Valiant announces new book THE BAD EGGS, about dinosaurs ?

[tell]

Didn't see that coming, is there any better info around?

CEO Dinesh Shamdasani then introduced an upcoming new book from Valiant called The Bad Eggs about two dinosaurs who live in a world where dinosaurs act like humans. From the sounds of things, this book could be really promising and funny.

Wasn't this an Acclaim title?

[tell]

It was acclaim, I guess VEI own that stuff too but I never thought about it.

So when Valiant was selling Icons, never was it sold as a re boot event. Soo I guess it was is a re boot.

Something seems off about this... This happened three days ago. Why isn't anyone else talking about? Usually CBR or Newsarama have something to say about new Valiant announcements, but I can't find anything.

Are we sure this wasn't a joke? Why would they announce a new book in the middle of Comic-Con, when it wouldn't turn any heads at all. Here's the actual quote:

So, Fred Van Lente suggested that “All the Marvel Universe characters should be dinosaurs.” Maybe he’s onto something there.

CEO Dinesh Shamdasani then introduced an upcoming new book from Valiant called The Bad Eggs about two dinosaurs who live in a world where dinosaurs act like humans. From the sounds of things, this book could be really promising and funny.

I'm sure they didn't mean 'reboot' in the same way that Marvel does. It's more of a change in direction. I mean, we're 4 books in (5, including Future Force), and I haven't really seen any evidence to suggest that this is a reboot.

In the broader sense, I think most of these titles could be considered reboots (Ninja-K, Eternity, Q&W, Kindt's X-O, Bloodshot Salvation), but I think it would be silly to put 'Icons' in the same category as DC Rebirth or Marvel NOW!

One of the worst written articles I have ever read.

Valiant is “not running towards” animation or going on TV. The team knows that everyone is going digital for their comics, which is a “net positive” for fans who can’t get physical copies.

WTF is this person smoking. I would love to see if Dinesh can confirm that their team believes that everyone is going digital for their comics.

Yeah I agree. Development of Bad Eggs, is 100% directed at a Tween/Young Adult TV animated series. It's the best thing the series has going for it. I'm actually surprised it took them this long to get to it. When I talked to Bob Layton at a ComicCon 5-ish years ago he thought Bad Eggs was a no-brainer.

(all IMHO, I know nothing)

This is interesting, many questions.

Was Dinesh just referring to DC and Marvel a dinosaurs?
If this is legit news, it must be a Ank tie in with Faith and The Future Force?

Shirtless bear Fighter from what I gather was a success. If this news is true it's reminiscent of the bear fighting stage. Cash in on the looncy

Dinesh tweeted a little while back (about an hour ago) saying "I guess we announced BAD EGGS? Maybe.... but probably not"

Think this is all rubbish

I always find it humorous when people take humor seriously.

I agree, I'm not sure this is real. The site is junk and so is the article, that's why I asked if anyone has any better info. I can't really figure out why it would be made up either though.

Everyone knows trinity angels is the next reboot.

[SuperMage]

Everyone knows trinity angels is the next reboot.

Trinity Angels, and Troublemakers really were teased during Book of Death on the behind the scenes whiteboard. They might really be the next book to launch next year.

Eventually Bad Eggs will probably make some kind of return, but there''s no telling if it will be an in name only reboot or the same concept. I doubt that it's coming next though. Grackle, Trinity Angels, Troublemakers, Gravediggers, etc. are all more likely to be reimagined first.

[jmatt]

I seriously doubt Bad Eggz is happening. They have much bigger fish to fry.

[ShadowTuga]

They could be harda** were-dinos who followed Savage to our world. And Ank, as pointed above, could actually be a cool connection.

Or not.

[Trenton Sy]

I enjoyed bad eggs when I was a teen - haven't read it in years though - don't think this is a thing right now but I agree it could be written to a Bob's Burgers type audience and be a success.

Savage II: Bad Eggs

Bad Eggs is one of the dumbest things I've ever read (no offense). I have to assume this is a joke.

[BugsySig]

Everyone is forgetting that Bad Eggs already made their VEI re-debut back on the pages of Ivar: Timewalker. It's already happened and you didn't even know it...boom! [drops mic]

[nycjadie]

Bad Eggs. A no brainer?

Im sure anything can be made to read smart. Even Bad Eggs.

Which issue?
