vip's Next Project Poll

What do you think vip's next move should be?

Chiclo · Post by **Chiclo** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 4:43 pm

There's a general concensus that threads dealing primarily with vip should fall into the Marvel, DC and Independants forum.

I propose a fourth option to your poll - obscurity. Let them pass into history without ceremony or fanfare. May their legacy be nothing more than a footnote in the tale of Valiant's great resurgence. Anything else is more than they deserve.

As for the possibility of bankruptcy, I doubt there's enough of a structure to vip to fall into bankruptcy.

I agree just let them fade away.

I went with ridicule. If VIP is DF, chances of bankruptcy is probably slim. And strictly from a legal standpoint, I don't see what they have done as illegal. Defiantly immoral though.

I am not convinced that vip is DF. I just get the feeling that vip is Lovitz.

After putting out that horrible preview book I think option number three has occurred already. Number one will soon follow if they actually put out a comic that looks like the ashcan....

Not very often that a few hundred dollars is gonna bankrupt even the smallest of corporations, there is probably no overhead to their organization. Bankruptcy really is not even a viable option IMO. They will go away, when the time is right for them to sell their holdings to VEI. I am a firm believer that vip is not in the business to make comic books, just money.

Why can't VIP just go away.

How about public executions as an option? They still have those in Texas right?

The "Needed Killing" laws might apply . . .

There should have been an "I do not care, I am going for Ice Cream" Option here ..

It would probably won here...

My vote would be "All of the above" also

What do you guys plan to do once vip's identity and which creators are working on their concepts are revealed?

Will you boycott anything and everything they do? Any other plans?

Daniel Jackson · Post by **Daniel Jackson** » Sun Aug 19, 2007 6:08 pm

After what they have put VEI through not to mention the delaying of the new VU for us fans, I would not buy a single thing they put out. All they would have are names and none of the concepts or actual characters anyway, so they couldn't even do what Acclaim did with them. They may as well come up with their own names and try to do it the right way, but I still believe that they never intended on making books with the trademarks anyhow.

That we know.

What I'm wondering is if there'll be any backlash against those behind vip and those who vip hires on their non-VALIANT related projects.

The characters VIP have aren't Valiant and what plans do they have. They don't even have a website.
