I actually liked issue 1 better, as it was starting to set the tone, lines, and pace Issue 2 just felt all over the place, and with I believe only two more issues to go, I feel like the pacing of 2 was far too slow to actually go anywhere. Either this whole Hw2 will end up more of a cold war with li...

So I'm a newer poster/member on this forum, I am active on Facebook. I am trying to complete a master gold set, but some of these are not gold. Condition on some will matter as in nothing lower than a 9.6 others won't matter as much as they can be place holders until I can upgrade. I will update as...

I'm hoping this isn't the VH1 version purely because I haven't read any of the older stuff and will be more confused. Although this could motivate me to get reading so... :? Except for the last couple issues of Bloodshot V1 you can pick up back issues pretty cheap. I've been re-reading them on Comi...

Yeah, trying to think of the last comic Gilad showed up in myself...I mean, I'm assuming Wrath of EW came after Divinity (I don't remember years of when various books came out). Was Wrath of EW really the last thing he appeared in? Still, I liked how this issue pulled in several otherwise unused cha...

I think there’s a difference between a movie franchise and a cinematic universe. I think Bloodshot could be, and very well may become, a movie franchise. Maybe even combined with Harbinger, there could be 3-5 films. I am less enthusiastic about the prospects of a VALIANT Cinematic Universe that inc...

For many of the reasons people have already mentioned, the deck is slightly stacked against Valiant having a successful movie launch That said, there's a lot of variables that can and would make it a success First, is the script and writers. Look at super hero films like Batman Begins and Iron Man. ...

I see David Camp as possibly becoming the new Dr Eclipse in a way, at least in the same way you could say Divinity is the new Solar Man of the Atom. But obviously there's key differences between Solar and Divinity in the same way Camp is radically different from Eclipse. I'm not sure Eclipse would ...

Did XO have a arch-nemesis in VH1? I can really only recall the Spider Aliens which were more a group than one single character. I know there was Ax but I'm more thinking of someone more formidable in the original run. I realize Dr. Eclipse would probably not make sense in the new Valiant universe ...

I haven't sold any comics, but I do buy items on ebay occasionally for my collection

I personally feel they still are inconsistent I sent in an X-O #4 and A&A #0 from VH1 that had no discernible issues, both came back 9.6. I sent in a pink Harbinger #0 that I would have called a 9.2, maybe a 9.4 that had some slight spine roll to it, and it came back a 9.6, which was a very nic...

Very cool book, too bad I already have a couple copies, including a 9.8 One of the things I find the most disappointing about the CGC era of comic collecting is that signed comics not immediately slabbed and certified are basically devalued because they get that green label. I blame CGC and collect...

I actually think that there is a convincing villain hidden in the books, especially now that HW2 has started... Kris Hathaway. She has become a militant leader who believes that she is correct and is willing to use Peter Stanchek (not fully innocent himself) to achieve her goals. Also, Animalia cou...

VH1 Eternal Warrior #1 Rai #0 Harbinger #1 Unity #0 VEI (I think we often forget how good the zero issues from VEI are) X-O Manowar #1 (2012) X-O Manowar #5 Harbinger #0 Harbinger Wars #2 Bleeding Monk #0 Shadowman #0 Archer & Armstrong #3 Unity #1 X-O Manowar #1 (2017) Divinity #1 Armor Hunter...

So basically at this point neither Mirage or Q&W are happening that we know of after the snafu and take over Still could I guess, but if not, that's rather disappointing. I thought both would have made good shows. Though seeing how campy CW super hero shows become, I'd almost prefer they ink som...

One of the better issues so far for the new Shadowman series. Provides more revealing details about the Loa, but more importantly lays the ground work for a way to actually tame the Loa, and maybe we'll finally see the VEI version of Jack Boniface finally take control instead of always fighting agai...

I remember back in late 2016 there was talk about CW launching a show based on the new Dr. Mirage character from VEI. When searching for more info though, there doesn't appear to be anything since November 2016. Anyone else know, seen, or heard anything since then? Was curious on if this was still h...

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. For some reason I thought both had been killed off later on

I guess the only way to truly know would be to get input or comments from someone that actually submitted metal books and had them returned unslabbed. It's kind of the scientific approach to this one: We know there's slabbed copies, so it can and is done. Until we have an example where it was refuse...

You could always try having it pressed and re-slabbed, but as others have stated, there's obvious risks to that. Part of it would be to review or obtain the grading notes to see if there's any indication as to why the grade of 9.6. Look for any wear to the spine also for ticks, etc that break color ...

Checked my collection, unfortunately I don't have extras of any of these to help you. I do have extras of the first 4 or 5 issues of Harbingers for VH1 that are in probably F/VF condition. Otherwise most VH1 issues I have extras of were the unity books. I seem to have 2-3 copies of each issue of the...

VH1- Rai 0 and Harbinger 1. VEI- X-O Metal- Love it and it was the original metal. Eternal Warrior 5 (Mack Variant) I chose this based on the cover. When I have all my rare slabs displayed this one catches my eye first every time. Beautiful art. X-O 1 (2012) Icon and first VEI book. Just my opinion...

From my perspective, the Vine, Armor Hunters, or those bunch of bounty hunters in Matt Kindt's run don't count

I'd count the Armor Hunters....If they weren't all dead
