[magnus20009]

I would add:

HARBINGER DELUXE EDITION VOL. 1 2nd Print
QUANTUM AND WOODY DELUXE EDITION BOOK ONE - 2nd Print
X-O MANOWAR DELUXE EDITION VOL. 1 - 2nd Print

Note the Q&A second print has a different cover from the first print. For the Harbinger and X-O Manowar second prints they changed the countries they were printed in.

On Sunlight on Snow's list I would note the signed and numbered to 100 copies are 100% the same as the normal HCs just they have a page glued in for signatures. I don't consider them different from the regular HCs.

[magnus20009]

This is what the glued in page looks like (from My Bloodshot 1 Deluxe)

[Sunlight on Snow]

HARBINGER DELUXE EDITION VOL. 1 2nd Print
QUANTUM AND WOODY DELUXE EDITION BOOK ONE - 2nd Print
X-O MANOWAR DELUXE EDITION VOL. 1 - 2nd Print

Yes, yes, I keep forgetting some DLX ED's have 2nd printings, too. Thx.

Hehe, you didn't notice I also forgot the 2nd print of the Complete Divinity Trilogy.

On Sunlight on Snow's list I would note the signed and numbered to 100 copies are 100% the same as the normal HCs just they have a page glued in for signatures. I don't consider them different from the regular HCs.

Of course, they are otherwise 100% identical but there's still that extra page with the blurb, numbers and signatures.

Also, when I added the 2nd print for X-O, I saw I put "100 copies" instead of "500" next to XO's signed edition. Copy & paste error.

[Sunlight on Snow]

Thank you very much, greatly appreciated.

[Sunlight on Snow]

There's also a hardcover edition of the Hero's Initiative "Bloodshot 50 Project."

It collects those 54 (I think!) sketch covers and reprints the actual blank cover as well as Bloodshot (2012) #1 (without its cover).

I'm gonna add it to the list as well...

[nycjadie]

I didn’t know Divinity had a 2nd print. I’ll need to check my copy!

[Sunlight on Snow]

I didn’t know Divinity had a 2nd print. I’ll need to check my copy!

I believe the First Printing of the Trilogy hardcover sold out very quickly.

[magnus20009]

Yes, yes, I keep forgetting some DLX ED's have 2nd printings, too. Thx.

Hehe, you didn't notice I also forgot the 2nd print of the Complete Divinity Trilogy.

I did for get that despite have a copy of it.

The two books with different covers between the second prints are below. First print cover is on the left side.



For X-O Manowar 1 and Harbinger 1 the second prints have the same cover but the different printings are different thickness as slightly different paper is used as they shifted from being printed in a plant in the USA to Canada. Here is the indica from Harbinger (X-O Manowar is the same so I didn't take a photo.

[Sunlight on Snow]

Cool. Thx for the pics.

For the sake of completeness and clarity, I've also added the dates when the 4 NEW PRINTINGS were solicited.

[magnus20009]

In my list to this week (June 18, 2021) there have been 707 Valiant issues (excluding FCBD/previews etc) of which 505 have been reprinted in Deluxe editions and 202 have yet to be reprinted in a deluxe HC (while not released I counted the Livewire deluxe as out since it has been solicited).

Topping my wish list for future deluxe books is Unity 2 (issues 15-25 to complete the run) and Eternal Warrior 1 (issues 1-8 plus Days of Steel 1-3)

This is what I have as missing

[Sunlight on Snow]

1 Archer & Armstrong 1% 1

Not sure why they couldn't put this into Book 2?

Someone must have simply forgotten about that story/one-shot.

*Unity ended on issue 25 but at least part of the issue, or all(? - I forget which ) was included in Q&W Deluxe 2

Entire issue (though I'm not 100% sure about Matt Kindt's epilogue right now either)

[Sunlight on Snow]

Topping my wish list for future deluxe books is Unity 2 (issues 15-25 to complete the run) and Eternal Warrior 1 (issues 1-8 plus Days of Steel 1-3)

Yup, those 2 would be nice.

+Legends of the Geomancer
+Life & Death of Toyo Harada
+Eternity
+Ninjak vs. the VU / Valiant High combo (maybe as flipbook hardcover)

[nycjadie]

You guys are awesome. I’ve bookmarked this page and at some point this summer I’ll put together a page on my valiant.fan site. It’s been on hiatus. Once I get my stuff, possibly as early as next month, I’ll start updating again.

I would love for both of those to be published. I think an Eternal Warrior deluxe edition would be a great paid for add-on for the Scorched earth KS, with a later retail release.

Plus, to me from the list you posted above, it looks like there is enough material for a volume 2 of Faith?

[Sunlight on Snow]

I think an Eternal Warrior deluxe edition would be a great paid for add-on for the Scorched earth KS, with a later retail release.

Especially if Scorched Earth included the return of the Houses. (Not saying it does, or could be.)

Sadly that concept was abandoned way too quickly.

Speaking about the Houses, what about a numbered limited edition of Legend of the Geomancer as paid for add-on?

I'm not really into this Scorched Earth project yet -- incl. shipping it seems overpriced; also by an unknown creative team -- but if this was offering me access to a LotG hardcover, I'd be all-in immediately. And I do own the 4 incentives. I don't think the new new crew has still to stick to whatever the old old crew had said they would never do & reprint anymore.

I have suggested both EW deluxe and LotG as paid add-ons. I hope other backers say the same and VEI listen.

I liked the houses concept and was disappointed that mythology was abandoned.

And for SE, while the creative team are unknown, I really like the sample art shown.

The old team always left a get out - they said LotG would not get a tpb collection. Their words were very specific:

As the secrets within the Book of the Geomancer wreak havoc on the present and future of the Valiant Universe, discover the true history and lineage of the very first speaker for the Earth with an all-new series of never-before-seen stories that won’t be collected in trade paperback!

Great list! I also like the list of books that have not been collected in a deluxe HC edition. That will help me with my TPB collection.

I did think of two new Deluxe Hardcovers to add to the list:

Bloodshot by Tim Seeley Deluxe (early 2022)

Rai Dan Abnett Deluxe (early 2022)

Thanks,

This list is so helpful, thanks.

To your Unity and EW, and expanding Sunlight on Sno'ws suggestions I would love to see:
- Eternal Warrior (EW 1-8, Days of steel 1-3, Incursion 1-4)
- Unity volume 2
- Faith volume 2 (various Faith books)
- Life and Death of Toyo Harada (Harbinger: Omegas, Harbinger bleeding Monk, LaDoTH 1-6)

And Q&W seems ready for another collection with the issues above.

[blujay]

Did they ever release the Eternal Warrior Valiant Masters Hardcover? I remember seeing promotion for it years ago.

nope, it never really materialized except for the FCBD showcase freebie in 2013

they solicited another Classic Omnibus for this fall but i wouldn't expect it to be released anymore either

[dornwolf]

Always wished I had grabbed the Ivar, Timewalker deluxe. Ah well. Shame they didn't keep the classic ones going. I only managed to have Bloodshot and Ninjak
