My relationship with Valiant

Post by jasoninca »

Well, I've been collecting comics for about 20 years now. I remember that when the Valiant stiff started to come out in the early 90s I was intrigued by it. But, perhaps since I was young at the time, I didn't appreciate it or understand it. So, I bought a few Valiant issues here and there in the 90s, and never really thought about Valiant after that. I was mainly a Marvel guy, with a huge X-Men addiction, and I followed some DC and Image stuff. Fast forward to 2012, I decided to reacquaint myself with Valiant because the relaunch titles were getting great reviews. Well, after completely loving the relaunch titles, I decided to look into getting some back issues of the original series. So, after much hard work, I tracked down and acquired all of the Pre-Unity stuff, and most all of the issues of each title after that (I'm a "completionist"). Now I have boxes of Valiant comics that I'm very proud of but I actually feel overwhelmed on the best place to begin. Anyway, I'm so excited about the future of Valiant and am glad that they are back in full swing. :)
