Please forgive my poor photography skills. There may be pics of some of this stuff elsewhere, but I'll put these pics up anyway.

I can only find 1 set of Shadowman sunglasses, but I know there's another type that's got a chrome frame. There be even more types than even the 2 I know of. The sunglasses have "Shadow Man" etched on the frames too, but I could not get a pic to show it.

Somewhat Valiant related... Dark Horse came out with a mini set of playing cards for a promo at San Diego the year they got the rights to reprint Magnus & Solar material:

Damn, this is all very cool stuff. It makes me glad that I stick, at least for the most part, to the comics.

Bloodshot prints:
Bair from '93:
Velluto Acclaim:
Valiant & Acclaim "Bloodshot meets Bloodshot" by Perlin & Velluto:
The last print is a fantastic piece of art & was made into the print by the infamous Joe Petrilak. I don't agree with his business practices & some of his personality traits over the net may not be the most popular, but you cannot deny some of the great things he did to promote Valiant. I'm still trying to hunt many of them down. If we're going to bash him for his failures then we ought to still celebrate his successes. I'll step off my podium now & I apologize to anyone who didn't wish to read it.

It was impressive and it gets better. A true pleasure to see. There's much for me to hunt down.

I have an untrimmed, unused Bloodshot #0 Gold cover. It was folded, though. Still a pretty cool item for me.
Wow! I'm just revelling in these pics. Thanks for sharing!
