ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

Wow, it’s been close to TEN years since I last posted in this thread!! I saw ShadowTuga mention Hollow Knight above and I had to chime in - I love that game!!! I have not really had time to indulge in very many new games over the past decade, but I can probably add 5 new ones that I have enjoyed imm...

John Byrne cover!

Yup

It doesn’t feel like it’s really happening. Never in my wildest dreams was I expecting to be able to get such a thing!

I’ll share here when I complete the layaway and have it in hand

I find myself drifting away from collecting very many comics lately - for new books, I am mainly picking up just a few Image titles. Still reading new Shadowman but generally not excited about new Valiant. The only DC book I like right now is “The Nice House On The Lake”, which I think is only a min...

I'm still on the fence about trying this one. I can do without derivative crap... but you're kinda piquing my interest if theres actual VALIANT universe Spider Aliens making their VEI/VMG era debut!

Glad I skipped this one. Didn't look appealing to me anyways.

Yes, that promo piece is by interior artist Jon Davis-Hunt (he also did the colors on this piece, but the colors on interiors will be by Jordie Bellaire) and no, this was not intended to be a Punisher homage... just something that lives up to the promise of the title! Well, make sure this will be o...

Very cool.

Only 17% for XO?? Just look at that art!

You people are insane

I am looking at that art, and that is exactly why I’m not very keen on XO this time around.

The poll is closed? Is that how polls work around here now? I am looking forward to Book Of Shadows above all else on the list. Shadowman is still the only current Valiant title that I enjoy and pick up every month. More of the same (or better)? Yes please! Hoping for a good A&A series too, I really...

You’ve now been immortalized on a comic cover by BOB HALL!! That’s so cool, man!

Looks great and reads well!

Is any of that material making it into your contributions to the Overstreet Lost Universe book coming out this month?

Also, I’m mildly surprised that RAI #0 or Eternal Warrior #4 didn’t quite make that list of most commonly submitted CGC issues!

I’m interested and will definitely give this a chance - although it always makes me groan when the high concept of a “fresh take” on an established series involves taking away a key piece of the high concept and acting like that’s going to be something clever. Kind of like the Matt Kindt take on XO ...

That JG Jones Bloodshot cover was sorely tempting to me (I love that artwork!!), but out of my range at the moment.

Great piece, Juki!! That original looks even better than the published colour version - I appreciate the effect they were going for by inverting the colours on the line work of the creatures and all that, but it’s very cool to see the ink work on them in that original. :thumb: :thumb: :clap: It is ...

Finally made time to read this latest issue. I enjoyed it well enough - I’m interested in seeing where this ‘Deadside Loa’ concept goes. A Loa that seems to draw its power from the souls of the multitudes of every single entity that inhabits it is a very powerful being, indeed - and that is a pretty...

Great piece, Juki!!

I have absolutely zero interest in this one.

It's been crickets. I'm very much looking forward to it.

I’m looking forward to this one too, I hope they still plan on releasing it.

I recently acquired the last Amazing Spider-Man *softcover* Masterworks trade that I was missing to complete the set of 8 (I much prefer the soft covers rather than the hardcover MM editions). While I wish they had continued making more of those, it’s enough to kick off a massive read-a-thon that I’...

Thanks man. Any chance you (or anyone) can help me crack the mystery to uploading some photos?

I use the Tapatalk app to post photos here through my iPhone. It seems to be the simplest and most effective solution for me.

I still love VALIANT too! :high-five: There’s too much cool stuff published over the entire course of their history - I may not be as keen on the current state of affairs, but that doesn’t diminish my love for all the great stuff from the last. And while I’m only reading Shadowman currently, (and I ...

Nice interview! Pedro has some infectious enthusiasm for this story arc - and the more I see teases of his art, the more excited I am getting to read this one. He is drawing some great stuff on the book!

Definitely looking forward to checking out these books, man! Long time coming, but from all I’ve seen over the time you’ve been developing them, they look to be well worth the wait.

The first couple of pages they included from me are in the preview PDF (pages 524, 525). They're from my www.Valiant101.com site. :thumb: That is just perfect that you contributed material to the book for the Valiant section, Greg! It’s pretty cool that so many members from here have made contribut...

Congrats on getting that ASM #194! Glad to hear you’re still picking away at your collection (even if this one was a gift!). I just nabbed a copy of ASM #210 at my LCS today that was in great shape - looks to be about a 9-9.2! I think I mentioned elsewhere recently that I was aggravated by the specu...
