Be afraid, be very afraid of what might be coming down the line next from one of Heather’s clique!
I'm not entirely sure what Antos' function is at Valiant, but she's only edited on book, and that's Livewire.

She seems to involved in attracting some of the ‘talent’ that we end up having to endure on books? Or else why would she be pumping up what’s been ‘green lit’?

I don't know. :? I was just pointing out that her name's only been on one book, which I find interesting.

That is odd if her sole purpose is to edit one solitary book which is ending soon.

Did I read that right? Did they say there was going to be an ongoing involving Punk Mambo? I thought a mini was enough
that includes new series for Harbinger, Ninjak, Shadowman, Punk Mambo and Savage.
Yep, some form of new series.

Only time will tell, and we are yet to have any idea on creative teams for most of these, but we are at least getting back to most of the VALIANT tentpole titles. That’s a start for us fans, but will also be good as the Bloodshot film draws potential new fans. You want them to see the big names not random character minis.

I'm pretty sure a few of the upcoming ones are hers.

The writer is a former editor for Marvel and Valiant! :?

The helmet design is to similar to Divinity for my taste. But the writer just assured me on Twitter, that it won’t last long. The helmet that is... :thumb:

Editor turned writer can work but often does not. Do we know why he is a former editor at Valiant? Was it by choice?

Oh yes I remember him, another 5 minute wonder! Has he written anything before or is he using Valiant to practice on?!?
This doesn’t inspire confidence that the current regime have learned any lessons from 2019 :?

He was the editor on the 2013 run of Shadowman. I think he was one of the main editors under Warren during the first few years. Not sure how he's a "5 minute wonder" unless we're just putting a negative spin on everything for no reason. Oh wait, we are.

Not really, if he was there for a reasonable tenure then I stand corrected but I don’t recall him being there for that long but if he was then he was!

We're talking about Alejandro Arbona, here, right? I recognized his name from a editor's note in Goat #0 (in QW Vol 3)

Yeah he was one of the first assistant editors under warren, I believe, when they started expanding beyond 4-5 books.
