Re: Question VH1 Eternal Warrior Collecting

I personally prefer the flat gold version, and love finding it in the wild. I finally added that one to my collection just recently. Got a CGC 9.6. That's awesome! It's tough to get it in the higher grade. :clap: It's one of the few VH1 books I didn't own yet, and one popped up on eBay recently. Pa...

Re: Bloodshot 9 Discussion

The real test is whether or not you keep succumbing to it. I have compared my continued buying of Valiant to the lady with black eyes on the tv show Cops bawling over her abusive boyfriend, “But I love him!” Yep, I keep coming back. Valiant has changed. This time is going to be different. And other...

Re: Bloodshot 9 Discussion

Wiggins as in the techie from the movie? Exactly. There's a bit at the end of the book where Bloodshot gets a transmission form someone (I would assume Wiggans) informing Bloodshot that PRS is still active. The blurb for the next issue suggests that Wiggans will appear (which is why I assume the tr...

Re: recommendations for giving away post-Unity issues?

You might be able to sell some if you price them cheap ($1 a book would be worth more than the .65 tax credit) and put a list on the Facebook Valiant Buy/Sell page.

Re: Bloodshot 9 Discussion

I finally caught up with Bloodshot, after being at least a few arcs behind for quite a while. Mostly because I heard there was something of importance in this issue. Thoughts on the teaser at the end of the issue?

Re: Latest announcement from DMG about not having an office

Moving to new offices which are under construction. Just sounds off. Hope it works out for them. The 'under construction' line sounds typical. My company had the lease on our most recent office for a month or two before moving from our old office. It was basically a shell and the owner wanted to bu...

Re: Valiant NY Offices are Permanatly Closed

I mentioned this over on the Facebook group, but I don't think this is necessary as big a deal as people seem to think. My studio started work from home in March. The owner broke the lease in June, as we're going to be continuing to work from home for the foreseeable future, office rent in Manhattan...

Re: DBS's 100% CONFIRMED "Rare" Print Run Info

The largest publisher in the industry dumps substantial numbers of leftover variants completely flooding the market and making fools of their fans that paid up for the books when they first came out. I wonder how many people paying hundreds (or thousands) of dollars for the Ultimate Fallout #4 1:25...

Re: Valiant appoints a THIRD senior editor!!

He’s been in the industry 35 years so at least he’s paid his dues. He can’t do any worse than the last 2 years and if he waters...

First appearance, naturally, but also the Batman/Predator crossover has seen some really good results recently. Th...

You clearly don't know what fascism is. And if you haven't been paying attention, what's going on in the U.S., Portland especially, is a slide into an authoritarian regime, so I wouldn't be so sure that it can't happen in a western country any time soon. Authoritarian??! That’s hilarious, those US ...

I love some of Jim Mahfood's covers. I bought the original art for his Q&W cover.
