Valiant Solicits January 2019
For the first time that I can recall these weren't first posted to Newsarama. Maybe whatever exclusive they had was up?
Even lighter load of books than last month. Glad to see Tomas Giorello back on X-O Manowar!

Super light, and not a lot of new stuff. They have really changed Faith into a character that has very little excitement for me. I'm not super jazzed about the Bloodshot reboot either. Love that Shadowman continues.

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
Wasn't there meant to be a new #1 each month of 2019?
Super light month (5 books), I fear that this is the last Shadowman ongoing we'll be seeing (aside from his appearance in Incursion) as the pre-order ends at #11
Really not excited, the downward trend continues...
I'll be picking up:
Bloodshot Rising Spirit #3
Shadowman #11
I had hoped by this point we'd have a higher volume of comics being published, then again, Valiant still had some light months before DMG took over.

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
The Good:
Holy s*** Tomas Giorello is back on X-O! Yes!
Covers are all around sick as in January.
-Zonjic keeps killing it on Shadowman
-Oh my god that Massafera PRS cover is fire.
-Rocafort's X-O cover is the best he's done yet. S
-Special props to Michael Manomivibul's beautiful and evocative C cover. Seriously, if you haven't seen it and you happen to be reading this, do yourself a favor and check it out.
The Bad:
Still no Nadler/Thompson on Bloodshot. Very confused and disappointed in this whole situation.
Only five books again. I could have sworn DMG promised to have a new #1 every single month in 2019.

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
I think they stated there would be 12 #1 issues in 2019, not one per month. In some other thread I crunched the number 1 issues from previous years which on average had 14 to 16 #1 issues. That includes one-shots, annuals, etc.

Awesome! Man, I am so looking forward to that series. I had thought it was coming in January as well.jmatt wrote:My LCS came through with an ashcan!mkb28 wrote:When does "The Life and Death of Toyo Harada" come out?

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
Only 5 books...
The only one I’m honestly looking forward to out those 5 is Shadowman. I will be giving the Bloodshot & Livewire books a try, hopefully they’re good and I will stick with them.
Zero interest in Faith and now XO too - I really strongly dislike what Kindt has done to all of Aric’s supporting cast.

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
I'm also looking forward to seeing what the new BS and Livewire comics are like. Shadowman's been awesome to date, and despite a lot of contrary views on the board I've been loving Kindt's run on XO too. I really don't get what all the fuss is about with that comic, I've really enjoyed it I've only read Dreamside #1 to date, and that was a super slow starter, so I don't really have an opinion on the rest of the series yet.grendeljd wrote:Only 5 books...

Wow, I was thinking of getting these series back issues, since it had such a good rep here...sonicdan wrote:

Re: Valiant Solicits January 2019
Love the meme, hate another series biting the dust super early. I mean, from a TPB standpoint, I’m surprised they didn’t go to 12.sonicdan wrote:jaden_sai wrote:

Well I suppose it's great to know they have such a massive sales staff to sell, sell sell people on buying this handful of books.
