Questions about a couple of the upcoming trades

Post by DIrishB »

Just had a question as to exactly what issues the upcoming trade collections of X-O Manowar Vol. 6: Prelude to Armor Hunters and Bloodshot Vol. 5: Get Some! will collect. I'm assuming X-O Vol 6 will collect X-O #23-25, and assuming Bloodshot Vol 5 will collect #18-22 and HARD Corps #0. But Archer & Armstrong Vol 5 is also collecting Bloodshot & HC #20-21 as part of the Mission: Improbable crossover arc, so wondering if they're just collecting those issues in both trades.

Bit confused since Amazon's listings/solicits for those newer Valiant trades no longer specifically state which issues are collected (which is very annoying).

Also, the Shadowman - End Times TPB is listed as 104 pages, but it's collecting only the 3 issues, which I believe are 22 pages each. That's 66 pages of story...so are they including 38 pages of supplemental stuff? It'd be cool if the #13X issue was included here. While I have the individual issue I'd love to see the trade program collect everything.

Bloodshot volume 5 will not have the two Mission Improbable issues. 18, 19, 22, 23 & Hard Corps 0. A&A volume 5 is the Mission Improbable arc along with Archer 0.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Wonder if Bleeding Monk #0 will be included in Harbinger Vol. 6.

How do you know? It hasn't even been solicited yet.

Harbinger Vol 5 doesn't come out until mid-July, so Vol 6 likely won't be out until around November, meaning it's solicitation wouldn't be out until Aug/Sept...unless you're basing your answer off info given by the writer or someone else at Valiant who'd know.

I think he said no because he believes it will be a part of Vol. 5 as part of the "Resistance/Death of a Renegade" arc.

I think I said no because I got the volumes confused. Volume 5, according to the last page in Volume 4, will not have Bleeding Monk in it.

Lol, no worries. I'm keeping my fingers crossed they include it in Harbinger Vol. 6, just to appease my completionist mindset in regards to the trades.

Well, then, my work is done. ;)

Basically I was asking if the Harbinger - Bleeding Monk #0 issue was going to be included in the Harbinger Vol 6 trade. iwantvaliant said no because he was confusing thinking of Vol. 5, which since it's including the @x and Death of a Renegade issues wouldn't really have room. Hopefully with Harbinger Vol. 6 collecting the post Death of a Renegade issues there'll be room for BM #0.

I thought we agreed not to refer to him as "BM" :?

I must've missed that memo.

In my defense, technically I was referring to the issue (Harbinger - Bleeding Monk #0), not the character himself. ;)
