Fun/Unique Valiant Comic for Auction. Proceeds to the VF.com

Post by GJB »

Hi Guys,

During the process of looking through some of my Valiants, I came across the below book. It was a secret Santa gift from a few years back. It doesn't make sense for it to be buried in my closet and would be best for one of you to have it. I cannot remember who sent this to me, I guess that's why it was a secret, but thank you. It was a cool, creative gift and I am proud to have owned it. I also wanted to show it off a bit. Isn't this a pretty amazing gift? If you created this, speak up!

I was going to give it away for free, but then I decided to see if we could raise a few bucks for this great site Greg created. I'll leave it up for auction for a week. Auction ends 9:00 pm on Tuesday, February 8th. Eastern time.

The winner pays Greg. I'll ship it for free.

Good luck!

It's actually an over lay. It is not drawn on the book. I opened it for the first time yesterday and figured that out.

I originally thought someone had cut up the cover of Rai #19 and pasted it onto the Solar #7 cover because the banner looks similar, but the banner on Rai #19 reads "Happy New Year", not "Merry Christmas", so I have no idea. :?

This was from Christmas 2007, man time goes by, and it was given to me by Dr. Solar. I'm guessing it's one of a kind.

I dug through my past pm's and amazingly enough, he contacted me way back to let me know after the fact he was my secret santa.
