X-O #0 Artist's Edition

Looks like it was already delayed once from February to April, wonder if its still coming out?

Surprised no one has mentioned it on here. It wouldn't be my first choice for a Vh1 AE, but it is beautiful artwork and I would definitely pick this up if it comes out.

Yeah I like the idea of single issue AE's for a reasonable price. Oversized (7.5 x 11) but not full art size is good too, easier to handle. It's closer to the Artisan Edition size than the 1:1 Artist's Editions. Kudos to Alien, more like this please.

Yep I will be picking this up as well. Assuming it comes out. I'd like to see one maybe by artist or character from VH1

That would be awesome. Any of Archer & Armstrong 0-12 would be a no brainer, BWS art books always sell well to the general comics audience. How about doing the double A&A/EW #8 issue next?

Solar Alpha & Omega and Magnus Steel Nation would be dream Artist Editions, but of course there's the rights to deal with.

Harbinger 1-7 as single issues would be great, or as a collection. Rai 0. Shadowman 10. X-O 1. EW 1. Rai flipbook 1 (Magnus doesn't appear). :hm:

Another couple ideas for Vh1 Artist Editions-

All the Unity covers as a single oversized issue.

All the BWS covers, with pencils, sketches, thumbnails and all his concept art included.

All the pre-Unity covers. Original art and original colors side-by-side.

How about an AE that shows the original colors with the original art, with some explanations of the Valiant coloring process by Jayjay herself. Use Harbinger #1 or X-O #1 and reprint the whole issue with original inks on one side and original colors on the other.

This looks rad & I pre-ordered it with DCBS. With the Valiant / Alien release dates tbd or in flux I'll have to keep an eye on if it will be filled or re-solicited.
