Hopefully they get some good creators on board. Finishing the XO series that Liam Sharp was doing would a good start.

Looking at the portfolio of artists it seems like the mission is cheap artists. Feels like an approach you see from Dynamite Comics. Hope I'm wrong.

"Cheap" is a negative connotation.

It's an art studio in Argentina, so compared to artists in the US it'll be less expensive. That doesn't mean it's cheap.

There's a lot of good-looking art in their portfolio section.

They have Germane Peralta. I thought he did a fantastic job on Marvel's Maestro mini-series. I'd be excited to see him on a Valiant series.

Well, ever since they made their first announcement, I've been thinking....

"Damian Connelly would be an excellent choice for Shadowman."

+1 - totally agree.

Maestro was a great series of mini-series :D
