Great Artwork Ryan! What was your concept for XO in your pictures? His tactical camera seems to be breaking off of him (with splinters)

Re: I know they both smashed robots in Unity but



who would you say is stronger - Magnus or Gilad?


Just saw some comparisons in Unity. In Archer & Armstrong 1 Albert seems to rank Magnus only slightly above Gilad. Asked who (except for Aram) can knock a robot's block off he answers: "Magnus, Rai, X-O... probably Gilad, too". In Rai 7 Erica ...

Re: Did future Gilad talk to Geoff at all?




That suggests multiple timelines or at least that the way the 90's and Unity happened for future Gil was different. Doesn't he mention at some point that he remembers things happening differently?


Yes, "It didn't go like this. It's all different. Worse". And then there's that scar that ...

Re: Did future Gilad talk to Geoff at all?

I don't understand. Future Gilad knew Geoff, presumably spent Geoff's lifetime together in some capacity. He knew his first and last name. What does an alternate uni have to do with it?

Did future Gilad talk to Geoff at all?

At one point before meeting with the 1992 team Solar finds the 4001 crew and asks Gilad "Where's Geoff?"

To which Gilad responds something like If you mean Geoff McHenry I'm afraid I haven't seen him in a very long time.

Well he was about to see him again. But they don't cover that reunion. Gilad ...

Re: So my girl started reading Unity



Time passes at the same rate in the LL as in the world outside it. Kris was about 3 months prego and after 6 months in the LL she had Magnus.

IDK if it is Turok's perception or Valiant going off the rails at that point (probably both) but Turok 0 has alot of facts wrong.

Turok says he met XO in Unity which he never did.

He says Mothergod created the Lost Land which she did not. (Maybe she lied to him)

He says the only way to defeat ...

The question is, how much slower does time move in the Lost Land than it does outside it?

Could the answer be in Turok exiting the Lost Land in 1987? How much longer after he entered it is that? A century? How much time had he and Andar been in the Lost Land before it was "destroyed"?

I don't know if Phil made Magnus since Magnus was not fictional before Phil went back in time.

Re: So my girl started reading Unity

They do say the lost land is a part of the backstage of reality that is the most sluggish. That can mean its possible to go to an earlier time in the lost land. Unity has some contradictory points on this but that can just be the 'error' of the people talking.

Re: So my girl started reading Unity




The VALIANT Universe is, by its very nature, paradoxical. That is why Erica hates Phil.

Magnus' 4001 is the present, not the future, while Solar's 1991 is the past, not the present.

In this sense, the effect (Magnus, North Am, etc.) preceded the cause (Solar recreating the universe).

Well, since Magnus was the first VALIANT comic, the argument would be that the VALIANT Universe exists in the same continuity and universe as the Gold Key Magnus comics , and that it is within THOSE comics that Doctor Solar is a fictional character that the real Phil Seleski read when he was a ...

That Magnus destroying the Manowar armor is a great shot but that was Unity 2000 if I'm not mistaken. I can't give it too much credence
