Oh man that sucks... He was my favorite.

Oh well, at the end of the day, he's still illustrated some great stories. I wish him all the best of luck.

That doesn't necessarily mean he won't still be looking for regular work from Valiant. I'm guessing he just wants to explore other possibilities, if his work on Valiant has raised his profile enough to get better gigs with other companies.
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Hope he still does work for Valiant. One of my favorites.

Same here, Henry is one of my Valiant favorites (have some OA). I'm sure we'll see him again. :hope:

He's awesome - definitely one of the top talents Valiant has had on board, and a defining style that is integral to many of VEI's characters.

But I agree that not being exclusive doesn't mean he is gone from Valiant, unless he signs an exclusive with another company. He is just free to work for everyone now. Good for him!!
