I just have to say I hate the Ninja-_ concept. Stupid Kind-t, Unit-Y *SQUEE*.

Towards the conclusion of 2018, comic book readers were guaranteed a significant breakthrough from Valiant Entertainment. More specifically, they were promised a line-up of four, boundary-shattering new series to propel the Valiant Universe into a bold new era.
This does not feel innovative, significant, or boundary shattering. Feels like Ninja-K 2. That doesn't mean I won't like it, but the hype and hyperbole is so underwhelming that I will probably tune out similar statements in the future.

It must be March. Dick Vitale has ruined this month.

Hmm. Not sure what’s the problem here for the naysayers. More Jothikumar character sketches and Bollers gives a lackluster editor interview: can’t be that as none of it will appear in the final product. The promo for Breakthrough included the mug shots of A, E, and K, so more Ninja-K was entirely expected. This is B Clay Moore! More Ninja-G! (albeit an older Ninja-G) I cannot wait for this!

Oh, and you guys will not be needing those silly Kindt Ninjak and Unity variants, or those rotten Gage Ninja-K variants anymore. I hope you guys can give me the heads up on that for sale thread, as I’d really like to get a jump on them. (Heh!)

I agree wit Ninja-G, let's hope the homework was done here, and we don't get a young Ninja-G (as it looked in the art).

Maybe Ninja-F with his poncho and laceless gym shoes can join that ginger twink from Psi-Lords and open up a coffee/skate shop.

"We’ve got a great new colorful cast of characters here"

sigh. I just don't care.
Howabout tell a story with all the great characters you guys already have. Where's Savage, Deathmate, Magic, Bloodhound, Archer, Armstrong, The Renegades, Solomon, Alpha, Divinity, etc?
