EXCLUSIVE: Writer Christos Gage Reveals Ninjak's Coalition in 'Ninja-K' #6
http://comicbook.com/comics/2018/01/18/ ... stos-gage/
that arc is called The Coalition, where Ninjak will form his own superteam in response to a group of Valiant's deadliest villains forming a team of their own.

So.... Kostiy the Deathless is in this arc.... As a bad guy? Did I read that right?

Yep, sign me up! Don't know how she fits in, but any usage of The Red Brigade I'm on board for!

Yes!

I almost made a post the other day asking which hardly seen characters we should see more of. This is exactly the type of thing I was hoping for.

Wonder why Valiant aren't marketing this superhero team-up as Unity...

Really looking forward to seeing some of the under used characters.

I had the same thought. Wish they'd bring Unity back proper.

Ninjak is teaming up with some of the mystical "Dead side" heroes to help him out... dallowspicer will be pleased we're veering back into the supernatural element again on this book! :lol: :kidaround:

Is it me or does it seem like VEI is shaping Ninjak to be the star of their universe? I mean, he's at the center of everything.

I don't know.. I mean, he's the star of the upcoming webserie and has a 4-part comic mini serie about the latter but besides that, I dont see what you mean by everything

Sure it's another announcement concerning him but, same goes for the other characters like the Vin diesel to play BloodShot ? And the X-O Comes back to earth in #14

He does come across to me like the Wolverine of the Valiant Universe, but he’s one of my favorite characters, so it doesn’t bother me at all...

I've thought that for a few years now but I'm okay with it as long as they keep putting out high quality stories.

Well, everything is an overstatement. But he shows up in so many other books.

Of course, he's got his own book. He had a role in the early X-O issues. And he's the star of NvtVU. But he also helped save the world from Stalinverse. He's integral to Unity and had a role in the early issues of Divinity. He helped free Shadowman in Deadside. He just saved Bloodshot. Now he's getting another team together.

I kinda like it because he's tying the VU together. I can't think of another character that is so ubiquitous.

I was never that big of a fan of Ninjak back in VH1. For VEI, the character is fantastic. I love the idea of anchoring part of the universe to his storylines.

That's what makes the Valiant universe so cool. I like when every story is interconnected. Every character plays a small part of a greater whole. They all know each other. Valiant should really think about making movies based on their characters. I'm sure they would be awesome.
