HAHAHA!

I love the cover to issue #2 too!

just... wow.

now where did the wife put that batgirl cotume?

So, just to be clear...we DON'T want Porn Stars and a Booty Call?

<Issue 2 of Oracle: The Cure comes out Wednesday>

And we DON'T want subliminal advertising ?

<Hot Sex>

(For those of you old enough to remember Kevin Nealon on SNL doing the subliminal advertising bit...)

Thanks for all ...

I need to get busy with mine:

Some of the coolest things I've seen in a long while.

Awesome!

Master Darque and Darque Passenges were great and I perfer the Accliam version over the Valiant version.

I agree completely. The VH/2 version of Darque was just a more complex character overall. Especially when you add in the ties to the Forever Family.

It's nice to see some VH/2 love around ...

wow. awesome work! makes me want to get back in the hobby.

YES! And Vokes is such a nice guy.
I really dig his style.

BloodOfHeroes wrote:VH-2 was an alternate universe.

And it was a pretty d@mned sweet one, at that.

It just wasn't VALIANT. But it never claimed to be, either.

Bloodshot vs X-O was wicked!

Do NOT get me started on Unity 2000 (and Starlin is among my favorite artists but THIS series... ugh, IMO this is something that should have never been printed, sorry to say).

The whole project just seemed phoned in to me. The art was *horrible*!!!
But that is another rant.

VH2 was darn good ...

Wow, I didn't know that typing "V-H-1" and "V-H-2" on the boards resulted in them being presented as VH1 and VH2.

What happens if type "U2K" is it replaced with *SQUEE*?

My appreciation for the VH2 stuff is pretty well known. Mind you, I'm not necessarily a fan of it in place of VH1, but let's face it, VH1 was pretty crappy at the end there.

A fresh take was a good thing (especially since there were plans to bring VH1 back into the fold - some of it at least ...

It's already been sent. I got to the PO just in time.
Incidentally, I have an ally over at DC who's lobbying to get me some painted cover work - Rags Morales! He's shown some of my stuff to Eddie Berganza, who has a project coming up that I might have a chance to work on. It's not in the fan press ...

really? the prices on these Acclaim books are that high?
Wow. Now I'm really glad I got my books back.

Ha! those people at the LCS aren't laughing and telling me I wasted my money on Acclaim books now!

Are we talking a complete run? Variants and all.

Complete as in one of every issue, with variants on all the VH2 stuff and many of the VH1 stuff as well. Not all of the gold books, but several.

But certainly a complete reading of all the issues/story lines. I'm actually kind of stoked to have ...

I found the best Valiant deals *ever* this weekend.
While perusing a local used bookstore I found a copy of Magnus #25 for 25 cents. Great for use in the baby room decorating project.

I then brokered a deal for a complete run of VH1 and VH2/3 (and a batman animated series run) for the unbelievable ...

What if the fictional character of Layton said that on the fictional message board within the real VALIANT universe?
Dang, my head hurts...

Zip it, you.

whaaaaat?

anyway, that looks like Armstrong to me.

over the years I think I've had 3 complete runs of all the VH1 stuff (i didn't go for the premiums. Had a few, but mostly cared for the story lines).

Had a complete set of VH2/3 as well.

each time I'd sell/give away/lose a set in a move, I would eventually come back and end up buying another set ...

Thanks again.
I can't believe how quick the response was!

Let me know and I will scan at the resolution you need.

600 dpi would be wonderful. Thank you!

It's been a while, but I'm still around reading a few posts every now and again.

I've got a request for those of you that have easy access to physical copies of your Valiants.

I need high resolution scans of the covers to Magnus Robot Fighter #0, and Vintage Magnus Robot Fighter #1.

Anyone ...

When Unity 2000 #2 came out and people saw the panel of Phil holding a copy of VALIANT's Solar Man of The Atom #1, the belief at the time was that Omar, the editor, had screwed up and scanned the wrong comic in place of a copy of Gold Key's Doctor Solar Man of The Atom #15... but what if it wasn't ...
