I think it's a cool idea, but I'm too cheap to ever do it I think. I'm pretty much against anything that costs me money.

That's why I collect Valiants and hang out on the board.

I will PM you and we can chat. I would consider it a privilege to have you read through one of mine. Its no fun if they just sit on a shelf for me to read and look at.. I can share my fun!

What about taking a TPB and turning it back into individual issues?

That makes as little sense - no ads, the paper is different, there is always changes... like saying the 1977 release of "Star Wars" is the same as the recent re-release, after you go through and edit out the extra scenes.

Nuh-uh.

I think you just Chiclo'd his joke.

Chiclo hasn't trademarked it...yet.

I was thinking of putting an entry in at Wikipedia

To Chiclo.

Then it would be official, right?

Until a patent or a trademark is issued, this game is open to us all.

Hey, I penned the term "chiclo'ing a joke!" I deserve a bit of fair usage.

What would be the direction you would point me when reading thru the comics. Is it better to start with one book, and work my way thru?
I did read in the "re-read" section the chronological order of the books, and that might make me a little bonkers reading that. it seems that I would be jumping all around.
So I figure that I would be reading Pre-Unity first...
Is there a good order to read the books?

I still have a few to pick up to complete my Pre-Unity...
I am missing:
Magnus, the Robot Fighter: 0, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14

Rai: 1, 2, 5

Vintage Magnus: 1, 2, 3, 4

Not too bad when you look at all the books....[/b]

I would read them in the order in which they came out, so you can experience Valiant like others did when the books first came out.

As far as the books you need, if you're interested in buying them, I'm sure I have most of them and can sell them for a good price. PM me if interested.
