awesome work!! this is an amazing way to promote the company!!
Thanks Jake, it has been a lot of fun. I am so glad to have found some great libraries that were willing to put the books into their collections!
We are really happy and glad to have the support of Valiant and Valiant fans on this! The library (and Sanders of course) exposed me to a lot of different titles when I first started really getting into comics. It's great to give back.

Awesome seeing them off the shelves and checked out!

Thanks man! It feels so great to see the books on shelves and checked out!

Jay had a great time seeing her art in a Valiant book too. The shop near us only had two copies so I was glad to snag one!
I still can't believe it! I am super happy that Valiant wanted it! Was so excited, I don't think I "@" them when I tweeted and I'm too shy to do it now!

You're also not on Twitter, duh.

Don't worry, I made sure to retweet & comment, including the @ValiantComics tag :wink: :thumb:

And very well done, once again, with the library trades program guys. Tremendously good idea to help promote Valiant. :clap: :clap:

Today we went to The Burbank library to donate 15 more. The librarian won't be back until next week, but we left them there along with our information and we will call to check on them when she returns.

This library is very special to us because it is where we first started scouring the graphic novel section in 2008 and soaking up series like Fables, The Walking Dead, Ex Machina, Preacher, Sandman, Tom Strong, and Y- The last man. We never knew that we could find all of those there! That kept us pretty busy up until the Summer of Valiant, but we have be major library readers ever since.

We are so glad that we were able to get these books to this library that means to much to us!

In the area that we live there are these small little community libraries along the sidewalk. But there was something wrong when I looked at what they offered... :?

Image

There! That's better :)

The reason that I took a few of them here was that libraries usually don't accept stamped books, but I had a few that I had already stamped before knowing this. Bobby, Christian, Jake, Greg and CKB your books are finally out in the wild!
