Comics Fans Pay Tribute To George Perez

Videos by ComicBook.com

“When I was asked to come up with a design and layout that would honor George Pérez and his many incredible contributions to DC Comics over the years, I was truly honored,” said Dan Jurgens. “I have admired George’s work since I first saw it and have had the good fortune to work with him in different capacities, on a number of projects. More importantly, I’ve been able to see the way George treats fans and readers, always smiling, gregarious and approachable. It was a joy to watch this cover come together and I’m sure everyone who contributed feels the same way.”

Thank you. All of you, for the love and support you have shown George through all of this.

It meant the world to him. pic.twitter.com/zputTLO2sF

Our thoughts and prayers are with George Perez’s family and friends at this time.

Lost a real super hero

Jack Kirby and John Romita were my childhood, but, more than any other comic book artist, GEORGE PEREZ was my EVERYTHING.
His tremendous talent was exceeded only by his humanity and kindness.
Condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones.

So much style

George Perez was the first comic artist whose style I recognized. Here are some of my favorite images from his epic run on the Titans, which is also the book that ignited my love of comics.

May he Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/yjHNsikVee

Eye-opening work

RIP to comic book legend, George Perez. His work on New Teen Titans & Crisis on Infinite Earths was my gateway to reading DC Comics. And gave me the love for tons of characters in comics, double page spreads, & covers.
Thanks for all the adventures, George! pic.twitter.com/mHWztTMnga

A titan!

George Perez, one of the GOATs of our craft, rest in peace and power. It’s gratifying, at least, that he got to hear how all of us felt about him while he was still here.

He was a Titan.

Condolences to his family, his many friends, and his many, many fans. https://t.co/BWEyyh7Mmv
