Sorry for the delay. Work and recent world events have been "insane" to say the least.

Thanks for posting these top 10s! I love them. Reminds me of the yesteryears of getting the recent copy of Wizard to see the top books. Magnus 5 was on the Wizard list for a long time and is what spurred my interest in Valiant. For your Unity 6 description, I don't believe a 1:50 Unity 4 exists. Am I mistaken? And speaking of grails, I predict we will have 2 new entries next month.

Unity 6 is the surprise for me. Such a great book.

Bloodshot Reborn 1 is also a surprise. I love that book BTW.

Hopefully the Bloodshot movie is a positive and keeps those books’ sales alive. I’ve got my tickets for Thursday the 12th! :hope: :-| :hope: :hope: :hope:
