Knowing Jedi, that's probably not all of them.

I'm all fro 2 and 3 sets, but 20 is plain silly. Not to mention-how about spreading the wealth? lol. I can't talk too much. I've bought several copies of rare items in order to have them. It's all part of the fun of collecting, but still...a monopoly? Only one I'd like to have is all the Platinum Bloodshot #0. 8-)

I can't believe I went through all the trouble of digging out a working digital camera, dragging all this downstairs, fighting my father's computer to upload the pics with his camera, miraculously getting the pics off it in 30 seconds with my computers - went through all that trouble and forgot to include the Unity 0 CGC 9.6.

Primarily Unity 0, but that is my Unity hoard.

Glad you took the time to do it. Looks very cool. Is that an 8 dollar sticker on that one towards the top middle?

Yeah, the big sticker is an $8. There a $10 on the Unity 0 on the bottom row, next to last column on the right. Most of the others are $1.50 and there's some $3 and $2.

I bought most of them in two batches on eBay.

Edit - and one of the Unity 0 Red's has a price tag of $25. Not that I wouldn't snatch one up at that price, but I paid $2.99 for it and 8 other comics on eBay, not that I even cared about the eight other comics.

Maybe after hearing all this I should hoard. I know where I can put my hands on some Unity 0 & 1 in quantity. In fact, I could probabaly put together several almost complete sets of Unity, being that I'd be missing the second of the Shadowman chapters. The used bookstore I often go to, has loads of Unity stuff. The kid that works there let me get my unity stuff for cheap.

I can't wait to read it completely through. I got the timeline for reading the Valiant Universe off one of the threads on here and have been waiting to get started. So as soon as I get my Timewalker #0 I can get started, shouldn't be that much longer. Just sucks to have 600 books laying around that you promised yourself not ot read until they are all here.

:(

But, Timewalker didn't have any Unity crossovers?

Ivar wasn't introduced until 6 months after Unity.

I know, I am going off of a chronological timeline that was posted on here by MOTA, I know it is not a Unity title but chronologically it is to be read before Unity. I don't know every time this is posted it has god things said about it. Here is a post of it in this thread.

I know we all have more Rai and the FF 9 than we intended to, but if anyone is actively hoarding them (drop me a line, by all means):

Saving as many as I can, man, as many as I can-especially PreUnity. In fact, I already have a few doubles, all in Solar and will soon have more as well as my first Magnus Pre-Unity double, which will be the first issue. I have a stack of books waiting for me at a store, and I plan on going in and getting them soon. I want to finish my main collection before doing too many multiples.

Me too. That's what got me going with Valiant back in the day. After randomly picking up X-O 1 and not really paying attention, Unity 0 and Eternal Warrior 1 were my first real VALIANT books.

Here is something a little different. It is valiant related.

For the newbies it is grab bags with 3 common valiant comics inside.

I have had this pic for a long time but never had a reason to show it until now!! I had more but I couldn't fit it all on the table at the time.
