That Troia look might be why she was AWOL for the early 90's!

My CBS guy says "Games" has been cancelled by DC without explanation. Easy money is on Perez not being done in time. You'da thunk DC wouldn't solicit it until it was in the can, eh?
Dunno if it will be re-solicited at some point or if it's officially dead...again.
(I was seriously considering buying it! )

Surely it can't be cancelled again?!? They just had a major promotion/interview blitz announcing it didn't they? And wouldn't Bleeding Cool or someone be all over it if it were really gone.
When was it originally (not 'originally' originally Who can remember that far back?) supposed to come out? Maybe it's just been pushed back a bit.

I'm just repeating what my CBS guy said Diamond communicated to retailers. Maybe it's a temporary cancelling (a.k.a. resoliciting to come). He said the extent of the message was that orders were cancelled. Nothing else.

From The George Perez Fan Page on Facebook...
"As many of you have already learned, The TEEN TTANS: GAMES graphic novel has been taken off the November release schedule and will be re-solicited. The fault is entirely mine. I'm afraid that a confluence of events, including my worsening e...yesight which prompted the ongoing surgical procedures that I've already covered here and the bad timing of committing to LEGACIES before I knew that GAMES' deadlines had been compromised. With LEGACIES being an ongoing series, as opposed to GAMES being a one-shot, it was determined that the monthly series had to be prioritized since my involvement with that series had already been publicized. Due to some attendant light sensitivity issues, my ability to stare at a white sheet lit by studio lamps was definitely getting a bit difficult, which is one of the reasons I switched to inking Jerry Ordway for Issue 6. Oddly enough, looking at pages already grayed by pencils was easier on my orbs than starting with a clean white page. In all likelihood, I will still have several surgeries to get through and, according to my doctor, the prognosis is good. I will be returning to GAMES after I finish LEGACIES and will progress as best as I can in between surgical procedures. After I finish that long, long, long delayed book, I will request to be used primarily as an inker for the following year (with the exception of some covers or pin-ups here and there) until my eyesight is normal (or at least stabilized). After that, I intend to kick some serious comic art butt! I sincerely apologize to all of you who are now disappointed, yet again with the continuous delays on this decades-old project. I particularly want to apologize to my friend and TITANS cohort Marv Wolfman who's shown the patience of a saint throughout all this, even during times when I was too overwhelmed to return his calls. I have about 25 pages left to draw and I'm hoping that, when the book is finally re-solicited (and it will be!) that it will be at least a tiny bit worth the long wait.
Thanks for your patience and understanding."

I will eventually buy this. Probably not when it comes out, but after a while when money is finally stable. Of course, the way it's going...I may be able to buy it when it comes out.
