V-Ditty teases another first (re)appearance
I put this in the Spoiler area because it is not an official tease.
From V-Ditty's twitter:
Any other thoughts from our VALIANT experts?
From V-Ditty's twitter:
My only thought is 141st infantry...which made me think of Armorines, but the 141st is an Army regiment.“@robertvenditti: Just realized this scene I'm about to write will have the first appearance of another classic Valiant character. Hint: 141.”
Any other thoughts from our VALIANT experts?

William Michael Pendragon, a foe of Ninjak, witnesses his mother's killing in January of 1941.
That's all I got.

I checked X-O#14 page 1, but that is not the answer because that would be Turok.

Re: V-Ditty teases another first (re)appearance
1st series, 4th book, 1st page = Ken
We've guessed that Alexander Dorian will be the new Ken, but Valiant could also reintroduce Ken.
(It's a stretch, though, because that's not Ken's first appearance, so I don't know why 141 would be the hint.)

Re: V-Ditty teases another first (re)appearance
I checked on the year of General Cheng's first appearance: 210 BC, so it's not that...
Then there's this. Dare I post it?
3941: 1A, in an attempt to create the perfect robot fighter, begins conducting genetic experiments on humans. The experiments fail and the super-humans are driven insane. 1A, instead of killing them, sends them to an asylum on Phobos to live out the remainder of their days.
(Magnus Robot Fighter #12 – Trial and Error)
1(A) 41?

Re: V-Ditty teases another first (re)appearance
I also thought 141 could be ADA (letters of the alphabet)... but I don't know what A.D.A. would stand for. A.D. could be Aric Dacia... but the other "A" doesn't mean anything to me.
14-1 is N.A. --- Neville Alcott? Obviously he's needed if the Ninjak stories continue.
That might be the best guess so far...

1141 Tashi Khatun begins writing the Book of Geomancers.
(Conjecture: Khatun says he’s been writing it for “over fifty years.”)(Eternal Warrior #9)
I really doubt this is it. I would also like to say that I think it's awesome that people are checking the timeline. I'm glad it's useful.

The only alphabet I can think of with more than 40 characters would be the pre-reform (1705?) Russian alphabet. That monstrosity had something like 44 characters.jmatt wrote:I guess I can stop trying to figure out what the 41st letter of the alphabet is.BugsySig wrote:Damn you Greg!

Klingon has around the same, Vulcan too maybe, but I know they are made up and don't count.
