I NEED YOUR QUESTIONS for Cary Nord & Robert Venditti panel

Post by Carson »

The guys that put on NC Comicon asked me to moderate the Nord + Venditti panel. I'd love for you all to help me come up with questions. Post your questions here as I'll consolidate 'em into this first post.

Also, of course I'll ask a million Valiant related questions, but lets throw em a none and ask a few about pre-valiant work like surrogates and Conan. (What else?)

As a thank you, I'll record the panel and post it for the board!

Here's a few to get this brainstorm rolling:

Cary Nord pre-valiant questions:

Venditty pre-valiant questions:

How they got sucked in:
How did you become involved in the Valiant relaunch?
Did you read VH1 or VH2 back in the 90s? If yes, thoughts/memories?

X-O related questions:
Is Alexander destined to be the next Ken (Aric's best modern era friend that can't entirely be trusted)? How will the dynamic be different?
Did Aric teleport or just fly really fast to earth when he first donned the XO armor?
Will XO's ear grow back quickly because of the XO armor? (ninjak trimmed one ear with a throwing star)

Planet Death spoilers:
Will Aric make friends on the Vine home world. Something tells me he's not just going to kill everyone/everything.

Here's some more thoughts.

Nord:
Garbet's pencils are great, but we miss your pencils. How many issues/year can we look forward to from you going forward? Ever think you'll move on to other Valiant characters/titles? You're not allowed to go elsewhere :-P

Venditti:
Some of the best moments have been the quiet/introspective times, like when XO #5's first 6 pages (where Aric returns to the scene of his last Visigoth/Roman battle). I know you enjoy writing those moments, but we don't see them often. Who determines how much action/character development happens each issue? Is there a mandate, or is it up to the writer?

Both:
Any new characters cooking? The vine have been great so far. I look forward to those characters continuing to be fleshed out.

Any plans for XO #0 yet? Origin of shanhara? The last Vine to be chosen to wear the suit?

Teleportation? If not, how's he gonna get to the vine planet without losing another 1000 years by the time he returns to earth?

Did the boon come from the vine planet?

Venditti: Are the Vine plants themselves, or do they just worship plants? Or both?
