One of the greats gets a Wonder-ful spotlight…

Just as the late Neal Adams is getting special tribute issues of Back Issue and Alter Ego this year, George Perez, who also died in 2022, will be honored in the 20th anniversary issue of BI come fall.

Dig the official description from publisher TwoMorrows:

Great Hera, it’s the 20th Anniversary of Back Issue in #147, featuring a tribute to the late, great George Pérez! Wonder Woman: The George Pérez Years, Pérez’s 20 Greatest Hits of the Bronze Age, Pérez’s fanzine days, a Pérez remembrance by Marv Wolfman, a Wonder Woman interview with Mindy Newell, and more! With a stunning Wonder Woman cover by Pérez! Edited by Michael Eury.

A few thoughts:

— This is the perfect companion to Back Issue #122, which was devoted to The New Teen Titans. It’s still available through TwoMorrows. (Click here.)

— I spoke to Perez about Wonder Woman a few years back. He had some fascinating things to say. Click here.

— The issue lists for $10.95 and is due for a September 2023 release. It will be available at comics shops and magazine sellers but you can already pre-order it from TwoMorrows. (Click here.)
