I'd be happy to add credits if they can be determined.Todd Luck wrote:Cool stuffI never even realized they did a Dr. Mario story.
Are there any plans to put credits on them?
(Many are probably uncredited... I think QB is working on those details.)

All the Nintendo comics I've seen were credited (I'm sure WWF was too) and QB has the credits listed on his site.greg wrote:I'd be happy to add credits if they can be determined.Todd Luck wrote:Cool stuffI never even realized they did a Dr. Mario story.

Very cool, Greg! Do you plan on adding any of the Windjammer, Armada, etc.?
Also, there were several Valiant created stories that appeared in NINTENDO POWER MAGAZINE, including Battletoads, and a Metroid poster that spanks of Bob Layton's armor artwork. There are no art credits, but the Battletoads story does say it was from Valiant. The start of the Nintendo comics was announced in issue #25 of NP in June 1990 (I think), with quotes from Shooter.---Steve

Eventually... those are Acclaim books, however,Vault-Keeper wrote:Very cool, Greg! Do you plan on adding any of the Windjammer, Armada, etc.?
so I'll need an "Acclaim - Other Publications" section.
(Even though Windjammer cleverly uses the compass, it's still Acclaim.)
I'm not looking forward to adding the 14,000 Magic the Gathering comics, though.

The key to having any comic added is high-resolution cover scans.
Until I have those, projects generally remain "for the future".
I wouldn't classify those with the comics (or comic magazines) specifically from Valiant.Vault-Keeper wrote: Also, there were several Valiant created stories that appeared in NINTENDO POWER MAGAZINE, including Battletoads, and a Metroid poster that spanks of Bob Layton's armor artwork.

They probably belong in a more expanded version of "miscellaneous items".

I do not believe that the Metroid poster was by Bob Layton, but for most of 1991 and possibly longer the comic Howard and Nester was by Art Nichols. There are even a couple of short articles mentioning him and Voyager Communications in conjunction with that comic.Vault-Keeper wrote:Also, there were several Valiant created stories that appeared in NINTENDO POWER MAGAZINE, including Battletoads, and a Metroid poster that spanks of Bob Layton's armor artwork.

The BEST OF NINTENDO COMICS SYSTEM and The BEST OF SUPER MARIO BROSVault-Keeper wrote:The BEST OF NINTENDO COMICS SYSTEM was a Hardcover book. I believe there were two different ones released. They are the first two Valiant Hardbacks.---Steve
Quinton's got them under "Other publications" at http://qrnd.com/vf/pag/best.html#NCS

Is there an English one?greg wrote:Got a scan of the English version?dellamorte wrote:What about the KFC comic?
Isn't Spanish the official language of USA (ducks).(Currently that Spanish one belongs on a "foreign editions" page.)
It might be the only foreign language edition created by Voyager themselves, complicating the categorisation further.

Looks like there's a problem with the larger photo, but that book is already listed.Vault-Keeper wrote:The BEST OF NINTENDO COMICS SYSTEM was a Hardcover book. I believe there were two different ones released. They are the first two Valiant Hardbacks.---Steve
(The larger photo will be reloaded tonight, but it will match the smaller photo on this page.)

What does the other version look like?
Re: Valiant Nintendo and WWF books added to cover library
Btw, in the soft cover TPBs I just noticed that one version has an ad for Magnus that the other doesn't have. With artwork I have not seen elsewhere...greg wrote:Valiant Nintendo and WWF books added to cover library
