I mean, I can't say I'm surprised by this. Dude's a recognized Memetic Badass. It was gonna be either Putin or some kind of robo-Stalin.

Voted indifferent. The poll is a tad rigged, as it implies that comedy stories are inherently bad, and I fundamentally disagree. If the comedy's good, then I'm fine with it. It's not meant to be rigged. I guess fundamentally it's about non continuity comedy stories and whether you prefer that over ...

What was that about Vietnam?

Hello again, yes I admit I moved the goalpost, after pressure, but my original intuition was 50, and I was totally joking with jmatt..he owes me nothing, and never did..in fact this whole thread was supposed to be humorous and motivating... I just can't hang with trollers sorry... But think about i...

No inter connected universe?? Ninjak is in XO now. Shadowman was in Ninjak last month. The Vine were just in Imperium. Hard Corps are in Imperium now. Torque and @x are both in the Faith mini. Eternal Warrior was in the last issue of Rai. We had Unity up until recently with lots of character cross ...

Good Christ aren't you just toxic. On the XO bit, you initially rang the death knell at #50, but the moment you got challenged you pushed back to #75. That's what's called "moving the goalposts". You don't get to backpedal once you've done that. Now that said....I actually don't disagree ...

Huh. I'm actually really into this stage of Valiant.to each his own I guess. Though honestly, if all the fans buy all the books forever, we'll probably never have more of them a month than we do now. Because they'll all sell roughly the same for ages and ages. A more selective fanbase would create ...

In all the stories I've read that have involved a collective consciousness, I don't think I've ever seen one so stupidly abusable. I guess that's what happens when you're not plugged in 24/7. Also I just noticed: the Vine plantings have Liefeld guns! PEW PEW MOFOS! :lol: So overall I'm loving this a...

You sound like a mini Donald Trump. Not in a good way... This sounds more to me like a less eloquent Sean Malstrom. Also not in a good way. Wait, if VEI is flying people in to New York to hear their awesome ideas count me in. I'll do it for half the price :D I live within an hour's drive away from ...

I've still been enjoying Valiant's output, but I totally get the point about the "worlds" feeling more disparate. Rai's deliberately cut off, what with being set 2000 years in the future, and Q&W, Shadowman, and Dr. Mirage have always felt like they were in their own little worlds, but...

So I'm once again catching up after spending a couple months off Valiant, and I find that it's this series that's giving me the most to think about. Mainly because of how it concerns our good ol' friend Jack Boniface. When the End Times mini had ended, I had called it a textbook case of character as...

The radio silence has been concerning me as well. I'm hoping the movie idea didn't get canned or thrown in development limbo. There's silence because they need to wait for John Wick to finish filming before there will be any news about Bloodshot. They don't want to tire the audience with over promo...

This reminds me of the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter campaign that came right off the heels of E3, where the money goal was less to actually make the project and more to prove to investors that there was interest and thus a market. However, there are two major differences between this and that. First, that ...

Sony really wants to jump on that "Cinematic Universe" bandwagon. If you recall, Sony had a whole bunch of spin-offs planned for Spider-Man, but they had to cancel those when ASM 2 completely bombshelled. Sure, Sony still has access to Spidey through their deal with Marvel, but they're now...

I don't see what one has to do with the other. There are tons of sci-fi action movies. The success of one tends to lead to more, not less. I'm guessing the idea is that Bloodshot does so well as a faux-Terminator that it makes any future Terminator moot, and thus everyone will bank on the former in...

Bottom line, it doesn't matter what age bracket they target, the real problem is Batman has had a 40 yr PR blitz by third party companies. Whether its cartoon, toys, clothes, bed sheets or even candy. Valiant simply doesn't have a clue or the amount of financial backing to thrust any of their IPs b...

I mentioned before that I was nervous about Asmus taking over for this arc, considering all his work in Q&W and how utterly insane it was. So I'm glad to say that he's exceeded my expectations. He kept himself in his proper box really well, he captured all the characters near-perfectly, and over...

I'm going to start off by saying that marketing Valiant to kids is going to be a lot trickier than it is for Marvel and DC, because it's a lot easier for the likes of the Avengers and the Justice League to be made kid-friendly as opposed to, say, Bloodshot and Harbinger. Not that it can't be done, ...

As to those opinions- specifically that it's all "kissing and romance and princesses and unicorns"- I'd say that the main character being deeply in love with and relying on her husband is part of the core of what " Doctor Mirage" is all about. The original was aboutghosts and ro...
