>>>  Announcement from George Perez From George Perez
Happy New Year to all my fans, friends and family!
Well, today, Jan. 19th, 2020, marks ONE YEAR since I officially announced my retirement from drawing comics and attending comic convention. I have to say that my life has been quite nice, although a bit busier than I anticipated. I can tell you that I have been enjoying not having to deal with the stress and strain of air travel and trying to make my way through strange surroundings with my less-than-perfect vision. However, there’s one thing I didn’t consider when I announced that I would no longer be attending conventions, sketching and doing commissions. I always took great pleasure and personal pride in the amount of money those activities raised for the many charities, friends and family members I’ve helped through the years. I find that, despite enjoying the downtime, I really do need to keep drawing …it is, after all, what I do and who I am. So, that being said, after much consideration and a lot of requests, I’ve decided to start doing private home commissions again. There will be a few restrictions due to my vision issues, such as no backgrounds ( unless I decide to throw one in on my own ), no multi figure group shots, no portraits of real people and no cover recreations. What I will be able to offer are Full-Figure marker line art with pencil-tone illustrations on standard 11” X 17” comic industry Bristol Board and convention-style head shots on 9” X 12” Bristol paper ( no pencil tones ). Please understand that these will not be inexpensive since I want to be able to raise as much money as possible and I’m limited to how many commissions I can draw any given week without straining my eyes & starting to see double. For those that will be asking … the prices will be as follows :
All prices are plus $30.00 for US domestic shipping ( Hawaii and Alaska add an additional $10 shipping ) International Shipping Rates based upon distance. PayPal payments are acceptable and actually preferred. Ask for details when placing your order. Further, in addition to my annual appearances at Dragon Con and Fetish Con … I have one more make-up convention appearance to honor in 2020, which should be officially announced in a few weeks … that will be my entire convention schedule for this year. For said appearance, we will accept a limited number of pre-convention sketch requests. There will be a limited quantity available. Check my fan website george-perez.net for more information as they become available. Next bit of good news … In addition to the sketch offerings … I will also be offering private, bulk signings for those wishing to participate in those as well. CGC & CBCS signings are welcome as well as long as proper arrangements are made in advance. Minimum quantity for all signings are 50 pieces. Larger quantities are encouraged and available with proper arrangements as well. Prices available upon request based upon volume. If any of this sounds desirable to you, please contact my long-time art agent Spencer Beck of The Artists Choice at SpencerBck@aol.com for any additional questions, concerns or other pertinent information regarding sketches and signings. Attached are some examples of some sketches I’ve done for clients in the last few months to so that you can get an idea as to what I’m offering. I look forward to getting back to my drawing board for you! Respectfully,  George Perez to appear at MegaCon 2020 (16-19 April 2020)

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. — This news story is for October 2019’s MCM London Comic Con —

