Re: How is Valiant going to repair Jack?

I think by breaking Jack down and providing this now torturous past -- (ironically) they have begun the steps to repairing the character. I think they should eventually re-introduce him as seemingly normal. He has learned to suppress the Loa so deep inside him that he feels it is mostly gone ... bu...

Re: Harbinger Wars... 2?

I think we've officially moved past the GK3 ever coming back. Divinity is our Solar, Savage is our Turok and Bloodshot(?) is our future Robot Fighter. I'd say that Rai has more or less usurped the role of Magnus stand-in, even if he isn't specifically dedicated to fist-punching robots. But yeah, th...

Re: Ninjak Trailer!

Finally got a chance to watch it. Some notes along the way: The Valiant Digital logo sequence is really beautiful. Crisp, clean, and simple, perfectly contrasting to the nostalgia-laden logos Marvel and DC have gone for nowadays. I also liked the music. Very 90s arcadey, felt appropriate. With Valia...

Re: Valiant CEO teases “mind blowing” directors for X-O Mano

Wampa's got a good point, at least regarding the timeline. Even if the Russos are tied to another Avengers sequel (formerly Infinity War Part 2) they'll be done by 2019. Meanwhile, even if Valiant manages to work out two movies a year so suddenly they still won't be through Harbinger Wars until at l...

Re: The Return of Shadowman

See, I attribute the lack of consistency there more to Milligan himself than anything else. I look at that, at Eternal Warrior: Days of Steel (a completely self-contained mini that has the Geomancer talk to Gilad through a bird ), and at Britannia, and I get the impression that Milligan doesn't like...

Is anyone else excited for the new Shadowman book next year? I figure he's been running around the Deadside for years kicking *SQUEE*, so he should now be a total badass. Also he's gotta be *SQUEE* at Master Darque. I'd love to see a book where he returns to the Deadside and hunts Darque for some p...

Re: 4001 AD: War Mother Discussion

I'm genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this one. I'm totally digging War Mother as a character, and would love to see her get more involved with Rai and whatever he's got going now.

If I had to rank the tie-ins, it'd be the following:

Bloodshot
War Mother
X-O Manowar
Shadowman

It's pretty much been guaranteed for some time now that a 2017 Bloodshot movie wasn't happening. Even if production somehow went completely underground (which in this day and age is effectively impossible) we would've had at least a trailer by now. And hey, if they need more time to really make the ...

Re: So Which Was Better?

I'll note that I've only really read VH1, so my votes are based on that. X-O Manowar: VEI. Love Venditti's direction with him. Bloodshot: VH1. VEI's been way too inconsistent. Reborn's been better but I'm not a fan of how Lemire's been writing him. His character seemed perfectly fine how it was in A...

Re: On average which V series take the longest to read?

I'm going to not only second Dr. Mirage, but jump the gun and assume Dr. Mirage is the case for most people as well. And I chalk that up to Van Meter's writing style: you have to pay attention to the exposition to keep track of what's going on, and single panels can get very wordy. For me, Divinity,...
