Magnus Purist
VH 2 Magnus is a perfect example of everything that was wrong with VH 2, specially the issue with Bull Magnus, Alien Magnus, Virus Magnus, and Sister Magnus. This issue alone is a great example of how Nicieza was turning VALIANT into a lame copy of DC, as well as a perfect guide on how NOT to write...

what is this love affair you have with valiant? Thanks for the nice words. Like you said. That's love that it is. I really enjoy the Valiant stories, and how they all come together. And there's always more to discover. Plus, I love to analyse things. I'd say these kind of questions show a love for ...

Re: Visitor and Peter Stanchek
Quick question. Was the Visitor really Peter Stanchek? I cant remember what his deal was. Thanx! I was disappointed when I found out that he was Stanchek. It would have been much cooler if he really was from another planet (or dimension). Further stories could have featured his place of origin. :( ...

Gold Key Base
Valiant succeeded largely because it built on the Gold Key foundations. It seems from previous topics that Magnus (the central V/GK character) is taken and we will see more original Magnus soon (great news). How about bringing in some Gold Key that Valiant didn't buy? There is Mighty Samson, an exce...

Re: question about the valiant universe

Re: Which are your favorite Magnus time periods?
Magnus: Robot Fighter (Vh1) stood out from other comics because the focus and environment kept changing, and so did Magnus. So, adding the Gold Key and Vh2 series to the list, which were your top three favorite Magnus periods, and why? 1. Gold Key/Manning Era 2. Early Vh1 Era 3. Malev War Era 4. Te...

Re: Doctor Solar #7
My bro just came back from Vegas and he brought me a very fine copy of Doctor Solar #7 (Gold Key series). The first story deals with an underwater city (something which could have been cool at VALIANT) and the second one deals with a meteor (very standard Superman-esque plot). A very nice issue to ...

Nope, I passed. I already have it and I just can't see spending that much on a book I already have. I bought Magnus #0 here in the UK recently (my only one) for roughly the same price when converted to dollars. I was well pleased and thought that I had been undercharged. The dealer even reduced the...

Gold Key produced a number of paperback sized 'digests'. Does anybody know if there were any for Magnus, Solar or Turok?
