George Perez started drawing at the age of five and hasn't stopped
since. Born on June 9, 1954, Perez began his professional comics
career as an assistant to Rich Buckler in 1973. After establishing
himself as a penciller at Marvel Comics, Perez came to DC in 1980,
bringing his highly detailed art style to such titles as Justice
League of America and Firestorm. After co-creating The New Teen
Titans in 1980, Perez and writer Marv Wolfman reunited for the
landmark miniseries Crisis On Infinite Earths in 1985. In the
aftermath of that universe-smashing event, Perez revitalized Wonder
Woman as the series' writer and artist, reestablishing her as one
of DC's preeminent characters and bringing in some of the best
sales the title has ever experienced. He has since gone on to
illustrate celebrated runs on Marvel'sThe Avengers, CrossGen's
Solus, and DC's The Brave and the Bold.
