ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

Welcome to the forums! This is one of the better fandoms out there, so enjoy!

Welcome aboard!

Now it’s my turn to comment this - wow, no one wants to discuss the new XO, eh? Timing is bad of course, with the pandemic and the self-isolating and all the shutdown/lockdown activity happening, etc. I’ve read the issue and I think it’s absolutely atrocious, and a disgraceful entry in the XO/Valia...

I've always viewed the term "floppies" as a pejorative that came around during the "wait for the trade!" era of BS. When you correlate the term with that era that it started being used, it's pretty clear that was pejorative marketing so as to leave a small queue in the minds of collectors during tha...

You forgot the "I didn't read any of this dreg" and the "I like pie" options in the poll....

So I finally sat down to watch this - the launch of the Valiant U on film and I think this can be kept pretty short. It's not a bad movie at all. But there was no way this flick, even in a good movie-going economy, was going to launch a Universe on film. It lacks iconic archetypes completely. It's a...

If you can think of one that’s a substitute for getting a haircut at a barbershop I’ll be your first customer! [emoji28] Clippers with the standard numbered attachments work great if you can live with short (or no) hair. Nah, I've never liked the shape of my head. I don't have that great, symmetric...

I'll keep my eyes peeled for ya too

Cool, thank you for that!

That's probably a Ben Mendhelson article. The guy is an extreme liberal idiot who writes a movie column for Forbes where he basically by default just takes any position that gives him the most extremely liberal edge or the most elitist perspective. If conservatives or fans in general hated The Last...

Didn't I read somewhere that Bad Idea expects more retailers to be added in the future, and when the new retailers are added, they want to be able to offer them the full line of books? If so, the print run of ENIAC #1 (and all early Bad Idea books) would need to have lots of extras built in for fut...

Hm, better word of mouth in this thread than in the other one here....
Greg, care to combine?

I haven't seen it yet, but I'd be less disappointed in a mediocre Bloodshot movie on it's own merits than I would be in having a mediocre Bloodshot movie not carry a planned Valiant franchise like it was supposed to. That's not an observation of quality - I haven't seen it. I'm just responding to wh...

LOL thanks man. To hell with that book! -immediately turns to comiclink looking for another copy-

Sooooo disappointed by this. I've waited for a 9.8 slab of this book to come to market for years now . This sale just wrapped up and I got sniped on it at the last second. I honestly can't believe what it sold for, but I chaulk this up to MCU speculation about Frankie Raye 1st and the Quantum bands ...

Thanks for your thoughts on these. They were nostalgia enough for me to be entertaining while also enough to keep me from having to re-read the Acclaim stuff which I basically never want to do again in my life.

Is Geoff Johns still a creative force there? He might not be bad as publisher or they should try and get Karen Burger back. Why they ever left her leave is beyond me. A guy I know is a huge GL fan - years of fandom, runs a GL forum, pro connections to the character - super fan. He has said that I g...

Yeahhhhhh that's right. I'm going to have to get there and do some box diving once I'm in the mood to dig bins again. I used to love doing it. Now I can't stand it. The last few times I dug through bargain bins I stopped after the second box and was like "ugh what am I doing ?". I think I'm at a poi...

Hi all, I’m new to the boards...longtime lurker though. I love Valiant books, they’re the only thing I’m currently collecting monthly. Liked the books in the 90s and really liked the relaunch. And the Valiant booth at C2e2 in the past was a destination. Last year, no one at Graham Crackers comics r...

Wow, sorry I didn't look at the date. Oh well...

Don't think that I was raggin' on you or being negative. It's just that it was honestly funny....

Anyone still collecting or looking for these? I am starting on these now. Anyone have any extras of the harder to get items? Now this is a thread worth resurrecting.... The Comics Greatest World stuff was something that filled a lot of forum time for years. I've got longboxes of the stuff still, bu...

Still have any of the CGW variants?

Resurrected nine year old thread!
Man, nine years later if O.P. still has any of those books he was trying to sell my jaw is gonna drop like the first dead chick in the Ring.

I just found out today that a dealer had an Iron Man book that I'd have been interested in. Had no idea it was there and hadn't even considered it. I just generally don't go to cons anymore. But this really sucks because had I known about that particular book I'd have shown up with like ten slabs to...

:rant: During the latter part of last year I was blocked from Mile High on eBay! I have never had any issues with Mile High Comics. I have sent much cash to Colorado over the decades. Never a negative customer service experience with Mile High Comics at all. However, shortly before the blocking, I ...
