I was thinking about that too. I don't think Bloodshot and the Hard Corps should count as a new title.

so...
1. Quantum and Woody
2. Eternal Warrior
3. ???

Could the third be... Unity?

Did they say 3 new "books" or 3 new "titles"?

If it's titles, then "Bloodshot and HARD Corps" would count as a new title.

Well, the Hard Corps are arriving, so even if it does 'count as' the third title, hopefully at least some people will be excited to see them back in the universe :)

I'm thinking that Ninjak's going to be announced very shortly before his series comes out. It's just going to sneak up on us like Shadowman did. Because he's Ninjak.

I'm not all that thrilled about Hard corps because I didn't really care for them the first time around. But this is a whole new company with a whole bunch of new creators so I will pick up the first arc at least. This is the first title that will really have to WOW me, to keep me interested though.

I hope that those are the only titles for now. Comic books are extravagant here and I can not afford all of these Valiants if they go eight titles a month with an occasional limited series.

Good point. I've always thought that ninjas in movies are terrible because you can actually see them. A really good ninja movie would be two hours of people dying for no apparent reason. :P

Posted on the Valiant twitter -- "We are very mindful of exactly that which is why we are only releasing 2 new books this summer. #WeGotThis"

The "that" they're referring to is over expanding the line of books too quickly. Looks like Q&W and EW is it.

So are they counting Q&W as a "summer" release or are they part of the 2 books along with ETERNAL WARRIOR (meaning no NINJAK)

3 new "titles" = Quantum & Woody, Eternal Warrior and Bloodshot & HARD Corps.

Warren said the Summer will be "bookended" by 2 new series: Q&W in July and EW in September.

They teased Ninjak in FCBD for summer so it would be surprising if he didn't pop up in a book somewhere. :hm:

He could work well in Bloodshot & HARD Corps, but I wouldn't think he'd be in that opening arc.

Maybe he'll pay Pete and the Renegades a visit? Or recruit some of Harada's Egg Breakers into MI:6?
