Will People Please Stop Spreading Lies/Misinformation!?

Post by TheFerg714 »

I'm a tad annoyed because I keep seeing multiple people in here, and on Facebook and Twitter, saying that Eric Heisserer is leaving Valiant.

THIS IS NOT TRUE

I mean, sure, he might be. There's a good chance of him leaving, but there is absolutely zero evidence to back this claim up. BleedingCool made a stupid article announcing his departure (without citing any evidence), and Heisserer corrected them on Twitter later.

1.) Chill out.
2.) I said I believe he was gone, and it was based on the Bleeding Cool article and his twitter (which stated he's not sure of his status, he didn't deny anything about the article) You took it one way, I took it another. That's why I said I BELIEVE! You don't know he's staying, I don't know for sure he's leaving.

Ok please don't get mad at me but

My understanding (in talking to certain people) is Eric isn't writing anything "right now" for Valiant. Anything had had in the pipe has been either put on indefinite hold for was far enough in production to ever come out.

Don't believe everything you might read there was a reason HWII was restructured. Sometimes when someone tells you to read between the lines it's time to read between the lines. You might not like what you read but the truth hurts.

I totally agree with this. All I'm saying is that it's ridiculous to say for certain that he's gone. I would agree that, when reading between the lines, it kind of looks like Heisserer might be leaving, but I'm just sick of people passing it off as fact before anything's been set in stone.

You weren't the only one. And you said "HW2 prelude will be his last book," which is a claim that you have no evidence for.

My point is that I don't know whether he's leaving or not, and neither does anyone else, so stop jumping to conclusions.

Reading his twitter feed, to me it sounds less like "I'm leaving" and more like "I did the work I was hired for and there's no new work in the pipeline. I'd love to do more but .... *crickets*". Which in itself is a huge disappointment. I feel like before the shakeup there was plans for more (RAMPANT BASELESS SPECULATION ON MY PART!), he seemed to have great optimistic excitement regarding his future at Valiant. Now ..... *crickets*

Can we get an exterminator to spray for all these damn crickets!

Just real quick, because I haven't weighed in one way or the other up until now, but how is you proclaiming that he's not leaving, despite the Bleeding Cool article, not also potentially spreading disinformation? I mean "THIS IS NOT TRUE" is a pretty definitive statement on your part, which may very well prove to be wrong.

I know everything is up in the air right now, and DMG is choosing not to provide any info whatsoever (which seems to be a large misstep imho) but you have no more information than anyone else does, and if EH doesn't do anymore writing, you then are just as guilty of spreading misinformation at the moment as the people you are pointing fingers at.

Just my two cents.
I wonder what it would be like to be a lonely, muck-encrusted monster? Probably be an improvement.

Eric Heisserer has webbed toes because he is part duck, also he only eats grapes. Read between the lines of his twitter and you'll see he makes it pretty clear.

It would be cool if the new regime decided to troll us with a Birthquake 12-issue event series announcement on April 1st.... just to show us they're watching and mindful...

Beat me to the punch. Until we hear Heisserer himself we have to assume he's still writing for Valiant. He tweet was very explicit in clarifying that he was NOT leaving despite the rumors. He has clarified this TWICE. The future of Secret Weapons is unknown until the DMG manage settles in. Until there's an official statement assume that Eric is just waiting until the new management decides what they want.

Variety recently reported that he's writing the screenplay for the Bloodshot movie.

Now, I suppose that could change but that sure doesn't sound like he's leaving. And if the report is true, not only is he writing something for VEI but perhaps the single most important thing that's ever been written for Valiant.

That's the same screenplay that's been in Sony Entertainments hands for about three years. Will there be changes to the script yes I just hope it's Eric that makes those changes...

Except now you have a certain someone who used to be at VEI working on the SONY side of that movie being made, w/out ANY (ZERO) involvement from DMG. (not a rumor) :)
