Elfquest existed too. Everything but Magnus and Turok comics? How convenient lol Maybe when Solar changed the Universe he took them out deliberately, pretty far fetched but :? :? :? Definitely is stretching it a bit into far fetched land, but I guess the argument could be made when Phil destroyed h...

Why don't you *SQUEE* off and remove yourself from this forum. Theres nothing constructive about anything you write. To be fair, if we demanded that users have at least 20% worthwhile posts, then this place would be even more dead than it is already. Lol https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240119/f3...

Re: Neutral Ground

Greg, it occurred to me that, if they're up for it, it might be cool to have a sub-forum where people from Alien Books/VALIANT like Danielle Ward and Martin Alien could promote their upcoming projects, and, maybe, answer questions from readers that can be a neutral ground where we can just talk abo...

I may hit up my LCS (which I've only gone to for bags/boards since moving here) to check out the Ninjak if they have it. I do like me some Mike Norton.

Re: Clarke's Third Law - what does it say?

I've always interpreted it to be magic and advanced technology are essentially the same thing.

I always like to give my own semi-reciprocal restatement, actually:

"Any magic, sufficiently understood is science."

Re: Serious question...what did Heather Antos actually *do*?

In the '90s, VALIANT managed to do inclusion and diversity considerably better than most comic books, TV shows, and movies do today. Actually, 90s scifi/geek culture did diversity and inclusion much better than most things now. Think of all the female led action movies that weren't just vehicles fo...

Re: What comics are you reading now?

Anybody read the Dark Horse Creepy revival and archives of old Creepy Comics? There is a pretty good deal on Humble Bundle, and I'm thinking of getting it?

This seems like something grendeljd would have interest in.

Re: Licensed Comics

One thing that really bugged me about the last season of Earth: Final Conflict (out of the many things that went wrong with it) was that they brought back the actor that played the real Liam Kincaid, but they never acknowledged it on screen. That is REALLY obscure. It took a little while for it to ...
