Re: VH1 Eternal Warrior: Any good?

As most here have said, the early EW issues are a great read, but after the Chaos Effect, it's starts to slip in quality. But, then again, the entire company started going downhill, as well. Company-wide, you can really see the focus shift from amazing storytelling being the priority to the artwork ...

Looking for: Pre-Unity Magnus & Rai issues (reading copies)

Hey gang,

I'm just getting my GF into VH1 and I'm looking for cheap reading copies! The only pre-unity issues I need to get are:

Magnus, Robot Fighter #: 0 - 14 & Rai #: 1 - 5, 8

If anyone could help at realistic prices, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Re: Case of 200 Valiant Comics

You know, it's your money and please feel free to do with it as you please, but why on earth would you buy a case of 200 issues of the same comic? I asked myself the same question. I guess it boils down to my love for the original Valiant Universe's "future" tiles Magnus & Rai. Valian...

Case of 200 Valiant Comics

Valiant Ones, I just figured I'd share a cool recent find. I stumbled across a case of 200 Valiant Comics at an auction. It is a case of "Rai and the Future Force" #9. I get the feeling there's not much love for the Future Force around here, lol. I happen to enjoy the Malev War storyline, ...

Re: Most wanted Shadowman merch/collectibles/etc.?

I'd like to see some proper Jack Boniface Shadowman Mask replicas. The original mask and the later one would be great!

Other than that, Action Figures! What happened to those action figures they showed a few years back - Shadoman and Boodshot?

Re: Who created the character of Spylocke?

Yes, I very much enjoyed the character of Spylocke, who was a mystery for most of the run of Rai. Then, he was revealed to be a Spider Alien, yet Rai still protected and trusted him. He said that Rai was the only human he could ever call a friend and trained Rai's son in combat. He is an intriguing ...

He was genetically engineered to have the appearance of an african american human. That's how.

Who created the character of Spylocke?

Valiant Ones, I realize that most of you abhor the Future Force, but as I was re-reading some old issues of Rai, I wondered who created this character? Was is John Ostrander (who first wrote him in Rai #9) or someone else? Does anyone have any idea who decided to put an african american spider alien...

Re: Speculation On New Rai

We definitely need him to be based off the original Rai design. White skin with black accents with the Bloodshot circle on his chest. Hopefully, they retain some of the "Grandmother" aspect in the stories, the sentient computerthat runs Japan. The bigger question I have is why does this ne...

Re: Valiant Masters: Rai HC question

Yes, the Rai flip books are basically a long Magnus: Robot Fighter story arc featuring Rai in a wonderful story where Magnus journeys to Japan. Solar features, as well.

Re: Eternal Warrior leather jacket ideas

Yes, the second example is much easier to duplicate than the stitched version, althought the stitched version is my favorite! I wonder if you could be creative enough to make the shotgun shell holder detachable? Maybe snaps to hold it to the actual sleeve. Every 4 inches or so? Now, THIS is a great ...

Re: Eternal Warrior leather jacket ideas

I would reinforce the glove, for sure. Looking over the gloves features carefully, we can clearly see 2 rows of spikes and 3 or 4 (depending on the artist), rows of small claws/spikes, along with 2 straps to cinch the wrist cuff. It doesn't look like TOO tough a project. The hardest part will be fin...
