I'd be ok with any as long as that's the case.Zaphod wrote:Marvel and Valiant did cross-overs in the 90's. There is nothing to say that can't or won't happen again.
Sub-question: would you prefer Valiant align themselves with DC or Marvel?
(in a world where those are the choices, of course...they could align with Dark Horse and ruin my poll entirely)

Re: New Valiant "Signature Series"........
I think this is a novel idea!
.. but I dont think these covers look all that great, really.
I grade them accordingly:
Shadowman: 8/10.
Harbinger: 9/10.
Eternal Warrior: 7/10.
Bloodshot: 6/10.
Maybe a background would have made me feel better about these covers, not sure.
What will happen if these are really rare but no one thinks they are drawn all that nicely?
The super rare ugly variants?? LOL

Re: New Valiant "Signature Series"........
I like the Chen and Hall covers, the Moretti EW is okay but I don't understand the Bloodshot cover. The face is odd and the pose... it looks like he's flying.

Did I read correctly that these are printed signatures?

Re: New Valiant "Signature Series"........
My guess would be that the character art is set against black backgrounds so that 100% of the viewer's attention is on the artist's drawing itself. Seeing as these covers are all about the original artist's/writer's work, it makes sense that there's nothing extraneous on the cover to detract from that.IanAlexavier wrote:Maybe a background would have made me feel better about these covers, not sure.
Although the way he's holding his staff does look a bit odd, I do really like Bob Hall's Shadowman cover

Re: New Valiant "Signature Series"........
Yeah, that aspect is fine but I'm not sure calling it a "Signature Series" really makes sense when there's something with a similar name and actual signatures.x-omatic wrote:Did I read correctly that these are printed signatures?
