers read the dialogue as you
want them to, but of course that's impossible. Here we can have those
little verbal moments where a simple ‘grunt’ or ‘sigh’ or sound can
replace paragraphs of prose. Because it's a different medium, we alter
the way we tell our stories, playing to this medium's strengths as
George and I tried to do with the original, playing to the strength of
comics.”
“And yes,” Wolfman added, “Tom [DeSanto] and I intend for the ‘nightgown and cigarette" scene to be there.”

There were two rooms filled to capacity for the Mark Evanier hosted
panel, The Art of Cover. Basil Gogos, George Perez, Neal Adams, Adam
Hughes, Brian Boland, Joe Jusko, and DC editor Mark Chiarello were on
the panel to chat comics and covers. Also confirmed in this panel was
that Adam Hughes was working on the All Star Wonder Woman series.
(excerpt)
QUESTION: Evanier: What makes a great cover and which artist inspired them you get into the artistic business?
GEORGE PEREZ: He stated that that is an easy question to answer since he
usually draws both the cover and interior art. He stated that he
doesn't like the practice of one artist drawing the cover and another
artist drawing the interior art of a comic. He felt that that was
cheating the buyer. He stated that he personally likes the challenge of
trying to make a new cover each month. He also stated that he loves
Rockwell, Salvador Dali, Jack Kirby, Neal Adams, John Buscema and many
more. He stated that word balloons are OK to use but only sparingly.
Mark than asked George if he planned the cover before or after planning the interior art?
GEORGE PEREZ: He joked about how it depended on how late he was in drawing the comic itself.

SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2006 (20-23 Jul 2006) - San Diego, California |

Teen Titans: Written by Marv Wolfman and Tom DeSanto, with input
from George Perez, this film focuses on the '80s version of the Titans.
Though the specific storyline was not confirmed, DC used the cover of
the Judas Contract (one of the best Titans tales of all time) during the
announcement.
"This is just the beginning," Levitz assured. In fact, DC want to hear
from the fans as to what stories they'd like to see. Levitz stressed
that the series was for the fans and would retain the core essence and
look of the original tales. The audience shouted a number of possible
stories. One, however, earned a promising response from Levitz. "The
Dark Knight [Returns], we have talked about."
The voice talent has not been finalized for these films. DC is not yet
certain if the same actors will carry over in the same roles from one
film to the next.

SDCC '06: PAUL LEVITZ ON DC'S NEW ANIMATED PUSH
07-22-2006, 11:33 PM
SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2006 (20-23 Jul 2006) - San Diego, California |
|
As DC Publisher and President Paul Levitz announced at Saturday's DC:
One Year Greater panel, DC and Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Home
Video are looking to enter the direct to video marketplace in a big way,
with three upcoming animated movies: New Teen Titans: The Judas
Contract, Superman/Doomsday, and The New Frontier.
Bruce Timm will oversee the projects, and each will be faithful
adaptations of the original stories, carrying over the stories as well
as the art styles from the comics. As such, Darwyn Cooke, Marv Wolfman
and George Perez were all announced as helping with the adaptations.
Shortly after the announcement, we sat down with Levitz to talk about
the new deal, and learn a little more about the larger picture.
(excerpt)
NRAMA: In that vein, as you said at the panel, the different
features will be similar in style to the art that's in the original
comics?
Paul Levitz: That's the goal, and it's certainly the reason to
have George and Darwyn involved. With New Frontier, Darwyn's an animator
by trade, so like Marv on Titans, he brings with him a very powerful
knowledge of how to translate his own work. Animation's not the same
thing as comics, so there are certain translations to be made, but I
think you will feel the richness of Darwyn's work come through.

DC Comics held their major DC Universe-related panel of the Comic-Con weekend Saturday, and we're on hand for a full report.
(excerpt)
Working with Warner Bros. Home Video and WB Animation, the company will
launch a new line of direct-to-video DC animated movies that are being
designed with DC Comics fans in mind, Levitz said.
...The third title in the series will be an animated version of the
classic story Teen Titans story “The Judas Contract”, written by Marv
Wolfman. Tom DeStano (X-Men) will join Wolfman as co-writer and producer
on the film.
"This is just the beginning," Levitz said. "We're sitting around and thinking of more...so send all your suggestions in."
Levitz also added that George Perez will be working on the animated
Judas Contract as well, and that Bruce Timm will be overseeing all the
animated films.
"We’re looking at more than the last five minutes of history," Levitz
said in regards to what will differentiate this from movies such as Ultimate Avengers.
...
DC displayed the George Perez cover to Brave and the Bold #1, a November debuting ongoing series by Waid and Perez. Guess who the first story arcs stars..?

[SDCC] SPOTLIGHT ON GEORGE PEREZ
Posted July 20, 2006 9:30 PM
By Mike Cotton
Already known as a man who can pack more characters into a panel, spread
or cover than anyone else in comics, George Pérez packed more questions
and answers into a 90-minute panel than many creators could dream of on
any given con day.
(excerpt)
When asked what he thinks about current comics such as Wonder Woman or Avengers
that may change continuity that Pérez helped set, the artist boldly
said that fans have to remember these are not Pérez characters but
Marvel and DC heroes.
“There were fans who were vehemently against the changes I made in
Wonder Woman when I did that work, so it’s hypocritical for me to be
against how another creator may change a character I’ve worked on,” he
said. “These are Marvel and DC characters—not mine. I just hope fans
today enjoy these stories as much as maybe [fans] did when they read my
runs.”

