If a$$-Mass is ever confirmed to be involved in any way then I'd have to rethink my support for the new company.

That would be like remarrying your previously cheating and abusive spouse. Or something.

Good point. Maybe VIP stands for "Villians Impersonating Professionals" or something.

Do you guys think spider aliens count as like one bad guy or a group of bad guys. They were the best.

Other.

Solar really is the villian to this story, and the ultimate one. That story just never got played out in anything we've read yet.

What area of law does Massarsky practice? He could be consulting with them strictly as clients.

I voted Harada, but only because if i had to choose - I'd rather read a Harbinger based Valiant universe than a mystic based one.

But without the restrictions, I would say that you need to have a most important villain for each sub-genre.

So for outer space - Spider-Aliens

The mystics - Master darque

Harbingers - Harada

espionage - ???

criminal underworld - ???

Hah! You're the second person that gave that name. The other guy spelled it a bit differently, though. :wink:

Good call.

And maybe Immortal Enemy could be converted into a crimelord.

IE was a crimelord. In one of his many incarnations (the one he was introduced as...I cannot recall the name though)
