Hey everybody,

Very happy to find this group. A local Ottawa, Canada, Valiant fan told me about the site. I grew up reading Valiant comics but sold off my entire collection in the early 2000s for pretty much nothing :(

I've now got 2 kids and thought it would be fun to track down all the old comics I grew up with to read again with them (well my son anyways... not sure my daughter will be very into them but I'm going to try!). It's reignited my love of comics and I've started reading the new Valiant books as well (which are all pretty amazing).

Anyways, it's great to be here and with some fellow Valiant fanatics :)

Thanks everybody! :)

This site has proven to be a great resource already (took me a week to add all my books in the database). And Elveen, thanks for the generous offer! :)
