ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

Ironman/X-O pops up all over ebay sometimes for a penny. God as a matter of fact I think I remember seeing one in the bagain bin of a local Gamestop (Saturn Version).... Why is the Saturn a better version. I've heard that the Saturn has a better 2d drive engine it it, but this game uses 3-d modeling...

That's very well done, man.

I've been lobbying hard for Priest on Ironman. The guy is cool as hell and he's a great writer. read Enemy of The State II in black panther for a great IRONMAN story, believe it or not

There are unique choices being made for Marvel charactes these days, but more than unique, they are downright bad choices. Marvel is trying, but they are trying blindfolded by people who are pretending they have marketing and business degrees or something. And IF they have the degree, then they are ...

I liked Rai 0 without any enahncements. To me, at the time it was quietly released. I remember picking it up off the shelves at the store, and later on when it got hot, I remember thinking "cool". To me that book is a very, very key Valiant that was totally symbolic of Valiant because it w...

I'd have to keep the Ironman/XO crossover. This is only because I'm an Ironman collector first, and would HAVE to have it there. I'd have a hard time keeping any Valiants if I started selling, it'd have to be all or nothing by virtue of the fact that IMO a Valiant collection really hinges on having ...

You know thats funny, because I get caught in the same well of buying dup's at bargain prices....

It's like OCD, we are obsessing over a purchase and create the compulsion to repeatedly buy the same book over and over and over.

If we dont' something will happen..... something bad. No... really....

I have detailed records kept on a pretty good Excel spreadsheet I've written that track down to the penny, all the money I've spent on Valiant stuff since day one. I also do this (in greater detail actually) for my Ironman collection. Anyone else do this?

http://www.superverse.com/ Go there and read COED DORM, you'll laugh your *SQUEE* off. The rest of the stuff looks pretty good and Zoom Suit is great. This is a very encompassing website, actually for one that's not fan made!! I'm definately buying Zoom Suit when it comes out. You can download the Z...

If I remember correctly, I stopped buying Valiant right around the time that they did the first card promotion with the cards inserted into the comics. Actually, I think I stopped a few months before that, but the card thing nearly rekindled my interest, made me look, and then I decided against it. ...

I recently got some promotional material from these guys and let me tell you, whoa, this is some cool stuff.... I hope all of you have seen the DVD animated short which kind of defines the comic... it's just awesome, total liquid television stuff here! It's amazing that this board isn't totally abuz...

Graham Crackers comics, the chain here in IL which I'm sure most of you have heard of, has actually phased out there .25 bargain bin. I remember being in the store and hearing Jamie Graham himself say vebatum "yeah comics are just becoming to expensive to be putting in a quarter bin..." Pa...

Hi all, It's been a while since I posted on these great boards (Advanced Iron and other Ironman stuff as well as work and school has been overwhelmingly busy). I figured this is one of the first and best place to talk about whats going on with John Taddeo's Zoom Suit Project. In the recent weeks I'v...

I mean this half heartedly as a joke and seriously at the same time: Try the message boards, man! Most everyone here knows what there talking about. You've got dealers AND collectors who were there at the time! We ARE inadvertantly the experts as to that market because we lived it, created it AND de...

If anyone is interested, head on over to http://www.advancediron.com/AIzine.php and download the newest Advanced Iron, the worlds best Ironman magazine!! There is a great A.I. interview with Bob Layton and John Taddeo in it about all things new, and if that's not your cup of tea, then check out my a...

I am 27 immature years old.

Well see, Valiant was already bought out with suckage results.. it was called Acclaim, and that collectors market is still going ..... well cult strong at least!

And don't misinterpret me here, I'm buying a lot of Acclaim stuff, but I'm also being realistic too..

I have two of the same Ninjak prints that you have in that image. It's the same as the X-O print but for some reason it's not on Gregs site. The came with COAs and were also signed by Joey Da Q. One will eventually be for sale with some of my other stuff I'll be putting on ebay pretty soon. It looks...

Wow, I'm one of those mad completists too, buying Windjammer and the other imprints.

Is that marvel thing true? God I never would have thought that.....

Oh well, I'll buy em anyway when I find em cheap (or expensive if I really need that LAST issue or whatnot)

I'm Toastyj!! How'd you know you auction spy?!
Well keep an eye open for my stuff because pretty soon I'm gonna auction off some of my double and triples....

You guys think you've got it bad?
I've got to find TWO of those Ironman X-O "variants", one for my Valiant collection and one for my extreme Ironman collection....

-ugh-
This is when collecting becomes.........
lets just say ambitious.

Got it. Yeah I knew what the book is, I guess I should've been able to put the acronym together.

Whats a CEAR?

Well if someone is willing to host images for me on this thread, PM me and I'll send you scans of the COAs and the books I have that I've mentioned earlier here so everyone can check them out...
