Would you miss Orb Industries?

At the begining of the "Acclaim Comics Valiant Heroes" run, Acclaim actually referred to it has VH1 and VH2. I believe it was in one of the newsletters at the back of the books.

Yep. It's Acclaim's fault. Literally.

Valiant Heroes 1 seems sorta lame.

Extremely lame.

VH1 is a music channel... Acclaim wasn't Valiant, didn't deserve to use the name.

VH1 is an even worse label now. It's still a music channel. Acclaim still wasn't Valiant.
Now the numbering doesn't even make any sense, relative to the new books.

VH1 might be a quick way to say "the first Valiant universe", but even then people have to ask... what does VH1 stand for?



I may have to change the auto-correct for VH1 back to something that doesn't make me hear the "Behind the Music" theme when I see it.

I propose:

VU = the Shooter VALIANT universe
VH = the first Acclaim Valiant
VH2K or VH2 = the post Unity 2000 Acclaim Valiant

I'd like to adopt:
VU = Valiant Universe
VA = Valiant heroes, Acclaim comics (just use the V and A like the logo did) [OR] VHAC = Valiant Heroes, Acclaim Comics (the full text on the logo: http://d1466nnw0ex81e.cloudfront.net/is ... 3671_1.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)
VEI = Valiant Entertainment Inc. (I wish the Inc wasn't in there, but it is)

Either way, VH1 and VH2 have to go!

Let's have a vote!
Replace VH1 here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37921" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Replace VH2 here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37922" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
And what about VEI: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37923" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I don't want them to fall into the trap The Marvel Ultimate Universe fell into, but I don't see why Orb (Or Omen or *insert original valiant concept*) can't be brought into the new universe, in a cool and interesting way or even a subtle way that keeps it fresh and isn't simply retelling those old stories.
