ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

Yeah, we're going to just have to agree to the disagreement. Other than the months when Unity #1 and Book of Death #1 shipped, overall sales were fairly static from 2013-2016. Then it was just a roller coaster of new #1s buoying overall sales for 2017 but still a very noticeable decline. Look at any...

Why would they, this sites only the place where hardcore Valiant fans have kept the interest in the books going all these years. My point being, the hardcores can't keep the brand alive. There isn't enough revenue from such a small group. That's proven itself over how many iterations of Valiant now...

They don't. Not sure why folks here think they suddenly should. Or will.

I loved the first year. The second less so. Gunduz was definitely amazing.

I thought Sacred Six was a hot mess.

I don't think folks here are reading the books. Mostly just complaining about the creators and solicits.

To be fair, the post-pencils down books have been rock bottom awful.

My review elsewhere was "straight doodoo." I knew we were in trouble visually when Jim Towe was in the credits (I assume) to get the book finished. The story is completely nonsensical. I've had this thought other times in the last three years, but I really feel like someone in editorial is...

I voted XO and Savage as taking the most damage. XO continuity with Shanhara as a buddy cop style book is cringeworthy. The Savage story picking up where it did missed a huge opportunity from where the first series left off (where Kevin arrived in the middle of London). That damage can’t be undone....

What I noted on another site when it came out...

The plot doesn't make much sense (other than the obvious reveal at the end), but at least it was readable this month.

Already at $34,949 and 290 backers. Adding up the individual tiers it's $32,925 from 385 backers, so not quite in sync. A breakdown of those numbers: The top two tiers account for 63.33% of the money. That's from just 24, or 8%, of the backers. This is why you do a KS. Throw something ridiculous out...

Not sure how much you follow Bad Idea related news but ‘Bad Idea’ as a concept has (or will shortly) finish, so they must have planned all this a lot more than they are letting on. Don’t know what’s next but Dinesh and Warren will keep delivering the goods. Yeah, I've seen the "Bad Idea is ove...

Sorry... But the plan is far too poorly conceived to be humorous to me. There's no subtlety, it's a telegraphed punch in the face, made entirely out of a stupid idea. It's not V-ditti's best work, but they priced it like it is. Stumbled over one copy at a sale at my LCBS who has never had these boo...

It’ll be interesting to see how this goes. Depending on price I might sign up. Mind you I don’t know of any successful comic book kickstarts they never seem to happen. While I never chipped in for I’m still waiting to see the Battlechasers one come to fruition. In my experience the majority of comi...

Not reading it because you don't like the hype or description pre-release is understandable.

But now that it is out, commenting on what it IS without even cracking it open is just perpetuating your own politics and has nothing to do with a published issue review thread.

The art is the art. It's what he did with Spider-Gwen. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. The story was totally fine and interesting until it got confusing. Whatever nonsense "politics" or "agendas" folks have decided would be pushed or are railimg against because their echo...

No, it doesn't really look like Peter. Which is extra funny since the best description of him is "generic white guy."

But there's no chance that's not a white guy in the left/spine side.

It's weird that they replaced Pulido on the last half of the issue even though he finished it all.

Maybe they hated the coloring of those pages as much as I do?

No costs released for the Kickstarter yet…what’s it likely to be, $25, $50, $75? With unknown creators whose willing to take a risk shelling out big bucks? The artist mentioned 100 pages on one of his socials when I was looking him up. As a Kickstarter, I'd think the $30-40 range for a print copy w...

At the risk of perpetuating this political discussion in a comic thread... That's the most genteel possible explanation of the situation that someone could possibly come up with. The guy at the SF/LA game last night or the local dairy by me who have it on their front sign certainly aren't using it &...

Eight pages in and we learn the answer to the question, "What if it was a different artist?" Answer, better to look at but still not a great book. Jeff Parker's story is just not very engaging, and I usually love his work. We also learned that "four issues and done for six months"...

No, it's once again someone here bringing politics into the middle of a comic book discussion for absolutely no reason with yet another dog whistle.
