Editorial mistake. Her real name is Ann Angeline Alcott Alafair. Seriously.

Oh, and someone on here seems to be right, Alcott is a fake name for MI6 Agents.

I'm calling dibs since I mentioned in on OTV

Brapbrap wrote:I would go as far as to say that this is the best art VEI has ever published. Every page in the main story looked incredible. By far the best Ninjak issue to date.

I know art is subjective, but I'm having a REALLY hard time taking a single word of this seriously.

So like... End Times bad? Worse? I haven't read it yet.

Actually impressed with this one, Kindt has been driving me Bonkers but this arc is damn fine indeed. My ONLY question is WHEN THE HELL DID LIVEWIRE HAVE TIME FOR THIS 'CHRIS' DUDE? I don't remember her being very old in Harbinger, and she was with Stronghold for some amount of time. Given the natur...

Brapbrap wrote:What a weird issue, Livewire's new suit was interesting and I like how it looks like the X-O Armor but was the implication that she has sex with it??

Love it

I must say I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this issue. I can't imagine a more perfect introduction to Valiant for new, potential fans than this. This is FINALLY the tortured aspect of Bloodshot I was hoping for many months ago. Just hoping the few notes of Punisher I tasted won't be enough for the book to be d...

There is an article about Bloodsquirt on Bleeding Cool: http://www.bleedingcool.com/2015/04/15/spoilers-jeff-lemire-has-hidden-something-big-inside-bloodshot-reborn/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I think it wasn't exactly a secret that there would be Lemire art in the iss...

I play NES roms on a Mac Mini with a wireless PS3 controller on an 80" TV... maybe he's just awesome

Jmatt, don't feel self-conscious about this post. The fact that a good number of people are echoing your feelings means something. I'm with you. I won't address anyone directly, but IF this company can wrap up these loose ends and bring us back to a place where things make sense, I'll be amazed. The...

Lol. These aren't inconsistencies, they're stories we haven't told yet. You guys are going to have your minds blown by what's coming up. In fact, Book of Death answers one of the questions you posed here. You'll just have to wait I'm afraid. I'll just believe it when I see it, Dino. For now, I am n...

Maybe I'm just getting tired of Kindt writing half of the universe.

Yup. Fingers crossed he doesn't get anymore. Comic clichés, wacky lineages and vague story elements are not what I want from Valiant. For everything I enjoy there's twice as much I don't.

Thank you, sir! Stoked I actually got to interact with these guys!

I hope they can bring back the Fireseed characters and legacy without the Turok name.

I really enjoyed this issue and hope Unity #16 is a solo Gilad tale.

I think a per-character arc would be just what the doctor ordered for this book. Keeping my fingers crossed

I can think of a few reasons it doesn't work for me, so rest assured you're not alone. This was a lot better to me than a lot of the run.

Is there any info on subsequent trade printing? The new trade dress is driving me nucking futs

Hey all, I have some VEI books I'm looking to unload. The collection essentially consists of all the issues that have be re-printed in trades at the time I put it together. All together....174 issues. This represents most of the first two an a half years of VEIs single issue publications with the no...

I've been down on Unity for a long time, and down on Kindt even more so.

This... this was a damn fine issue right here.

It's gonna be good. I feel like the book is hitting its stride.

Wow. I was not expecting how this book opened. Harada's vision of the future is quite Utopian, but one has to wonder how much of it has to do with the Bleeding Monk. The Monk told Harada he would be the "father" of a new race, which jives with his utopia, as does the future the Monk may h...

Anyway... all in all, this has me excited. Having Dysart back just fills a gigantic hole, the guy is a genius.

The west providing anti-psiot tech? What a brilliantly realistic touch.

Can't wait to read more.
