Re: Are we becoming indifferent towards Valiant?

3. I have no interest in Final Witness, Bunn on Shadowman sounds boring, and Savage looks like cartoon-y crap, When comics start getting distributed again, I would be willing to try Final Witness and Shadowman. I have enjoyed some of Bunn's other work, and would like to see his take on Shadowman.

Re: XO Manowar [2020] #1 Discussion

It's nowhere near as bad as Acclaim X-O, which I'm currently reading out of morbid curiosity, but it's a sign that they aren't trying to keep the characters in-character. Disagree, Mark Waid and Acclaim are much better than the drivel being produced at VEI right now. My opinion is based off the cra...

Re: Bloodshot #0 Discussion

This is the most coherent Bloodshot comic in some time. It's still got Seeley wording quirks that pull me out of the story for a blip, but otherwise enjoyable. It's unclear where in the timeline this taking place other than after Harbinger Wars 2. And it's also unclear why this is a #0 other than t...

I like the concept of Edeilion and Bloodshot having a romantic relationship, but will be dropping this title.

It's the one you owned.
Does it have the same CGC number?

I think this is the copy that Geek Comics had sold back in 2018.

Bloodshot and HARD Corps 2, I would be all over that.
After reading Bloodshot Deluxe Edition 2, I would like to see that as well.

I got the Carbon Fiber cover. It feels too light for the price tag. With the glass books you got a nice weight to go with the higher price.

Re: Bloodshot (2019) #1 discussion

Bloodshot Reborn and Salvation were “better.” Bloodshot Rising Spirit was MUCH “worse.” This book is not terrible and it’s not great. It is what it is, and it’s a significant improvement from where we were just a few months ago. Personally, I liked what Dinesh put out; however, I am not going to ha...

Re: Are there scans/pdfs of the Valiant Voice 0-19 anywhere?

When I put the binds together, I like to have books with complete stories (like Steve did with the crossovers). I have purchased some bound Valiant (on eBay for a deal), and the binder went with the numerical order of the series, which I feel leaves you hanging if you are missing part of the story. ...

I thought the HC did a good job of pulling all of the issues together in a reading order that made sense to the story. It certainly made me want to see how the XO series continued ( I am still trying to find XO HC Deluxe 4 and 5).
