VH-T = Valiant Heroes/Taddeo (Valiant/Acclaim/Assassination)

I would guess he's got plans to have his heroes bump into X-o and the like...

Congrats on bringing home the bacon, JT!!

I like the fact that the rights were won by an individual and not an established company. That's probably the ONLY way Shooter would ever even consider working on Valiant again.

I wonder who the third bidder with old Valiant affiliation was?

Congratulations John!

It's really a great day for the fans who have seen these great characters rotting in Acclaim's basement for years.

Next step: The X-O mini by Shooter, BWS, and Layton :P

It was sure as hell more than two ham sandwiches and a sleeve of Titleists.

Bring on the comics!

Since it's 1992 all over again, Mr. Taddeo, I promise to buy multiple copies of everything you put out that is Valiant related.
