Hello all,

I'm new to the board, but I was a huge Valiant fan in the early 90's (I jumped in around Unity, still an amazing series to go back and read). I was mainly a Batman and X-Men reader prior to that, and I dropped comics completely around the late 90's. Around 2 years ago I started slowly getting back into comics via the Marvel digital subscription, but I started to miss the feel and smell of a new comic (is that weird?). I heard Valiant had returned a few months ago, and after some eBay and Midtown comic searches I decided to fill in the missing issues of my old collection (LOVE the buy/sell section of the site btw :thumb: ). This of course led to me starting to collect the new series. I'm still catching up on everything that's happened since the restart (just finished Armor Hunters), but loving every issue.

Looking forward to getting to know the community.

Welcome to the boards. It's fun here as long as you steer clear of the Canadians like MarkRoseHFX.

Welcome! Same for me, I started with GI Joe in the late 80s, moved onto Spider-Man, x-men, batman, etc... Then discovered Valiant pre-unity and the rest was history!

Welcome aboard. My favorite part of the board (other than the great folks here) are the individual issue threads. It's fun to read a book, then come on here and discuss it. Oftentimes I end up re-reading after someone points out something I hadn't thought of. Good stuff.
