If you gave Aric hugs and kisses, would it be XOXO X-O?

X-O: Birth at the NYCC

First impression--looks awesome. The recoloring is beautiful. Nice solid package, definitely feels like you get your money's worth. New X-O story is exciting and feels very much like old school Valiant. Full review coming soon on Sequart.org.

And thanks for using our quotes from the Valiant Tangent on the dust jacket!

Its great to hear some actual, fresh news about Valiant.

I wonder wheh they are going to start having a bigger presence at conventions and start making some big announcements?

If I were going to NYCC, I'd snag this in a heartbeat. Last year at Wizard Chicago, I was about two steps away from getting the Harbinger HC but then thought to myself "Nahh... I've already got it on order, I'll wait a couple weeks". Yeah, I just got my copy two weeks ago that I had ordered last August. Stupid lawsuit! :!:

Where did you order it from that it took so long?

I ordered it out of Previews from my LCS and Diamond didn't distribute them until all the legal woes were taken care of.

My order didn't take nearly as long as yours to get, but I went through the same thing with DCBS after Diamond pulled the orders. I convinced my LCS owner to go through VEI to get it while I waited on the other order. If I would have went through Amazon in the first place, I'm sure I would have gotten it right away.
