Hippies, they've let hippies in! With their hugging ways. Greg, greg!nickvasallo wrote:If Shooter and Layton had a beer, vented, and had a hug moment that would be cool, because VALIANT was at it's BEST when they were a TEAM. BWS was cool too but not nearly as big a contributor as they were.
David Lapham was awesome too, wayyy underated

I'm very happy to hear that Layton is doing projects for VEI. I would certainly be in favor of him coming back as more than work-for-hire. BWS would be cool, but I don't know how likely it would be for him to return given recent reported behavior.
I also agree with nickvasallo that if Shooter and Layton could work together again, then VEI would have a far greater chance of making a true impact on the industry again.

I think time has healed the wounds somewhat, but I'm not sure if it's enough to get them working directly with each other again.rictor wrote:I'm very happy to hear that Layton is doing projects for VEI.
