Congrats!! :thumb: :clap:
Yeah, it's much more interesting and fun reading Valiant as part of a community :D

True .. That's why I would be a terrible web designer. It would be a gaudy hot mess and take 10 hours to load a page. :oops:

Anyway, Shouldn't you be hard at work planning your Canadian invasion? :?
If he's invading the French part of Canada all he has to "plan" is whether to say, "This is an invasion" in English or French. Either way, the invasion will be successful.
The results when the line is delivered in French seem to be better and met with less resistance than when spoken in English.

Completely off the topic of our 10th anniversary, but your comment echoes something I've been seeing on T.V.
Chevy has a commercial that runs OFTEN during sporting events.
At the end of the commercial the guy in the Chevy truck says, "When it comes to a quiet cab, Chevy is second to nobody in its class. And when I say 'nobody' I mean Ram and Ford."

BURN. :atomic:

:hm:

Wait a minute!

If 'nobody' means Ram and Ford, then "Chevy is second to Ram and Ford."

Way to go, Chevy! You're third!
How much did that commercial cost you? :lol:

I always love the commercials or slogans in which they tried really hard for a double entendre but they didn't think about the implications of the second meaning to the slogan.

If I was VEI, I'd give him one of each of the Gold books. 10 years of work is alot more than any one event/promotion to build up Valiant comics!
