Re: Valiant fan Scott Sahle (doodlebird) had a stroke - his family is selling his books

There will be some ebay sales here coming up this weekend (Sunday - Sunday), if I can remember, I will post them here. Thinking Greg walked away with a prize the other day, such a great pick-up on that X-O #25 variant! Think a simple cleaning/press makes that book a 9.8!

Re: Book of the Month - April thru August 2020

That X-O Manowar story from Dysart... Such a good one-shot! All the feels of a Dysart book, has to be #1

I've been really enjoying the Rai story, it's been very solid. His internal conflict between AI and Human is intriguing.

Re: CGC White "THE FUTURE OF VALIANT" Custom Label

It costs an extra $5 bucks to get when submitting and I thought that I read that the labels were going to be limited to a number of 500 case applications when they first came out 2 or 3 years ago. Like a “limited edition” kind of thing although I can’t find any current info. However, it seems like ...

Re: Rarest Bloodshot Comic book?

About all I know regarding this book, is that these books were beat up when sent out. Very few shipped with care, so the one or two 9.8's will sell for a pretty penny. No clue about print run, except whatever it might have been, they sold out. Again though, they were beat up when shipped, so if that...

Well, I just joined the 1:40 club. This arrived today along with the 1:20 #4. Given the popularity of the book, I didn’t think I was going to own one, much less one signed by Ryan Winn and David Baron in 9.8. Think what you want but I don’t care that it’s a green label. I’m very happy. https://uplo...

From what I can remember, Valiant had a CGC witness at the time, and they worked out a deal with CGC that they could be signed and stamped (I think they were stamped), and sent out to the retailers and would be accepted by CGC up until a specific date. All books that were produced were signed and wi...

Re: DBS's 100% CONFIRMED "Rare" Print Run Info

I'd add the X-O Manowar Humble Bundle "Unsigned" to your list. While we don't have a print run number on those, you can check CGC and see that there are two blue lable and two sig series (yellow label) that are out there.

They exist.

I think Abnett just gets Valiant. He understands that continuity has its place, and just how important it is for all of the Valiant characters. Maybe that's why there are a good amount of people that have enjoyed this Rai series, he just gets continuity. Seeing Abnett on a Ninjak book, or something ...

Speaking of coolness of cover.... your honorable mention.... X-O Manowar 1:50 (first Capshaw) is off the chain cover cool. It is hard to argue your top ten order. As a matter of opinion, I think Britannia #1 1:50 may be a little too high.... but time will tell. I noticed that there are now 11 CGC 9...

I actually enjoy them, think they look sharp. I know that they can't be used on Signature Series (wish that label was yellow, like regular sig series), but vs the blue, I think they look really sharp, and catch the eye.
