He is not that much older than me. But back in the 80's when I was a Teen Titans addict and everyone was an X-men addict his work was sublime and in thought he was in his 40's or 50's....you know ..an old man.

Yep, in a meantime, he was in his prime time when I was in my teenage years. The years have passed by. I could imagine him that he was a hard working person in those years. My hat off to him and his happy retirement. I have only ten more years away from the retirement era. Yikes! Casablanca 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazel301 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Sad, selfishly I was really looking forward to meeting Mr. Perez and having him sign some books for me. The real question is, will he still be appearing at FetishCon in Florida which he was booked for the day after Terrificon! Hmmmmm Still, I wish him the best and hope one day he can back to the northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
