Well said.

But justin took so much from me. From all of us. And looking at THAT print would remind me of all that he took.
Wrunow, some of the members of this board had FT over for dinner, they let him sleep in their houses, and some even gave him upwards of 60 books (like 60 Unity 1 Platinums for example) to get signed.

So the hurt, angst, pain, and lies mean much more than a weekend with the guys to some people.

I am not saying the guy isn't a jerk or doesn't owe anybody anything, I have had a lot of former friends for dinner in my 46 years, but, that shouldn't effect what happens with Chris's litho, that's all I am saying,

and it really does look sweet!

I have always answered all legitimate questions that were pm'd to me. I simply do not have the time to read every post.

What about the xo-ken thing? Or does that have to be through pms too?

Actually there is a signed edition thats from SDCC but it's not Rai #0.

Are there extra's?..... yeah a few. But considering that I started with about 60 of them. Everone in that room pretty much wanted one before they left so it's not a lot left. I'm trying to figure a fair way to distribute the remaining ones...there are a few going to several members that helped out in getting these Rai #0's they are also recieving one.

I continued to gather signatures after the panel on the remaining ones and think that up to 12 sign. are on the last few.
I'll try and get a pic up soon.

I'll announce the San Diego signed edition which is a full 53 copies with certificate soon.

It's a Variant VH-1 book.

Hey Brian,

You, sonicdan and Justin went out to a club until what... 3 am ? Was there anything said during that quality time you spent together ?

The same old song and dance I'm afraid. I did ask him several times "this is the first step right?" getting other board members stuff back to them taking care of the other things....

He said that this is the first step and he wants everything cleared up and taken care of before the new year dawns.

All I can tell you is what he said.

My main priority was getting the litho's from him this weekend....mission accomplished..

I certainly understand everyones thoughts on this issue. We all need to deal with betrayal in our own ways. For me I don't look at this litho as a Justin thing I see it as KC's and I'll be glad to own one. Better late than never and it is a very small step in the right direction for Justin who has a mountain still to climb.

What's so hard about Justin logging on and telling everyone what his game plan is? Keeping the people he owes stuff to in the dark is just making things worse as is apparent by the split of opinions on wanting the litho.

i told him publically and privately that very thing on NUMEROUS occasions dj...so far he's either unable or unwilling to make an accounting of himself.

so what do you do...i know if i was in this position and truly meant to make things right i'd be updating you guys everytime i even thought about something to help get this fixed.

he's decided to avoid the issue altogether and simply talk about what he's going to do.

well i'm tired of hearing about it...i'm damn well ready to see it.

KC - I'll be in for one of these. Layton's art is outstanding and these will look great framed.

I guess he didn't learn anything from the Psi lord print saga. Look at all the things that went wrong and numerous delays it had. But because Zach was honest with everyone and kept us informed most everyone understood thanks to those updates.

Burying his head in the sand won't make the problem go away. Showing up at events like nothing is wrong won't either. This is a very forgiving bunch, but even this group has their limits.

Brian... I apologize for the above post I was on the phone and actually thought I was typing a PM (see how it is formatted?) as I have also typed to sonicdan today.

This was not for public viewing and I apologize. I am on a roll, first screwing up the dinner table number and now this.

They will be leaving Ceres CA very soon....

Yep, I second that.
Kyle, thanks for offering us a place to stay...that was very cool of you.
You were a great host. It was nice to see we all had several common
interests (Valiant Comics, Music, etc.) and you shared some GREAT stories. Keep in touch.
Thanks bro!

It was my pleasure. You guys were in a jam and I thought it the right thing to do. You guys were so much fun that I insist you come again next year.

I only wish I had more time to talk your ears off about more things Valiant. It was a pretty good Comic Con this year (Damned Stan Lee

) and I can't wait until next year.

Next year I will bring my own cheering section as well.

Jed - I didn't know you were a cheerleader...

Then again - being a guy on an otherwise all girl squad doesn't sound all that bad. That is of course assuming they are all HOT chicks.

I refuse to be a part of ANY post that is gay. Please refrain from your 'Wil & Grace Hallmark Moment'
