Well, since I have been gone for quiet a while going to school and sutch, I was hoping to come back and see that this board had changed, I see that it hasn't. Why do you all persist in Flaming each other like this? If there is a problem with Vault Keepers book, then don't order it for crying out loud. He says that he has permission from Bob, let him do it until you can prove otherwise, Jesus. I know that my opinion right now may seem like squat to you guys right now as I have been gone for awhile, but this is one of the reasons. All of the acusing and pointing fingers that happens here, how do you call this fun?

You're right, your opinion doesn't mean squat. You don't post here in ages and then your first post back is to b1tch and complain about how others post? How about contributing something of value before you start spewing off at the mouth and telling others what to do? Also, if you had read the thread more carefully, you would have found out Bob's permission means squat when it comes to making copies of something he doesn't own the rights to.

Vault-Keeper wrote:OK

Here is the info:

Due to demand, I have decided to make copies of the VCB at my cost for any members old or new who want one, subject to my descretion and approval. In other words, NO trolls or abusers.

For those who don't know, the VCB is the Valiant Continuity Bible. It was written by the late Seaborn Adamson, who was the Official Valiant Archivist. It is over 250+ pages (all text), & gives summary information on all Valiant comics & characters up to mid-1993. It was never updated because Seaborn died in a car accident, & according to Kevin VanHook--"No one else was able to continue it at the time".

This Bible was used as an in-house reference guide for writers & artists. I purchased my copy directly from Valiant's old Editor-In-Chief---Bob Layton. I have premission to copy from Bob, so there is no hassle over me making copies at my cost. Because I am calling it an Encyclopedia, it makes my copies for cost 100% legal.

Here are the contents of the Valiant Continuity Bible:

1. History of the Valiant Universe (from 5000 BC to 4003 AD, including a Unity Timeline)---7 pages;

2. Archer & Armstrong section*, covering issue #0-#10;

*All these sections include a page for Identity, 1st Appearance, & Brief Origin; a page for Timeline of Key Events; followed by 1 to 2 page descriptions of each issue, which include: Cover Credits, Story Title, Credits, Supporting Characters, Comments, & Synopsis;

3. Bloodshot section covering issues #1-5;

4. Eternal Warrior section covering issues #1-11;

5. Harbinger section covering issues #0-#18;

6. H.A.R.D. Corps section covering issues #1-#7;

7. Magnus section covering issues #0-#25;

8. Rai section covering issues #0-#10;

9. Shadowman section covering issues #1-#14;

10. Solar section covering issues #0(Alpha & Omega)-#21;

11. X-O Manowar section covering issues #1-#17;

12. Unity section covering issues #0-#1;

13. Magic In The Valiant Universe section---2 pages;

14. Alphabetical Glossary of Valiant Terms & Characters---13 pages;

15. Roster of Heroes & Villains (this is a section that cross references character appearances)---18 pages.

Copies will all be marked "4th Print June 2006 copy", & they won't have the Unity #0 picture at the front, like the 25 1st Print copies I made two years ago. Unlike the unbound copies I made two years ago, these copies will be spiral bound, like the original, including a clear front cover, & a back cover.

Copies will cost $35 each.

This includes Insured Priority shipping.

Copies will be made & sent depending on the volume of the orders I receive. All in all, they should begin being shipped within 2 weeks from this post.

Thanks!---Steve

Well, that's aweful nice of you Steve. I truly appreciate the offer. As far as I'm concerned, it's a must have for any die hard Vailant fan.

Interesting.

PM me. I don't use PayPal.

Vault-Keeper · Post by **Vault-Keeper** » Thu Jun 01, 2006 8:39 am

Sign-up for this offer will close this Sunday, June 4th.

I am also printing copies of the Book Of Geomancers (about 12 pages). If you want it also, it will be an additional $5.

I will write to everyone who expressed interest. Some of you have already paid. I will keep everyone updated. If you want in on this, PM me here before next Monday rolls around. I'll be going to the printer's by Monday afternoon.---Steve

Dayum. You work 70 hours in a week, you miss all SORTS of good times!

For the record....doing something "until it can be proven otherwise that you can't" is what we call "copyright infringement lawsuits."

Fun fun!
