INCREDIBLE HULK: FUTURE IMPERFECT #1 (of 2)(1992)

Marvel Comics

Excerpt: I told George [Perez] what I needed and he built on it. For instance, when I did the two page establishing shot of Rick's trophy room, I said, "It includes the following objects: Cap's shield, Thor's hammer, Wolverine's skeleton, and the Silver Surfer's board. Other than that, put in whatever you want." And George just went to town. It included everything from the cloak of levitation still floating to Archie Andrews' Riverdale sweater. That's the great thing working with George. Tell him what you want and he'll go above and beyond.

INCREDIBLE HULK: FUTURE IMPERFECT #1 (of 2)(1992)

Marvel Comics

After more than four decades in the comic book business, George Perez, announced his retirement over the weekend. Over the course of his career as one of the industry's most accomplished artists, Perez worked for both DC and Marvel, helping to create some of the most popular maxi-events for both companies including Infinity Gauntlet with Jim Starlin and Crisis on Infinite Earths with Marv Wolfman.

A consummate professional according to his peers, Perez provided art and inks for dozens of creators, setting the mood, providing clean lines and always moving the story forward. Perez may be known best for his attention to detail and love for massive group shots. Just look at the cover to Crisis on Infinite Earths #1 or Who's Who and you can get a sense of the scale Perez worked in. Flip to any page of Tales of the New Teen Titans or Avengers he worked on and you see that, even down to the backgrounds, Perez took great care in providing as much detail as possible, engrossing and inviting readers into new worlds.

The Hulk's Top Ten Battles

#3 Hulk vs. Hulk, er, Maestro (Hulk: Future Imperfect #1 and 2):

Whenthe Hulk met Maestro, the smashing was very great. You see, Maestro isthe Hulk of a future where he's gone bad and lain waste to all of theother super-powered beings and installed himself as ruler. Though theywould later come into conflict in a plot that involved the Destroyer,the first throw-down is the best of most significant (thanks in nosmall part to the creative team of Peter David and George Perez).

Hi guys..

In honor of the 10 year anniversary ofwhat I always consider the greatest Hulk story ever told and my firstproject coloring my good pal George's work. I have now re-colored "nowwith the computer with all the bells and whistles" my favorite page ofthe series.

Would this be cool if Marvel would let me re-color the whole mini series this way?I can dream about it , although it will never happen.

Best..

INCREDIBLE HULK: FUTURE IMPERFECT TP (1992)

Marvel Comics

MW: What do you consider your most successful works, and why?

PD: Comics? Well, artistically successful, I’d put The Atlantis Chronicles up there. And Future Imperfect with George Perez, and The Last Titan with Dale Keown, which was the last Hulk story. Supergirl 1-50,I was very pleased with artistically. I really wanted to reach withthat series, to do something probing theology and faith and religionand the power of purity of the heart. Unfortunately too many readersjust shrugged it off, but the people who really opened themselves up toit seemed to “get” it and embrace it. Financially? Beyond question, Spider-Man 2099 #1. The only book I’ve written to sell over a million copies.

...

MW: When you are in charge and otherwriters write your characters (novelizations, tv shows, comics), whatare you looking for as the editor as well as the creator?
PD: I had to do that a good deal when Bill Mumy and I were doing Space Casesfor Nickelodeon. In that case, you find yourself doing something that’sequally creative and damage control. You have to deal with writers whoare trying to grasp not only character nuances, but the realities ofthe world you’ve created. So in that case, when a writer submitted ascript that had our ship, the Christa, shooting at someone, we had tocompletely rework the story because the ship is established as nothaving weapons.

MW: How do you define your relationship up front with your editor / story-editor / producer / the writers who work under you?
PD: That it’s my job to make them, and the show, look as good as possible. During Space Cases there were scripts that required my doing such massive rewrites that technically I could have put my name on them. I never did.
