Whatdya know...a Valiant VE1 question

Post by Oxmyx »

In VE1, where was ArcherArmstrong during Armor Hunters? Was there any reference made, or allusion, or even a cameo anywhere? It just seems a strange omission.

Also, is there any similar reference of ArcherArmstrong during the Vine Invasion Fleet explosion? Or the aftermath of either the ring of debris or the aftermath of the Armor Hunters? It seems like proof of aliens (public) and a new world order would be hard to miss
I've been looking everywhere for the ultra-rare Turok vs Blister issue. Anybody able to help me out?

Correct me if I'm off base, you mean VEI though, right? As far as I know, VH1 is the original 90's guy, VEI is the current group. Either way, it seems like they just kind of left them aside for that storyline.

Aliens are fake news
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Yeah, gotta be careful on this board with "VE1". "VH1" and "VEI" refer to two very different time periods in the company's history!

VH1 is the 'original stuff', published back in the early 90's. VEI is everything 2012 - current day :thumb:

It’s been a while now but I definitely remember the Vine being brought up at some point during the FVL A&A run, but just as a side comment. I don’t believe they had any Armor Hunters tie in at all. Did they even have an ongoing at that point?

The ring of debris was used by livewire to fight x-o in harbinger wars 2.The vine and armor hunters are still missing.

And I'm pretty sure that that ring of alien debris has gone totally ignored and unexploited by any and all on Earth... facepalm

I noticed the ring of alien debris seen quite a bit in XO Prelude to Armor Hunters and made a story point in Harbinger Armor Hunters...I hadn't heard about the Harbinger Wars 2 thing...are there other appearances?
