ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

One year later a second copy of the book sold for $3,200. Does this make the Nintendo Sneak Preview the most expensive Valiant book or is that still the Bloodshot Platinum error? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-Comics-System-Sneak-Preview-RARE-9-8-CGC-1990-/284247087856?hash=item422e725af0%3Ag%3A...

Currently, at this very moment, the score is ValiantFans.com 1, Facebook 0.

This interview was published in PREVIEWS March and April 1992 (in case you need a source). I could scan the original pages, but there should be no differences to the unity-in.pdf file I created way back when. Sorry about that. The web server is "case-sensitive" and the file was actually stored as U...

Thanks guys! Unfortunately it does not ship to the US.

Send the seller a message, tell them you have a high eBay user rating (if you do). See if they will ship it.

My eBay account says I won't ship to Sweden, but I will when it's Magnus.

She/they obviously don't care about our tiny community. They think they can somehow make a more successful company by finding an entirely different audience, without us.

It definitely worked for Dynamite. Their versions of Solar, Magnus, and Turok are up to issue #100 by now, aren't they?

Which of us do you think has a stack of these? Or even two?

I have one... somewhere... and that's it.

Anybody else still here from before the board there was a Yahoo Groups valiant group, I'm thinking around 1999 or so. I think it was run by a guy named Barry Reese. If memory serves Sonicdan was there, Michael Sacal(mota) maybe, a guy named Ant'ny who was BloodofHeroes on here ages ago, he was a to...

I used to email the owner alot.. btw neither of the two sites were acclaim owned.. wild Wild early days of the internet, reminds me of waiting for the pages to load on Joe Petrilak's website trying to read THE Jim Shooter intervi...

Nice work, man. This is how you do it. Nice work.
I would scan your pages into a PDF file and send them to Greg and maybe they can be archived onto the site forever.

No need - it's done: http://valiantfan.com/valiant/u2k_5_script.pdf

Sorry about that. The web server is "case-sensitive" and the file was actually stored as UNITY-IN.pdf I've made a copy that's called unity-in.pdf so that it will pull up on the archive site now. http://valiantarchive.com/valiant/unityinterview.php (A direct link to the file is here: http://valiantar...

There has always been a worry in the back of my mind - "What if I got hit by a bus?" (or some equivalent) Life insurance takes care of my immediate family, and everything I own stays behind, but what about the 25 years I spent online? Would anything I worked to build for so long survive online? Woul...

I doubt if the prices can hold long-term, but I also believe that the current generation(s) of investors aren't interested in traditional investments. If I can put money into some stock which #1 might be a company that I use (Amazon, Google), or #2 it might be some company that I've never heard of t...

Interesting. I never thought these would be worth anything ever again.

You've clearly stated the foundation upon which most collectible empires are built.

I agree with IMJ - but I have to think that Bad Idea may be purposefully trying to live up to its name. With Valiant, Dinesh did just about everything right and ten years after monthly comics started he's no longer with the company and the monthly Valiant comics have slowed to a trickle. If doing ju...

If the CGC data API records and gives access to page quality we could ask Greg to run the numbers on this. Books from 1991-1993 with page quality not WHITE and grade >= 9.8.

No, the data that I have does not include page quality.

I was going to try to guess what company did those from memory. I could remember "National" and I wanted to say "National Something-Generic".

Catch-A-Star did several signed books (mostly comics, not trades), and a few of these "aftermarket signatures" even had commercials on HSN and QVC.

True, but the signed editions aren't Valiant products. They come from retailers/resellers who got artists/writers to sign later. The COAs mention the third-party companies.

The Diamond Previews Unity Trades (two volume) are official, but the others are not from Valiant.

Rai Valiant Era Solar has 2, Alpha & Omega and Second Death. If you're not collecting variants, that's all. Otherwise, there's a blue X-O, blue Rai, and Harbinger also has regular (black bird) and a 2nd printing. Unity also has the two-volume Diamond Previews set. Predator vs Magnus was a Dark Horse...
