The 2021 story about Valiant counterfeit books...
As a follow-up to the discussion here: http://valiantfans.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=53786
I have an inside source who confirmed a crime was discovered related to early Valiant books, it was investigated, there was an arrest, but there were no counterfeit books involved.

Re: The 2021 story about Valiant counterfeit books...
Could this be a separate incident if no counterfeit books were involved? So, what was the crime if it was not counterfeiting?greg wrote: ↑Thu Apr 22, 2021 4:20:06 pm As a follow-up to the discussion here: http://valiantfans.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=53786

Was there a counterfeit Jim Shooter? That would explain a lot.

Re: The 2021 story about Valiant counterfeit books...
Holy *SQUEE*.. I love the china flag valiant logo! I think it's funny that Greg said it's all figured out without sources or specifics.. it's still up in the air until like September or October.. then we can talk about it more.
You forgot the drops of chinese children's blood on the cover, or something saying inked with the blood of chinese sweatshop children...

Re: The 2021 story about Valiant counterfeit books...
I mean, doesn’t “Made in China” say the same thing? Space on those labels is pretty tight. One must be economical with the use of space and wording.valiantdude wrote: ↑Fri May 21, 2021 12:48:11 pm Holy *SQUEE*.. I love the china flag valiant logo!
