I’m here near daily. I still buy Valiant. Yesterday, I was at 2nd Charles for the first time. Bought a VEI variant for a dollar, and a newsstand. Still digging in the boxes.


Plus, an old Milk and Cheese. Love that comic!

Awesome.

We've had Shooter, Layton, Nicieza, and Shamdasani. Who else has overseen VALIANT creatively?

You're missing the last 5 years. Joseph Illidge then Heather Antos then Robert (something?). Maybe someone after that, who's in charge of X-O Unconcerned?

I consider James Perham one, although not much came of his efforts. Was Mike Marts in charge during Unity 2000? Was Jeff Gomez in charge for a bit?

Gomez left before Nicieiza.

How long did Illidge last and what did he do? It felt like he came and went like this.



And I have no clue what Antos did, only that people hated it. No clue who Robert is.

Lol no doubt. Illidge was the first EiC (or Executive Editor, whatever they were calling it) after DMG took over. They did Valiant Next (No, Valiant Beyond, I had to look it up). This was 2018

Antos was after that, can't quite remember any specific titles, maybe Psi-Lords?

Looks like Robert Meyers was 'Senior Editorial Director' for a while, then he disappears and Lysa Hawkins is listed as Senior Editor. It's pretty confusing, some books list 3 or 4 editors when they're only putting out maybe 5 limited series? Seems crazy

Interesting. They do need more stability than that.

Was Robert the guy that showed up and launched the Kickstarter and NFTs almost right off the bat?

I'm still here routinely enough. I post a little less though mostly because I've been focused on a personal project that I put most of my attention towards for some time now, and then also because there isn't much to say that hasn't been said until there is something new.

I really need to find the time to read all of VEI and post the threads I would have made had I been here when those comics were published.

Just don't know when that might be, or if I'd be able to.

Are you planning on getting banned again?

?? I was banned?!?! I don't think I've ever been banned from a forum in almost 25 years of using them!

I’ve been noticing a hell of a lot of kids in all the cities around here seem to suddenly have all the same haircut… my wife describes it as a mushroom top - shaved sides that flare up to as much of a curly poof on top as they can manage to grow

Broccoli head or broccoli cut is the most common term I'm hearing.

Yeah, that’s the one! *This* is the style that’s gonna stay popular for decades to come, guys - I can just feel it!!

Broccoli top will always be
Hair sweet hair to me
Good old broccoli top
Broccoli top Hennessy

that is indeed the hairstyle I’m seeing everywhere in large gangs of kids - it literally looks like groups of clones of the same kid when I see them sometimes (even to the point of all wearing nearly the exact same set of black clothes & white shoes!)

To be honest, the hairstyle is so regrettable that I'm actually happy that "mullet" is going to fall to second place on "worst of all time".

The boards are dead because the dream died again. VALIANT is cursed by bad actors with $

Exactly. If the question is why aren't more people visiting, the answer is because nothing is happening. People wonder how many more times this thing can be resurrected. It's hard to be excited about something that appears to have no real future.

Also, hi guys!

jmatt sighting!! Hey man - hope you’re doing well!