SDCC: Ravager by George Perez
Saturday, July 22, 2006 posted by Nightwing @ 11:07 AM
George Perez was once again doing sketches at the ACTOR booth at San
Diego. And I was lucky enough to get a sketch from the Maestro himself!
The question: Which Titans should George draw? I chose the Ravager,
since I a.) really like Rose Wilson and b.) thought George may never get
the chance to draw her.
Turns out, George just drew Ravager for the soon-to-be-published double
page spread in the INFINITE CRISIS special edition. As previously
reported, Perez redrew the double page spread of One Year Later
characters for INFINITE CRISIS #7 in the upcoming special edition
version. The spread features over 120 characters!
As for Rose, George mentioned that he drew her with some of Slade's
facial features: longer nose, high cheekbones and a slight widow's peak
hairline. He thought she should resemble dear ol' dad.
George mentioned that he was thrilled at the turnout of his panel
yesterday. And he's extremely grateful for all his fans after all these
years.

Friday, July 21, 2006 posted by Nightwing @ 2:23 AM
One of comics’ most popular artists for over 30 years, George Pérez has a
résumé that contains a who’s who of comics’ most memorable characters.
Now working exclusively for DC, and an integral part of their recent
Infinite Crisis, George talked about his career and opens up the floor
to Q&A.
(excerpt)
On influences: French illustrators [and their level of detail]; Norman
Rockwell ["Curt Swam was the Norman Rockwell of comics", says George];
Dali; Escher; and a host of others.
On the Death of the Golden Age Superman: In INFINITE CRISIS, George said
he wanted to treat that scene very carefully: "Dammit, if he's gonna
die, I'm going to treat him with respect" George did the scene in
shadow, so you didn't see his mangled body. And the last panel initially
called for two shining stars in the night; But George changed it to the
image of the Golden Age Superman and Lois Lane in their prime. He
wanted the last shot of Superman to appear just as he did when he
started.

George Perez said Thursday that he's enjoying the Brave and the Bold
series he's doing with writer Mark Waid, but that he's already got his
eyes on his next project.
"For a man who's drawn a legion of superheroes, I have never drawn a
Legion of Super-Heroes story," Perez said, drawing an enthusiastic
response from the crowd, though he admitted that the idea hasn't passed
beyond internal discussions at DC.
(excerpt)
Still, one job that he won't be returning to any time soon is the
Titans' Graphic novel Games. Perez took responsibility for the project's
demise, and said that his schedule hadn't allowed him to work on it,
and now that he's signed an exclusive contract with DC through the year
2010. DC is interested in seeing other projects first. He refused to
rule out returning to the project eventually, but was not optimistic
about it.
"I think I've said what I needed to say about the Titans," he said.

After some touching speeches, the blue banner was dropped, revealing a
huge banner of all 20 stamps, causing a thunderous applause from fans.
Levitz was then honored by the USPS, which resulted in even more cheers
from the audience. "The first day of the Comic-Con is generally the best
day of the year in the business," said Levitz. "And it is for me." He
then proceeded to honor the artists in attendance, who art appears on
the stamps: Neal Adams, Jerry Robinson, Carmine Infantino, Elizabeth
Kane (wife of Bob Kane), Lisa Kirby (on behalf of Jack Kirby), Adam
Kubert (on behalf of Joe Kubert), Jim Lee, Edgar May (on behalf of the
family of William Moultan Marston), Sheldom Moldoff, George Perez, Mike
Royer, Scott Williams and more.
"It beats the hell out of real work," laughed Levitz who thanked fans
for making it possible to work in this industry, telling stories and
creating art as a means of making a living. He also joked with Jim Lee,
asking him "what else do you have left to do?" as the young artist has
seemingly achieved every honor in the industry. Perez also joked that it
was foruitous that the USPS chose his one cover without a background,
poking fun at his reputation, and added that if another of his covers
would have been chosen, "it would have looked like a smudge."

From George Pérez
This is a list of the comics conventions I will be attending in 2006.
Some are "rain-check" appearances for shows that I had to cancel in 2005
due to health reasons. In some cases this puts me in a position of
attending some conventions on back-to-back weekends, but it couldn't be
helped. I hope to be able to get together with a lot of my fans next
year and will be warming up my autograph hand.
February 24th - 26th: MegaCon, Orlando, FL
April 21st - 23rd: Pittsburgh Comicon, Monroeville, PA
April 28th - 30th: Paradise Toronto Comicon, Toronto, Canada
May 19th - 21st: Motor City Con, Novi, Michigan
June 30th - July 2nd: Heroes Con, Charlotte, NC
July 20th - 23rd: Comicon International, San Diego, CA
September 1st- 4th: Dragon Con, Atlanta, GA
September 9th - 10th: Baltimore Comic Con, Baltimore, MD
I will also be attending the October Portland, OR show for Second
Genesis (another rain-check from 2005) but I still have no confirmed
date.
That should keep me busy for the year in between issues of THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD.
