I'm out.....

Well the time has actually arrived. I'm out on Valiant (and probably comics altogether). It's been a possibility for quite some time...but with this lackluster 4001, I've had enough. The magic I was feeling around Armor Hunters has dissappated steadily. This rebooted A&A just doesn't hold a cand...

Re: Meeting JS June 9th... need input

1) Thoughts on the present comic market, and speculation on the future of the comic market. Can comics survive without cross promotion (ie movies, television); what will the market look like in ten or twenty years? 2) Are the marketing tools of the 90's (ie. Zero issues; incentive covers; variant co...

Re: I might be out on Valiant

Haven't bothered with Faith (just not my cuppa as a character) also didn't bother with A&A ( the artwork looked awful in previews and the writing in those previews just didn't hold a candle to FVL)...I find Ninjak boring, and have dropped EW ( it just goes nowhere)...bloodshot and XO are about a...

Re: Valiant Exclusive news in Bleeding Cool Magazine

read what? They had similar news on bleedingcool around Xmas, teasing the 2016 event 4001 AD; which included the dragon cover; though not large enough image to make out the armor looking thing; and blowing up the image made the picture distorted, now these new images defintely show some sort of armor.

Re: Does anybody want the Gold Key trinity back anymore

Yes, yes, resoundingly yes. Would love a new take on Turok in the Faraway. Wanna see robots and Magnus in the 4001 (a grittier version than the VH1 Magnus); not sure with Solar, but it would be a gateway into the VEI universe and allow for more exploration of the cultures and beings beyond the stars...

The Hangman #1 was awesome. Didn't really delve much into the namesake "hero"; but rather started off with a vignette of two criminals, but man what a scene that was. Hangman doesn't actually enter til the end. It was such a punch in the mouth issue, I picked up a few extra copies to give ...

Wow; I guess I'm in the minority on this one. As I expected after seeing the teaser images a couple weeks ago; the art was a disaster. Weird, but the flashback scenes with the renegades were spot on, but for 95% of the comic the art was distracting and awful. The story itself could have been interes...

This art is radically different from other Harbinger stuff; which is my point. The Barbinger books have to this point been "photorealistic" (it's comics, so the term isn't exactly right, but in the realm of comic art its apt).... Whereas this preview art is...Calvin and Hobbs ish. Comics a...

Actually, that fight hasn't took place yet. Issue #9 :D
My bad; I meant La Barbre, was looking ahead to Fitzy and Fakir. Wondering if Fitzy is tied into Fitzhugh (Silk's henchman)
