George Pérez

My all-time favorite comic book artist has died.

George Perez, comic book artist and cornerstone of the industry, has died aged 67. George was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer in 2021

Official obituary at CBRDC comics remembers himMarvel pays tribute.

I met him once, and he spent an hour penciling and inking with a sharpie a Batman portrait I have framed in my office. Sometimes, they say never meet your heroes. Well, for me, Mr. Pérez was wonderful.
