New Bound Comic

I am just getting into Valiant (and am WAY behind) but I bound the current run of X-O and thought I'd share. I am really liking the gold buckram on books and have been experimenting on colors of foil. I also experimented with mounting graphic images onto the spine. (I say experiment because I don't ...

16 Long Boxes For Sale - $1 an issue - free shipping over $2

Okay, if it is on the list and not somehow spoken for it is $1 an issue.
I will break up some of the big runs so if you only need an issue here or there of X-Men, that's fine. The small series' I'd rather keep together.
Bottom line, I'd like all of these comics gone, so make an offer, ask questions ...

New to Valiant - Sorry! - But X-O is great!

So, I am new to Valiant, so I apologize in advance. But I just re-read the first 3 issues of X-O and bought the next couple. Who knew Cary Nord was drawing Valiant! Who knew! I assume all of you knew.
But, I am happy to be discovering all of this. X-O is going well, and I have my next title picked ...

Re: New to Valiant

Welcome!

I don't think You can't go wrong with Archer and Armstrong and X-O, they are the best of the New in my opinion, followed then by everything else. :wink:

At this point I just want to get familiar with it all, so if I can't find the issues easily I will pick up the ...

We were able to schedule things so I was able ...
