    I loved... LOVED that he re-imagined 50 Avengers characters as fantasy heroes. This is the kind of arc that cements him as a Hall of Famer in the world of comics.

    Thanks! After it was announced that Mr. Perez had retired, I was hoping someone would devote a contest to him as a tribute to one of the greatest artists the industry had ever known. It was just my good fortune to have been given the opportunity to take the ball and run with it.

    I wasn't a big DC reader at the time, so I never got into the Teen Titans, my first taste of Mr. Perez's great art was in the pages of The Avengers.

    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    Tough choice for me as I am a big fan, but I'm going with this one.
