WRITER: Patrick L Hamilton | ARTIST: George Perez
Born in the South Bronx to Puerto Rican parents, artist and writer George P rez (1954-2022) cut his teeth in the 1970s as an artist at Marvel who worked on lesser titles like The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu and Creatures on the Loose, and then mainstays like Fantastic Four and The Avengers. In the 1980s, P rez jumped ship to DC where he helped turn The New Teen Titans into a top-selling title and co-created Crisis on Infinite Earths, which marked the publisher's fiftieth anniversary and consolidated its sprawling universe. As writer and artist, P rez relaunched DC's Wonder Woman, a run that later inspired much of the 2017 film. Though P rez's style is highly recognizable, his contributions to comic art and history have not been fully acknowledged. In George P rez, author Patrick L. Hamilton addresses this neglect, first, by discussing P rez's artistic style within the context of Bronze Age superhero art, and second, by analyzing P rez's work for its representations of race, disability, and gender. Though he struggled with deadlines and health issues in the 1990s, P rez would reintroduce himself and his work to a new generation of comics fans with a return to Marvel's The Avengers, as well as attempts at various creator-owned comics, the last of these being Sirens from Boom! Studios in 2014. Throughout his career, P rez established a dynamic and minutely detailed style of comic art that was both unique and influential.
