Re: SCHISM from DEFIANT - Kickstarter ft. Jim Shooter, David Lapham
They reached their goal, good for them.
It is good news for a project which has surely required massive effort to bring to fruition.
Although I never really read DEFIANT, I am backing the KS for the HC as it piqued my curiosity. :)

And do you understand that the point of VALIANT was to lean more toward one side than the other?
It's as I've asked you before, what is it that you want to see back from VH-1, the artistic renditions of the '90s VALIANT characters or the level of writing of the Pre-Unity comics?

Re: Valiant Beyond to be an Absolute Ultimate Valiant Universe Rebirth

Re: MASSIVE Valiant news
Okay.
I'll believe it if there are other corroborating sources, until then it doesn't ring true to me, simply because it appears clear that DMG is interested in movie-level money, not small comics publisher-level money, and if they are in financial trouble, comics money won't right that ship. I say ...

Supposedly, Acclaim's biggest seller was the comic with the two guys holding each other's privates in the restroom while shouting that they were not a couple, which is how we ended up with a goat on a first-name basis with the Legion of Super-Heroes.

Re: The Subversive Naming Conventions of Early Valiant Titles
How ironic that the actual Rai 0 depicts the creation of Rai "the Last".
Also ironic is that Rai 0 marks the point where Valiant goes from subversive, intelligent title naming to the cringiest of all titles, Rai and the Future Force facepalm
How the configuration of that title for a book ...

I'm not currently able to afford to buy comics. Money's been tight for a long time, and I'd rather not pirate them.

Inherent in any application of 'hard science fiction' as a descriptor is that there is least rigour applied to the science fiction presented; hand-waving alien armour as able to safely compress oxygen sufficient for activity for days upon end in space or to have near-limitless energy reserves is ...

My suggestion for a new ending for Unity 2000 would be to focus on the Phil Seleski D'arque visits at the Edgewater reactor and Loremaster, who I'd contend could be a split of Phil given his obsession with comic books.
