Re: Slate story on Valiant
I saw that too. I thought it was a nice story, and pretty much everything written in that vein is going to be a fluff piece. Some opinionated *SQUEE* have been trying to throw dirt on VEI's grave since Day 1.jedimarley wrote:BS fluff piece.

"In pursuit of that goal, the new Valiant busted out the old Valiant’s love of self-important bluster and gimmicks. It’s put out branded skateboards and pint glasses, custom downloadable emoji and collectible leggings."
Skateboard and leggings?

Interesting article. It must have been pretty discouraging at times, especially during the VIP mess. Glad they stuck with it and saw their dream become a reality.
