I believe it would be cheaper to get the regular/pullbox from a comic shop because of shipping. It theory, you have to have a pullbox to get the pullbox variant from a comic shop, but almost all of them are treating it like a 50/50 and just throwing it on the shelves. The 1:20s and 1:50s are ...

Mr. Tull is intriguing...Could he represent HARD Corps?

I got a very "alien" feeling from him... but I might be way off-base on that. :hm:

Either idea is pretty intriguing! I really liked the earlier HARD Corps issues, would be nice to see some hints or some appearance in some form, and would ...

Will he continue to have Vine worshipers? What will be the repercussions amongst the Vine?

Since the Vine is split between believing the suit is a "god" and not believing, do you think seeing X-O will cause two separate factions of the Vine, one for and one against?

I think there's quite a bit ...

So this is an incredibly dumb question, but I've never seriously been into current comics. My Valiants have all been bought after the fact from quarter bins in random comic shops, Dollar Store baggies, or online. Thus far, for my X-O and Harbinger purchases, I've basically just bought "sets" of the ...

I remember buying these at Toys r Us as well. I am pretty sure I got one once with XMen #5 and Uncanny 288 (I Think, just going off the top of my head). They were the 1st appearances of Omega Red and Bishop, respectively. I also got one once with Next Men and Justice Machine issues...pretty sweet ...

I'm so hoping Phantasy Star Online 2 comes to the U.S.

Me too. If anybody here picks it up, hit me up, I'll for sure be enjoying it for quite a while!

Playing a bit of AION lately since it's free to play, as well as my usual Rift. On the console side, still a bit of ME3 multiplayer (eagerly ...

I used to buy those kinds of packs at Toy's R Us when I was a kid. I might run down to my local Dollar Tree just to see that they don't have these too! My Dollar Tree never get's cool stuff except for one time they had Transformers G1 XBOX 360 Face Plates. That was kind of cool. Never seen comics ...

Finally got my issues (and variants!) today. Really stoked, because I was a broke kid during the original Valiant (see my old Dollar Store Valiant post!), and more or less never had a current issue. Comics in general, in fact, fall into that category: outside of a random Iron Man, Spider Man or ...

Embarrased to say I've never read Watchmen (not embarrased to say I've never seen Watchmen), so I can't really say.

Just watch the movie. It was actually better. Much better!! :thumb:

I tried to read that post allowed and it burned my tongue.

Why would you say such a thing, steverino? :cry ...

Waiting for my games to arrive from overseas, so I'm skipping around with the few games I do have with me.... Fable II, Dragon's Age Origins, Lost Odyssey, Vegas 2...

I loved the New O setting, the voodo vibe, the entire thing.

I loved the Blood running arc, I like that he got beat up a lot. Without SM, would there have been an Darque?

I concur. I liked ShadowMan a lot, and I preferred him post-Unity as well.

Hmm... probably Assassin's Creed II and Dragon's Age.

I didn't get too into the first AC, but it was fun enough, and I like Bioware in general, so I'd probably roll with Dragon's Age. Left 4 Dead didn't do it for me; I felt like RE5 pulled off the whole "massive waves of zombies" thing with a ...

I personally loved the Malev War as well. Part of it is sentimental, I'm sure, because those issues were so cheap and common that for a kid on a budget they were my first real experience with VALIANT.

But I do genuinely like it as a story, and the OP's own excitement is making me think of re ...

Scary stuff. It's the one-of-a-kind things that would really hit close to home. I could deal with a TV getting stolen, or some everyday DVDs, but stuff like this... wow.

short ahh for 50 bucks games need to have that replay factor for me hence the love of zelda mario and the game called KART

Yeah, I suppose that might it in this case. If I had paid $50 for The Hobbit, I might feel a little differently about it. Well worth the price now though.

What system is ...

That's actually way cool; I love games that tie into holidays. Reminds me of Christmas NiGHTS back on the day, with all it's Holiday bonuses.

I may go ahead and nab Headbanger from 'em, thanks!

Recently finished up Ultimate Alliance 2, now I'm kinda floating between some older games, mostly Dissidia and Devil May Cry 4.

I'm trying to get a hold of Magna Carta 2 and Smackdown! vs RAW 2010, but the NEX down here sucks.

I actually did just nab Bloodyhot and S.O.F.T. Corps in a recent purchase I made on eBay, but it was the first time I had seen the latter pop up in a while. I don't think I've ever seen, say, O-X Cowowar pop up though.

Maybe eBay is just the wrong place to look for 'em, I dunno.

Hey that rhymes! Kinda. Or not.

Anyway, are those parodies listed particularly rare? I check eBay fairly regularly and they don't seem to pop up much, and I don't think I've seen any of the VALIANT-related ones in store archives. I'm trying to hunt 'em down, but it seems like it's taking a long ...

Fabian Nicieza.

I remember seeing that post. I think it was found it in a bargain bin?
I'd like to get ahold of one that's for sure! I'd also like to get a copy
of the game (even though I heard it was kinda lame).
DAN

I actually rather enjoyed what I played of the game. My bro and I put in a few hours on the ...

While I'm always hesitant (and probably more apt, against) using what seems to be net talk as something that should be taken into account when making business decisions involving comics, the two most talked about comics from VALIANT/ACCALAIM I always find to be are A&A and Quantum and Woody when it ...

I've been attempting to draw lately, and to my surprise there doesn't seem to be a lot of VALIANT art on the web. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but with all the oddities I see on devianART, there seems to be little related to VALIANT.

So while I am rather pleased that my crappy mimickery ...

It actually looks pretty inventive. But isn't it missing a couple notes? o.ô
