I am a 30 yr old male who is happy as can be. Because I believe I have found people like me. People who know Valiant Comics were the best comics put out the since the 60's and there have not been any to surpass them since.
It was when I picked up Eternal Warrior #1 that I became a fan and have never stopped since. Gilad is my favorite character ever. I remember getting in fights with other kids about how Gilad would whip wolverine's butt. And let's face it he can. And X-O can take iron man in a min.
But thank you to whoever made this site and thank you guys on it for letting me join you in sharing our love for Valiant.

Welcome to the boards. Pikachu is a little rat with the power of yellow Thor.
I've often thought that a Gilad/Wolverine crossover had significant potential.
You have found us. Together again for the first time.

Welcome to the bored!
Stick around, post a lot, and have fun.
It was Unity 0, Eternal Warrior 1, and Archer & Armstrong 1 that turned me into a Valiant fan. I think I got them all the same day.

Did not care for Ivar but I loved the other two Anni-Padda brothers and their intertwined history throughout the VH-1 universe. Gilad was just awesome though—the animosity between him and Aric Dacia was just great for storytelling.
And welcome to the boards. I can definitely indentify with your story as we were roughly the same age when Unity came out—my intro was X-O #1-3.
