Re: Is NVU the new Offial Title of VH3?
Hey can we get a list of ACRONYMS and sticky it! I don't know what is meant by "VH1" (i keep thinking of the video music channel!) or VH2 or VH3. Let alone NVU! QR ? What's that? And if I didn't dig long or deep enough, APOLOGIES, just point me to the thread. Thanks! :thumb: OK I guess the...

Re: I was once lurking, but now am found
WOW! I've been thumbing thru the online cover gallery and it appears I missed a bunch of Valiant storylines. I remember latching on at the end of Unity, but a lot of overs after Chaos Effect don't look familiar. I remember Ninjak, Dr Mirage, PsiLords and The Visitor but that's all. Also i'm noticing...

Re: Shadowman, Shadowman. Wherefore art thou Shadowman?
Awesome news about Shadowman! One of my favorites!! The only thing I'm not too excited about is Ninjak. The character and book never interested me. My opinion: Ninjak should have never been old guard British heritage. Got my anti-imperialist blood boiling! Clearly he should have been Asian, but tha...

Re: Shadowman, Shadowman. Wherefore art thou Shadowman?
Seems he might be down & out, homeless. When that happens, a trench coat is your bed, blanket and shelter and being out on the street like that you learn to carry all your belongings with you. We're just speculating on a rough sketch. I have no real idea where this series will go. Let's leave it...

MORE of "MY VALIANT" Stream of Consciousness What I've always dug about Valiant was their characters were racially, culturally and temporally diverse without political pretensions. They're not all WASPy teenagers in NYC and the stories progress without getting mired down in heavy-handed ra...

Re: I was once lurking, but now am found
One thing's for sure, I gotta dig out my longboxes and review the Valiants I have. Things are kinda fuzzy in the days follows CHAOS EFFEVT and into the ACCLAIM buy-out and I just filed issues away without really reading them. Coming on late I never got the whole ETERNAL WARRIOR/ARCHER & ARMSTRON...

Re: Shadowman, Shadowman. Wherefore art thou Shadowman?
Actually I always thought Shadowman WAS "dark and gritty". New Orleans. Jazz musician. Dark arts and mysticism. Voodoo Loa. His origin is in a failed murder attempt on his life. He starts as crony of Darque! Storylines are gonna be even grittier in a post-Katrina N'awlins

Re: Shadowman, Shadowman. Wherefore art thou Shadowman?
Yeah, that's great to hear! I hadn't listened to all the podcasts and wondered about the other three titles in the winter launch. Eagerly awaiting the return of Master Darque as well!

Join me on this thread to urge, cajole, beg and threaten for a Shadowman title to join the Valiant relaunch!

I was once lurking, but now am found
It's great that the Valiant line is back! I had been so out of comics that I missed out on the first live run. I came in late (post Unity) and had to scrap for back issues in trade collections. I liked the solid writing and non-stereotypical superheroes. There always seem some mythic quality to thei...
