ValiantFans.com Board - Since 2004

Today's Valiant Sunday is a chat with Bat in the Sun's Aaron Schoenke about the upcoming web series. A couple things before you listen. We didn't grill Aaron on the long delays or why it took so long. I know many of you want to know the answers to these questions and I am curious myself. However, Aa...

Anyway ... a few thoughts about the three points you made above. 3) Caylo is a marketing guy, you are right he did promote a ton of books at Boom! while he was there because Boom! was putting out a ton of books. Keep in mind they scaled back massively from those 39 books once the realized that they...

I didn't say tub ... i said floor.

You better get it together!

Juki wrote:So...Which questions did you use?...and how can we find out the responses?

You listen to the podcast when it comes out ....

I mean, you do listen to the Valiant Sunday podcast every week right?

RIGHT???

RIGHT!?!?!?!?!


OK then.

Never say never, but I would find it highly unlikely that Jim Shooter would work with Valiant again. He screwed them and was looking out for himself. I doubt they would trust him to bring him on, plus it has been so long since Shooter was relevant or had people who wanted to work with him. I know p...

Interview was great ... thanks for the input all.

3) Mel Caylo is now at Valiant/DMG after being Marketing Manager for BOOM! Studios - which has four different imprints - and features 39 different series on their website: http://www.boom-studios.com/SERIES/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Clearly, the expansion beyond 8 or...

I'm fine with all these things. Especially with Mel Caylo expanding the publishing line. Valiant should consider an imprint focusing on licensed titles. Maybe a VH-1 imprint to? DMG could buy back the Gold Key characters if they felt like it, they have the cash. They could hire Jim Shooter to launc...

Wow these are some great questions guys. You are making my job easy.

Hey guys! I am interviewing Aaron Schoenke tomorrow for this week's Valiant Sunday Podcast. I thought it might be fun if I choose a couple question for board members to ask him about. So if you have a question for Aaron please submit below and I may use it for the interview. There's about a 24 hour ...

Can I sleep on your floor?

Glad to have you back!

This is exactly what I suspected when it was announced at C2E2 that his role at LionForge had been taking over by the LionForge Founders. Did I mention him in the Valiant Sunday podcast? Can't remember.

Quotes from Newsarama's coverage on C2E2 Fan Q: When's Rai coming back? Freeman said they're working on a new series, with Boller adding that "Rai is on the Horizon." Freeman: i think what we've said over and over - we have 6 to 8 tiles we put out every month. We're always developing more...

I was literally sitting in the Valiant HWII panel today at C2E2 listening to Matt Kindt talk when one of the Valiant artists that I'm friends with texted me and told me about Warren. It was a bit surreal and the irony was palpable. During the Q&A at the end everyone was asking garbage like &quo...

For your listening enjoyment DBS and I did a deep dive on Eternity. The trade paperback comes out this Wednesday so we decided to talk about some of the BIG ideas in the book.

Hunter was a MASSIVE part of what Valiant did. The OG group at Valiant was: Dino, Warren, Fred, Hunter, and Atom. Dude is a great homie. I'm sure he will be great at whatever he does next. The simple fact is Valiant would not be where is is today without Hunter. His contributions from the marketing...

Wasn't he at the poker game last year?
