But seriously, Ed's store seems pretty damn awesome.

There's plenty of sweet pot here in FL, too. It's just not legal. :(

Re: Has Anybody Dropped the Big Two for Valiant?

Pretty much. I only ever consistently read Marvel's Ultimate titles, but over the past 7-8 years the quality level of those has dropped tremendously (Bendis' Ultimate Spider-Man is still a good read, but the rest of the current Ultimate titles are horrible). And with the Ultimate universe FINALLY en...

Re: Valiant Completionists..When Is your Collection Complete

I'm a completionist in terms of getting the entire VEI story. I read my issues digitally each week through the Comixology app, and buy the trades as they come out at my local comic shop. I also buy any individual Plus issues for the little extra story content/world building they offer. So right now ...

Re: Ivar #2 Lettered Preview

Any time travel book that features the line "Let's kill Hitler!" within (or without) the context of explaining how paradoxes are impossible is automatically pure win in my book.

Re: Valiant Timeline / Chronology (VEI)

The date was presented as:

OBLIVI-1 (this is just the location so irrelevant in terms of the date)

A.D. 10 x 10 10 56

Of course the smaller numbers are to the upper right corners of each other to indicate the exponent, but I don't think its possible to portray that in HTML/BBCode.

Re: Q&W in The Valiant? (I sure hope not)

While Q&W is at the bottom of the list for me, in terms of favorite Valiant titles, I still buy and read every issue (course I'm taking the completist approach to the VEI so...), and almost always enjoy them. As said, there's some pretty good satirical social commentary throughout, and maybe I'm...

Re: Upcoming News!

This may be my personally most anticipated Valiant release. I love the concept of time travel used in fiction (for better or for worse), and since Archer & Armstrong is my personal favorite Valiant title, knowing FVL is writing Ivar was all I needed to hear. Absolutely cannot wait to read this.

Re: Valiant Minimates

Very cool. I'm not a fan of variants, but with the news of a regular version of Bloodshot and Aric with his X-O helmet on, I'll definitely be picking up those versions. Hope they continue with these, would be awesome to have a mini Valiant character display on the shelf with all the Valiant trades/s...

Re: December 2014 Sales

Those numbers don't include digital sales, right? I think more and more people are transitioning to digital downloads. As of mid-2013 digital sales accounted for 27% of the comic market overall, and I'm sure that's only increased in the last year and a half. It's important to keep that in mind, I th...

Re: Valiant Timeline / Chronology (VEI)

Updated for Unity #0. Was able to use specific dates due to the events of the 1918 World Series between Boston and Chicago playing over the radio (specifically the mentions of events in Games 5 and 6).
