Over the past week or so I've spent quite a bit of time checking out the rest of the Valiantcomic site. I think the data base of comics with the covers, story name, inkers, pencils, etc is awesome. How much more work would it be to add some kind of story synopsis to each one. Now...before I get biraged (sp?) with "why don't you do that" I can't for a couple of reasons...the main one being...I don't have a complete VH1 set...I'm getting there but it's slow going. I would happy to send greg some (if this is something he would even want to have done). I'm not talking editorials here either...just a quick "what went on" in the issue...or am I just rambling to myself??? :shock:

Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?

Actually, I've always wanted to do something like that...
but I've only included what has been provided so far.

If there's a way we could get some synopses typed up... I'd add 'em!

Sounds cool...we could have everyone contribute and send them in. Of course someone would have to be the editor...I guess that would be greg but who knows...Also I guess that the editor would have to have some idea of what went on in everybook...That way people could not submit stuff like "in bloodshot 11 pink elephants killed bloodshot and the king elephant because the new bloodshot and he could fire lasers from his trunk and it was awesome." It would probably be a huge undertaking given the number of books, but we could work on it...think with some 100 users of this board that would only be about 7 books person..that would be like a book a day for a week and we could have this done if everyone chipped in...of course everyone would not so it would take longer...also can I get dibs on bloodshot or does VanHook get first shot?

The work is already done for what's in the continuity Bible. If you are going to start somewhere, start where it leaves off.

I would contribute the unity saga's since I've been meaning to re-read the entire set but haven't gotten around to it.

We could use some of the info provided by the V. Bible.
I would be willing to help you with that.
