ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

I've been keeping up with the comics but haven't had time to sketch for fun (or post about the comics here) until I caught the "Everyone's a winner" tweet so I banged this out at lunch. It's a bit of a mess to be honest!

I've been stupidly out of the loop due to other interests for ages. I hope you guys will continue to post your entries here. It's fun to see what people are coming up with even if I can't find the time to sketch!

This title is easily my favorite of the new run. Each issue has been stronger than the last. I have to say that I was pleased with the art much more than the last issue. Last month's just wasn't my style I guess, but this one is right back on track. Story-wise, I think the pacing has been pretty ...

With all the hype about this cover, I believe making it a 1:125 (Or whatever hard to get ratio they've established) is really poor planning on Valiant's part. They were even advertising it in the latest Valiant Voice e-mail. To know that people are going to see that and go to their shops asking for ...

Hmm...I had all three X-O covers in my pull with the Zircher cover bagged and boarded with a $20 sticker price. I don't usually expect to see the tougher variants in my pull, so I bought it. I'm glad it wasn't more than what I paid after getting home and reading this thread. I'll be having a chat ...

Went to the shop on Saturday and they had the variant waiting for me as promised.

My shop in VA didn't get them, but said they put in a re-order and expect them on Friday. I'll probably not get over there until the weekend, but it didn't sound like it was going to be hard for them to get them.

Fun read, but was it just me or did they switch the two women in the last page when they made their introductions?

I believe congrats are in order for MarrowMan as the winner last Friday!

I've been slammed and haven't been able to focus on sketching anything new. Maybe I can carve out some time this week...We'll see.

I like this one, teedot! Is RAI wearing a 'varant' see-through pair of pants? Sexy...

HA! I usually ink over my drawings for fan art Friday, but I didn't have time as I sketched that on a break at work...I guess Rai raided Mothergod's closet in the Lost Land!

And Rai from today:



As you can see...I don't play with the computer much for art like this. I use it enough everyday for work so I'd rather sketch with a pencil!

Two this time as I forgot to upload the one from two weeks ago. First is X-O:

Also, I hope all the rest of you guys drawing stuff around here keep it up and post to this thread - SonicDan you need to post some here, your's are great!, orbitalshift, teedot42 & BTE.

I don't need to prompt Dr. Solar, Marrowman, MarkRoseHFX, or missjay - you're all chipping in quite regularly ...

My entry for today:

I gave a friend of mine all of the current VEI issues to read and then asked him which was his favorite. He liked Bloodshot the best, which was what I expected him to say just knowing his personality, but said that the main issue he had with X-O was that the pacing seemed too slow. I didn't offer up ...

Please no. Also, I would be more than okay if they did not even include all of the pre-Acclaim books in the line-up either. It just dilutes the quality to have so many titles and it was one of the things that killed VH1.

This is where I'm falling as well. While I know they are in the business to ...

I was about to call shenanigans on the sketch from Patch! It's fun to see the Valiant artists getting involved with we rookies though. The Fan Art Fridays are making me break out the pens, which is cool because I don't sketch enough anymore. Here was my entry:

Grats ...

Here was my try at this week's Fan Art Friday contest: Master Darque's a pretty sharp dresser.



Grats to the winners!

Harbinger for me. I love the more serious tone right out of gate and of all of the books so far. It's the one I'm most looking forward to each month.

Only have Harbinger 0 Pink to go to wrap up this part of my collection.

I'm also looking for Archer and Armstrong 5, 6, 7 and Eternal Warrior 3 to fill gaps.

I'm not concerned with getting them graded, but I'd prefer issues in ~NM condition. If you've got em, let me know so we can haggle!

I've been reading the boards (er lurking) for little while now so I suppose post No. 1 should be my origin story as it were:

I was in high school in 1992-3 reading the usual: X-men, Batman, Spider Man, etc. and the local comic shop had a copy of Unity 0 near the counter so I grabbed one as I was ...
