Re: Is Archer and Armstrong a limited series?
Hmmm...
It's been said there were four titles this year... but there is also a teaser for Eternal Warrior "Winter 2012"...
Maybe A &A just turns into Eternal Warrior?

It's not that I don't have an avatar... I've just been working on it for the last few hundred years.

I just asked Fred Van Lente via twitter if A&A was an ongoing or a LS.
He says ongoing!

Great to get confirmation!
But could FVLs run be limited...? He said the word at least twice in that interview. I hope not, but something doesn't jive here.

Re: Is Archer and Armstrong a limited series?
I agree good news! They have so many stories to tell on Armstrong's past. I liked that about the eternal brothers. They had an infinite amount of stories to tell.sonicdan wrote:Crow331 wrote:Dino just confirmed on Twitter that it is on going

Re: Is Archer and Armstrong a limited series?
We will see EW in 2012 and Rai in 2013, but I don't think it will be in their own titles. Starting 4 and keeping it that way until next summer seems like it might be a good plan to me.Aram wrote:Hmmm...

What we need is innovation and even revolution—but not so much in the form of marketing ploys and doohickeys. What is needed is bold creative vision, excellent stories, and brilliant storytelling, in a word, entertainment. -- Jim Shooter

Re: Is Archer and Armstrong a limited series?
Agreed. I would prefer minis for this reason and also because I would love to see the Valiant universe expanded without breaking my wallet400yrs wrote:If it's a mini, I'm good with that. In fact, I think that would be the better way to go. Everyone loves A&A for BWS's stuff. After that, and IMO even some of the BWS stuff, it wasn't very good.
Minis would ensure the best stories are put out there and they aren't just putting out garbage to fill a month. Buddy books DO tend to get old quick in the marketplace.
