Valiant Heroes: Starting Over

Post by sidekickcomics »

Does anybody have a good version of Valiant Heroes: Starting Over for download? I read some messages saying someone had once pulled it all together in a nice version... I'd love to see it! Can anybody help? Thanks!

Hi all!

I recognize how crazy this is, and being brand new to the board I don't know if this will be seen or just consigned to the annals of threads past, but I was wondering if anybody happened to have a copy of these .pdfs? Quality doesn't matter to me, I'm just dying to read the VH2/Acclaim intro stories!

I only recently started in as a Valiant fanatic, thanks to the new stuff that's being published, and the completist in me won't have that itch scratched until I'm able to read "Starting Over"!

Thanks/Apologies, in advance!

Welcome to the board. Hopefully someone reads this and can get you the PDF you're looking for. If not, I'm pretty sure all the previews were posted around here somewhere. It will just take a bit of digging around the older threads to find them.

I think this gets asked every once in a while. I've uploaded once to megaupload to share but the link has since expired. I think it's a pretty large file. Is there a place I can upload without it expiring?

I will send a PM to greg to see if he wants to host/share.

Dropbox won't expire. It will take up your personal space, so if you actually use Dropbox, you might not want to go that route. If you don't use it, just make an account, upload it to the cloud, and link it here.

If Dropbox works, that's great for me. Or really any system. Beggers/choosers and so on. :)

Oh, and if an outside person needs to host it somewhere, and I can figure out how (not the greatest technical know-how guy here), I'd be happy to do so!

At the risk of being heinously annoying, just figured I'd bump this and see if anybody has the "Starting Over" story to share. :)

Thank you!

Thanks to both of you! I was able to find those first pages elsewhere on the board, and the Quantum & Woody section was reprinted in the new collection of the Acclaim stuff, but no leads on anything else thus far.

A couple parts (5 & 6) are available in Previews on ebay...not terribly priced.
