Are Geomancer, Timewalker and/or Visitor worth reading?
Geomancer, Timewalker and The Visitor all came out after I drifted away from comics so I don't remember them as new titles and have never read an issue of any even though I have a few in my collection now?
Are any of these worth reading or getting complete runs if I don't care about having a complete Valiant set? I liked all of the core Valiant series and Ninjak.
It's really more about space for me than anything, I live in a downtown apartment with my fiance until we can get a bigger house or condo somewhere and I basically have room for 4 or 5 boxes of comics, over half of which are already Valiant. Some day soon I will start me hording lifestyle though

They each have their plus and minuses. I liked parts of Visitor better than others.Knob wrote:Geomancer, Timewalker and The Visitor all came out after I drifted away from comics so I don't remember them as new titles and have never read an issue of any even though I have a few in my collection now?

Timewalker failed to live to its potential, except for the Harbinger Wars trilogy, but that also had its flaws.
Geomancer was an okay series, but as a fan of continuity I can't give it much praise since it contradicts parts of it.

Archer & Armstrong, Eternal Warrior, Timewalker, and Geomancer are completely different concepts that have no business being forced into a single comic.
If VEI does that then they might as well just do a single VALIANT Universe comic a la newuniversal.
Forcing EW with Geomancer into one single comic makes as much sense as forcing Turok and Magnus into the same comic.

Timewalker and Visitor are good, but I didn't care too much for Geomancer
