ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

I think the guys at Valiant HQ have their hands tied a bit... whatever happened, they can't really go around publicly pointing fingers in the interest of maintaining good business relations. Something like this. Elveen, can you confirm they will print more CD covers or didn't Dinesh clarify that po...

Great point, that wasn't really explained? And will the character design version hit comic shops late...they do seem to be more scarce?

Ninjets! Lead Pipes! Variansanity! OTV 86 is up now, with Harby #5 and X-O #6 discussion, plus some discussion and knowledge about variant covers. Get it: http://onlythevaliant.com/episodes/86/ Very enjoyable episode, Elveen was bang on with his assessment of Harby 5. The story was excellent but th...

I don't mind them, but it almost seems like there is a stigma attached to them that is bad. I'd rather just see them do one-shot books like the zero issues. Totally agree with this post, not sure why but there does seem to be a 'stigma' attached to annuals..it's as if they don't count in a characte...

Became acquainted with Draco via ebay yesterday, what a super friendly and very helpful fella! :thumb: So you outbid me on the rai 21 vvss :mad: :thumb: Hi there..not guilty on the Rai 21..didn't even see it I was too busy trying to win some of the variant covers for the new stuff...won some lost s...

Had a weekend off, :clap: , for my friends wedding :D :thumb: . Not only first weekend off in months. But a brilliant time had by all. Wanted to met Draco on the way down to Hampton court. But left late. Instead met him upon my return, the next day.today! Did not know Drift was going to be their :b...

In podcast 85, Sean mentioned that he feels Rai will make an appearance in the next 12 months. In the Valiant FCBD there's an ad for Rai stating spring 2013, so unless that's changed it shouldn't be too long before that character makes an appearance. Even though Sean wasn't as prepared as usual (for...

Hi there! I voted no for two reasons: :) 1) I hate capes in the Valiant Universe. It's ok for characters with history (like Batman, Superman etc) but it seemed odd when it happened in VH1 and VH2 as Valiant is more modern? 2) Q & W wouldn't fit in with the rest of the new Valiant Universe, it's...

The last page was a little shocking and a little hilarious. :D Boon + Nazis = Tibetan Hitler 'staches I kinda got that impression too, but the Swastikas looked like they were being used in their original Buddhist positions. Oh and your Boon theory about the xo being needed looks like it also got sh...

I hope to hell that's not Ax in that X-O Commando Suit, he was lamesauce. I agree! Ax started off as a weak concept for a character, got worse then was embarrassingly bad in X-O 67 (ish can't quite remember his last appearance?)! That said, the creative teams are that good I'm sure he'd be a much b...

So I lucked out today and picked up an X-O #0 gold today for TWO Bucks! Woot! Found it at Revolution Comics, and it's CLEARLY a gold - Gold logo and gold Valiant box without a price. Woot! Nice one mate, pleased for you! Wonder if that's the best (or one of the best) bargain finds anyone's had on t...

Ha ha, I'm guessing that's a reference to a budweiser advert or something!

1st) X-O
close 2nd) Harbinger
3rd) Bloodshot
4th) A&A

V-Ditti's writing along with the art of Nord and Garbett edges it for me, but the standard is incredibly high. Issue #5 was an instant classic!

Harbinger lost as few points for me when Stanchek was rapping?!

Cheers Chiclo, much appreciated!

By the way, for those following this real or fake debate, the seller (who provided the photograph) confirmed the X-O logo IS in fact silver...it was just a trick of the light (which you guys called!).

Thank you all for such a warm welcome and for all of your advice! Yes, Dallow is my twitter handle too! I've recently discovered OTV, which is great, (hi Sean!) and through those guys I've learned of this forum, which looks really interesting too! At £5, still not sure whether to buy it to try and s...

Thanks MarkRose!

Greg - Thanks for your response. the copy I'm talking about has a very clear Gold X-O Logo and the Valiant logo is pretty white. I'd post a photo but can't figure out how? Can I post a photo from an Iphone?

Hi, first time on the forum, go easy with me! Is anyone aware of a version of VH1 X-O #0 issue with a gold X-O logo but a regular Valiant white and red logo with $3.50 price? Is it real or fake? It is not the same the gold logo in the valiant price guide?
