Sounds cool, all the best with this dude! I can't get involved though as I'm going to be a Valiant Asia fan pretty soon so not going to be much use!

Dropped Fables about 6 months back and not really missed it, it's not been great for a LONG time. Shame really, I think they really lost their way when they lost the town as it was the heart of the book in a way.

I recently read Invincible #1 thanks to Comixology because people talk about it a lot here on the forum. It was mildly interesting but nothing special to me. Granted, I've only read a single issue, but I don't see why everyone thinks it's so great. :? It's not a one issue smash hit like all Image b...

At least read them...

One of the things that reeks of desperation most here is how they're throwing every villain they've got at this. It's like showing all your cards at once. Instead of these characters being introduced to the New 52 in an organic and natural way and making a big deal about them, they're just dropping...

Definitely. Might just as well buy an English issue, Tippex out all the text and then just write random letters in the bubbles instead - Instant Welsh.

Just tippex out all the vowels will do!

This was out of continuity.

I was thinking Ian what are you talking about!

Long day.

Nooooo a toffee one, boooooo!

Kickstarter is great for video games... but not so much for comics. The low price of titles doesn't really translate well to fundraising as you end up spending alot more due to postage etc. Also with so many ways of self-publishing - at a reasonable-ish price why would anyone need to kickstarter a c...

The single most desperate thing I have ever seen a comic book company do in 23 years of being a fan. Mark my words....this will be catastrophic for DC and they STILL won't take the top market share for the month this drops. This will burn out readers if the main titles that are getting villain book...

why is it desperate? The villains month has been announced a LONGGGGG time ago and has a clear thematic choice. Also by giving themselves such a long run in time they are able to continue the normal monthly stories so fans don't complain if they are cancelled for villain books. I feel you are givin...

See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum…and one night, one night they decide they don’t like living in an asylum any more. They decide they’re going to escape! So, like, they get up onto the roof, and there, just across the narrow gap, they see the rooftops of the town, stretching away i...

Massive piles scattered around the room generally...

Solar Man of the Atom Writer: Grant Morrison Artist: Ryan Ottley I know it's not currently Valiant but I'd like to see it back under the Valiant banner. With Morrison giving us some insane storylines and Ottley's beautiful space scenes... awww man I wanna see this now. Archer & Armstrong Writer...

That would be cool, well thought out

Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick y...

Read Revival #10. Still loving it, although this issue was a little uneventful - damn decompression. At least this book uses the slow pace for character development. For some reason yesterday, I started back up on TWD. Read from 55ish to 59. Can't figure out why I'm still reading it. It's such a bu...

I do wonder about peeps who claim 'I'm not a fan of Superman' it ususally comes down to the whole boy scout thing... but has he really been like that at all in the last 20+ years? There are some outstanding Superman (or Superman related) stories and you are just depriving yourself of some great read...

Dude if you consider that a spoiler don't go into the Valiant General Discussion section, they even tell you when the book is released or if one is coming...

He is somewhat recognised by DC these days. I think the tagline even says created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. Although I am sure he and his family have been screwed over cash as every other silver age creator was, don't really want another of those chats...
