We didn't get George Perez for anywhere near long enough, but his impact in the comic book world will be felt for a very long time. I hope his energies are out there exploring the universe.

There is a news story out today that photos taken of George touring the Warner Brothers Studio Museum in his final days will be hung in the National Portrait Gallery, in recognition of his contributions to pop culture.

I dunno, it's wild to me that I could afford to buy George Perez's house, all for the low low price of totally upending my life and having to live in Florida.

George was married to Carol. Funny, my first thought was it was a small house! (When I moved here from Fairfield I went from 7000 square feet to 5000. A friend said she thought I would get a smaller house. I said I thought I did!)

I'm admittedly biased as a Northeast bungalow kinda guy. My wife and I live in a 2800ish square foot arts & crafts house and constantly covet the small Cape Cod homes around town.
