Re: Crossovers

Archie meets the Bloodshot?

Elfquest is a comic within Valiant as well, so no Elfquest crossovers.

Re: Sliders Comics

Used to be a rock and roll singer switching to country was an attempt to boost a sagging career. Just as Hootie (or maybe he was the Blowfish? I am not totally sure how that worked) or Tiffany. I would imagine Beyonce would have a good while to go before her career got to that point even out of just...

Definitely fan art. Was there a story behind it? I don't remember
He more or less made comics out of pictures. There were stories and dialogue and many of the photos were sequential.

Re: Fan Fic: The VALIANT Fan Fic Association

There is another BloodofHeroes here who is not Anthony. I don't recall Anthony's handle here, but I don't think he's posted here in a looong time. It likely would be wishful thinking, unfortunately. I think that one's him, I could be wrong though. If I had the money and time I'd put it together mys...

...creators like Layton, Hall, etc. should be given the chance to wrap up the stories of the VH 1 iterations of X-O Manowar and Shadowman (as detailed in Rai #0) in either mini-series form (like Q2) or graphic novels. The true death of Shadowman need not be a massive line-wide crossover. It can be ...

Disagree. It seems most of the ideas are aimed at himself, and a small subsection of Valiant fans. mainly male, and over 45. I personally don't think there's a large enough market for his ideas to be profitable. Keep in mind, the people that post here, reddit, and Facebook are basically the same 25...

This thread is not claiming that VH1 does not matter. This thread claims that VH1 cannot be revived in print. You can never enter the same stream twice.

I am proud of you, MotA. Saying out loud that VH1 can never come back is the first step in recovery. The fact that new VEI comics are coming out and instead of talking about them people have to make threads about how much VH1 doesn't matter, just proves the point of how much VH1 DOES still matter. ...

Re: See-Through Chromium Errors

Those are super fun to collect. It's interesting to see all the varying levels of missing chromium on those covers.