Commission details for Amazing Las Vegas 2019 posted May 7, 2019, 11:28 PM
From Spencer
Commissions will go on sale Thursday, May 16, 2019 at exactly midnight (Eastern Time Zone). I will ONLY use
the time stamp as given by my email host ( spencerbck@aol.com ) and
they have the final word as to when it is received, not I. Any requests
that come in before midnight will be disqualified ... even if they come
in at 11:59:59 PM ..... 12 MIDNIGHT and not a second earlier.
Bear in mind that for Amazing Comic Con - Hawaii, C2E2 and East Coast
Comic Convention commission lists sold out in FOUR SECONDS (Yes, at 12:00:04 all commissions were sold out) so make sure to get your order in as quickly as possible at the deadline.
Please make sure to include your EXACT request as any emails that come in without the character are disqualified and discarded. All orders must have your first and last name in them as well the exact request. Emails that say "Please put me on the list" do not count and are disqualified. You MUST have all of the requested info in the email. Remember, Mr. Perez is doing single character, head shots ONLY and nothing else. One request per person, per name, per household, per family, or per address. You must be present at the show to pick up the artwork in person ... NO PROXIES. Sketch cover or sketch book or jam board requests are NOT accepted. SORRY. Too many potential problems and we do not wish to be responsible for anyone having a bad experience should the item be lost, damaged or destroyed anywhere in the process or shipping thereof. Finally, he is doing only 15 commissions total for the show. There will be no on site drawing done. I hope this is not too blunt, and hopefully, this answers all outstanding questions. We reserve the right to adjust the rules should some unforeseen question come up that has not yet been addressed.
DATE : JANUARY 19, 2019
FROM : George Pérez To all my loyal and kind fans who have supported me throughout the decades, In recent months, there has been a great deal of speculation as to the future of my career, my health, my ability to draw and my future convention appearances. As a result, I would like to clear up everything first hand so that, hopefully, any rumors, speculation and misinformation can be laid to rest. With respect to future published work in comics and such ... while I know it’s been no secret that I’ve been dealing with a myriad number of health issues (diabetes, heart ailments, vision issues, etc.), they have indeed have forced me to, for all intents and purposes, formally retire from the business of creating new comic stories. As for home commission requests, I’m afraid that my retirement must now extend to privately commissioned drawings as well. While I am gratified that all of the customers who have received their pieces were more than pleased with the results, some even consequently commissioning more of them, it’s just becoming too much of a strain on my eyes to produce the fully rendered ink and pencil-tone pieces on a quality level that justifies the price I’m being paid for them. In regards to convention sketches, I will need to cut back on those as well. While I will no longer sketch at the conventions themselves, I will, through my art agent Spencer Beck of The Artists Choice, be taking orders for 5 ( FIVE ) con-style head sketches, per convention day that I am in attendance which will be done at home to be collected at the conventions. Fans placing orders must be personally present to pick up the piece , NO PROXIES. The price for these will be a good deal pricier than in the past, going for $100 each, but please take some solace that all the monies I earn for these sketches, as well as my appearance fees, will be donated to various charities. To place an order, or for initial details, please contact Spencer / The Artist's Choice directly at Spencerbck@aol.com. Any changes or further announcements will be made by Spencer and myself on his website theartistschoice.com/perez.htm and on my fan website george-perez.net Furthermore, for those that are interested … although I will only be attending about six conventions this year and one make up convention in 2020 ( *** see below for complete schedule ) 2019 will more than likely be my last year touring this great land meeting so many great fans. As the next decade begins, I have two shows, Dragon Con and Fetish Con that have personal meaning to me which I intend to attend yearly unless circumstances prevent it … but, for all intents, 2019 will wind down that part of my career as well. The good news is, even though I will not be sketching at the shows, I will still be autographing and be available for photo ops, and, as has been my policy throughout my career, I will not be charging for either. In closing, please don’t feel sorry for me about all these life and career changes. Thankfully I earn more than enough income through royalties to have a comfortable life wherein I may never need to work again. Unless, of course, something really tempting comes along and I’m given sufficient lead time. Hey, you never know. Long story short, I will be just fine. I’ve had a wonderfully good run doing exactly what I have wanted to do since I was a child. Now I can sit back and watch the stuff I helped create entertain whole new generations. That’s a pretty nice legacy to look back on. And so much of that is thanks to all of you, the GREATEST fans in the world. I am humbled and forever grateful. Wishing you all a safe, happy and healthy 2019 and beyond,
 UPDATE: Mr. Perez will
not be accepting requests until approximately 30 days before each
specific show. Sketches will be approved at one per person, family or
address. First come, First serve. So , please check back 30 days before
the show. He will only be doing 9 x 12 head shots and they must be paid
for in full at the time the order is accepted.

Spencer writes:
We will be taking HEAD SHOT ONLY advance orders before show
appearances. These will be the same types of drawings he has been doing
at shows for years on 9" x 12" board head shots only. Although we have
not set it in stone, most likely the price will be $50. To protect
George, we will require prepayment. You will just need to bring a
receipt to the show to pick up your piece. Although there is no
guarantee, most likely they will be more detailed than in the past as if
he is doing them at home where he won't be trying to do them as fast as
he can to get to the next fan, hence there will be the per show limit.
Of course, he is still doing the full body pencil, Copic marker ink.and pencil tone commissions for the $700 and $1,100 levels as well. These a full figure, fully detailed pieces that are single figures only. No more than one figure per piece ... all subject to approval. Exact show commission details will be announced towards the end of 2018 as we prepare for the 2019 convention circuit. In the meantime, if you wish to order the full body pieces, please get in touch with me at SpencerBck@aol.com to place an order, for samples or any questions related to the full body commissions. I am sorry, NO head shot commissions until 2019. No exceptions, I am sorry. NOTE: George will draw these commissions on 9x12 boards prior to the convention appearance for pickup, so he cannot draw on your personal sketch book or requested surfaces. Also, there will be a limit to how many George can draw per convention appearance.George Perez's possible 2019 shows posted 08/18/2018

Just speculation, but it may appear that George Perez's 2019 schedule is
probably to make up for his cancellations from his 2017 shows due to
his heart attack.
So, given that information, below were his cancelled 2017 dates:
