George Perez posted news I never wanted to read this morning. This is a gut punch on so many levels. His art defined comics for me when I was a kid discovering comics.
Absolutely heartbroken.

Very sad to hear. But I applaud his bravery in dealing with this on his own terms. Probably my favorite comic artist, and also my favorite comic-con experience was meeting him, and getting a beautiful Nightwing sketch.

Such sad news...Comment

That’s a shame. I met him several times at local comic shops. Living fla he did quite a few appearances in the state. Great guy. About the nicest comic person I’ve met.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

My heart goes out to him. My best friend’s wife just had a 1.6 cm growth on her pancreas removed. It was pinching one of the ducts on her liver. She’s on chemo now. Hoping it didn’t spread. So far clear, but still crossing fingers.
Damn cancer…sigpicComment

George Perez has passed away.
One of the greatest artists of all time, one of my enduring favourites. A true legend in the comics industry.

I just got home from my FCBD run and saw that. Perez's art defined super-hero comics for me as a kid. His legacy will endure.
RIP Mr. Perez.

RIP. His art made a big impression on me in Avengers, JLA, and especially Teen Titans.

Perez was indeed the total package. One of comics' best artists, a great writer, and a wonderful, warm human being who was so gracious and pleasant to his fans. I agree, they'll never be another like him.Comment
