Discover the three most problematic projects in which George Pérez It was involved.
George Pérez He was known for being an American writer and cartoonist who, due to his clear, dynamic and detailed style, specializes in the realization of action scenes with superheroes, therefore it is not surprising that, together with John Byrnebe considered one of the most popular and influential artists who brought us the eighties.
Of course, this does not mean this George Pérez Keep a good memory of all the projects he came to participate. In fact, if you continue to read this article until the end you can attend the accidents that occurred in three products in what has collaborated, which, despite their quality, were not among their favorites for the reasons we explained below.
The infinite glory
Although some may consider that adventure Infinity Gauntletwith script of Jim StarlinIt is the Macrosaga of The house of ideas more exceptional of all time (as highlighted by what has been freely adapted by Marvel StudiosBetween 2018 and 2019, in films Avengers: Infinity War y Avengers: endgame), it is very likely that George Pérez He had something to say about it, since the memory he kept from his stage as a cartoonist of that saga was nothing pleasant. In fact, the narrow delivery dates allowed him only to illustrate the first three numbers and part of the room, which came since Ron Colla He took over.
Keep in mind that one of the main problems was that, at that time, George Pérez He had already engaged in another saga, in this case for A.DSo it is not strange that having to combine both stories has become an overwhelming task, especially considering that, from its point of view, the idea of Jim Starlin He was more extensive than he should, in addition to what he didn’t like the plan that was not the final adventure of ThanksAs he assumed it would be.
The war of the gods
Precisely, it is War of the gods the miniseries that George Pérez made for A.D while taking care of the other saga WonderExcept that, on this occasion, he made all the decisions, since he faced both the script and the drawings, although in this second task, was initially helped by Cynthia martín. And that the original idea was that George Pérez He would just take care of the sketches of the characters.
To finish complicating things, Karen BergerThe editorial responsible for the miniseries of A.DHe had to cancel the registration because he was about to give birth, then George Pérez it had to be understood with Tom PeyerA substitute with which he did not comply and with his predecessor. For this reason, the creator of the intervention remembered the comics of this saga as cursed.
Magician nº 100
We cannot finish this article without talking about the most curious case of all. The magazine WizardSpecialized in comics (which remained in force between 1991 and 2011), he took particular care in offering the most attractive covers, so that, for their number 100 (Published in 2000), it occurred to someone who would be a good idea to capture no less than that number of characters, of several publishers, on a drop -down cover. As you can imagine, the artist chose to focus on the project was nothing more than George Pérezwho also dealt with entering Star fire, Wonder Woman, The beast y The witch scarlet.
For its part Todd McFarlane He took care of Spiderman y Spawn; J. Scott Campbell He was responsible for Batman, Danger Girl and members of Genuation (FAICHILD, Grunge, Roxie; Burnout y Rainmaker); Brent Anderson contributed to The hanged y Jack Surprise Box; Erik Larsen collaborated when taking care Wild dragon y Thing; Jim Lee contributed to Tombs And finally, Alex Ross A Superman.
However, there were still eighty characters to enter, so there was no other choice that accepting the fact that coordinating other authors to finish the task would have been a practically impossible mission, so that it was a practically impossible mission Wizard I have no another option than to throwing the towel, since, the image you can see in this section is all that has been achieved.
It is worth asking how it was taken George Pérez The fact of having concentrated so many characters. Of course, although it is unlikely to happen, if ever, the project has been taken up, it would be one of the best tributes that could be made to an artist in his category.
