The monthly issues of Rai are published in clusters, comporting with Clayton Crain's art production schedule (as I recall). His style is a HUGE part of the reading experience of the VEI Rai--like Fiona Staples' work on Saga, or O'Neill's on The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

I like what he's done with him in Unity (Just read the first volume of Unity a couple of days ago too). I apologize if i'm annoying anybody with my questions. I don't have many comics friends to talk to about books, even less to talk to about Valiant.

No need to apologize for your questions! I really like Kindt's work most of the time. I've enjoyed Unity from issue #1 to present, and think Rai is one of the best books going. And his Ninjak is excellent as well. If you're a fan of Kindt's writing you should check out everything he's doing in the Valiant universe.

I'm starting to. I need to read more Unity. I just ordered Shadowman end times and XO vol 5. After that i'll load up on more unity and Ninjak.
