I'm having trouble enjoying Visionquest... it's so dry and British. The recent episode revealed Jocasta. A totally different origin story, but the character is based on Jim Shooter and George Perez's creation.

1994 Marvel Comics Bullpen Bulletins Jack Kirby Tribute Print Ad Poster Steranko

This 1994 Marvel Comics Bullpen Bulletins page serves as a poignant tribute to the legendary Jack Kirby following his passing. The printed page features heartfelt testimonials from industry icons including Jim Steranko, Neal Adams, George Perez, and Larry Hama, alongside a central portrait of Kirby. The lower section highlights Marvel's 'Hype Box' featuring Thor artwork and a 'Now On Sale' list of titles like Punisher 2099 #17 and X-Force #35. Measuring approximately 6.625 inches wide by 10.25 inches high, this piece captures a significant moment in comic book history. Published printed page only; not original hand-drawn artwork. Complete comic book or magazine and frame are not included SKU: AD1-24-01

George Perez: I, like most artists in the business today, owe my entire livelihood to Jack Kirby, and am happy that I manage to tell him so in his lifetime. I just hope with all my heart that, while none of us can ever replace him, we can at least make him proud.

Logo Study: WONDER WOMAN Part 4

Logo Study: WONDER WOMAN Part 4

This entry was posted in Logo Studies on January 21, 2008. 

The DC series CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS in 1985-86 brought an end to the previous Wonder Woman continuity, making way for a fresh start. This came from writer Greg Potter and plotter/artist George Perez, who took charge of the revamp, bringing in lots of research on Greek mythology. Potter soon dropped out, and Perez charted Wonder Woman’s course for over 60 issues in a fan-favorite run, the first of which is shown above.

The new logo for this series was designed by letterer Ken Bruzenak from an idea probably by DC art director Richard Bruning. The logo still needed to incorporate the relatively new Wonder Woman emblem of stacked W’s, and a row of six stars, another feature of her costume ran in a wide open bar to either side of that. Below, another smaller bar was added. The letter forms were sans-serif block composed only of straight and circular elements, similar to the font called AvantGarde, and probably many others. Following a similar plan to past logos, the W’s were larger, but here for the first time the letters were on one line and overlapped, which helped conserve space. With such classic forms that didn’t create any problems with readability. The overall arc of the logo and it’s depth took up quite a lot of space on the cover, and while it’s not the case here, it would be bound to overlap detailed artwork by Perez in many cases, so a thin outer shape around everything made a color-break between the logo and the art.

Ken Bruzenak doesn’t have much good to say about this design. He feels it’s too busy, with elements that serve no purpose and uninteresting letterforms. I see his point, but I don’t think it’s all that bad. For one thing, the name is clear and easy to read, and if the lower elements get covered by art, it doesn’t matter. For another, the level of detail is a good match for George Perez’ detailed artwork. I think a simpler, bolder logo might have overpowered the art. Certainly there were times when getting this very tall logo onto the cover must have been a problem, and on a few issues they just gave up and used type instead, as here (Wonder Woman #45)

This item will be released on October 30, 2026.

Donna Troy’s backstory has been an ever-evolving one, nearly from the time of her creation. Originally conceived as Wonder Girl™, Donna was meant to be a teenage version of Wonder Woman™ as a founding member of the newly formed Teen Titans™. She became one of the team’s mainstays, taking the independent name Donna Troy, and appearing only once in a Wonder Woman story during the Bronze Age. Continuity was altered in the 1980s to recreate Donna as a girl chosen for training by the Titans of Myth, during which she adopted the name Troia™. In the 1990s, Donna was reestablished once more, but this time as a magical doppelganger of Wonder Woman brought to life, while Diana was out of action for a while. 

What Was Up With ‘Wizard,’ #13: August 1999

Oct 13, 2026 | 11:55:53 PM | Ilke Hincer

In the letters, the first person wants to know what exactly an inker does. Sounds like someone had just watched Chasing Amy! Wizard turns to their favorite inker, Jimmy Palmiotti, who talks briefly about enhancing things, putting some things more in the foreground and others more in the background, but he does admit that penciling is a lot harder. I’ll have more about Palmiotti below! The second letter is about … inking? What the heck, letter-writers? This dude wants to know about reference books about inking, and Wizard notes that Steve Rude collaborated on a recent inking book and there’s always How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way, which was still in print at the time (I don’t know if it still is, lo these many years later). Good for Wizard, giving out good advice like that! 

Another dude wonders what happened to Crimson Plague, and when Wizard asked George Pérez about it., he said it would be relaunched in the summer of 2000. Only one more issue came out, however, and Pérez never got to finish it due to many other things happening in his life and the industry. So sad!
