The VH2 acronym sucks. Let's rename it!
There's been plenty of disdain for the VH1 and VH2 acronyms used to name the two Valiant Comics lines from 92-00.
Since Acclaim bought Valiant, came up with these acronyms, and then drove the Valiant brand into bankruptcy, I don't think their acronyms deserve to live.
Let's replace them with something more meaningful, "something that doesn't make [Greg] hear the Behind the Music theme" every time he reads VH1.
Vote on VH1 here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37921&p=811057#p811057" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Vote on VEI here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37923" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Place your votes and debate below!
Also, please feel free to send me more ideas and I'll add them to the options.

Re: The VH2 acronym sucks. Let's rename it!
We really were not the ones who came up with the VH-2 term. the staff of Acclaim when it relaunched pretty much named it that and used it on a regular basis in the letters pages. Some times those letter pages were the best part of those books

I'd add Acclaim, but that would erase the other votes.greg wrote:Acclaim

If other people like Acclaim, quote this and I'll tally it.

I would agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

Looks like the vast majority want to stick with VH2. Just point anyone whining about the VH2 acronym in the future to this poll.
