:hm: :? So either Unity or X-O might not just replace that month, or else there's something else coming that we don't know about yet.

If XO and Unity Zero replace the regular numbering in Oct, and Unity #0 is the Cary Nord project, then Q2 could be title 9 for the month.

I'd be surprised if X-O #0 replaces the regular numbered issue in October, it seems up to this point that they've been committed to keeping this series uninterrupted. since X-O symbolizes the VEI relaunch, I think it would be a good idea to maintain it that way.

Who knows. Some zeroes were released the same month as the regular numbered issue, some weren't. But with the commitment to 9 books/month for the foreseeable future, I doubt they double up with these.

does shipping two issues of the same series in a month count as another book? hell, the number zero can't even be counted anyway...

October is looking awfully full:

1. Archer & Armstrong 25
2. Bloodshot 24
3. Harbinger: Omegas 3
4. Doctor Mirage 2
5. The Delinquents 3
6. Unity 0
7. X-O Manowar 0
8. Armor Hunters: Aftermath 1
9. Q2: Return of Quantum & Woody 1

I don't think we will see two X-O Manowar or Unity books. It also doesn't look like we will see the Cary Nord (Eternal Warrior?) book. That will more than likely come in November given how open the schedule looks there.

Looks like the Cary Nord book is Unity #0, but there was a cryptic Facebook response from VEI saying "No" when someone asked if that is what the pages they posted were from. Perhaps we will get a second Nord book--EW #0--in November?

Actually it was the "NEW" redacted starring redacted redacted redacted :D

The "new" is key.

New Unity team? New Renegades? Or is it one title staring someone with three names (like "Aric of Dacia")?

Replace "Trinity Angels" with "Nigel's Angels" and I'd be sold with that lineup, though.

Interesting, considering that whatshisname let slip at Special Edition that VEI was *muffle muffle muffle*
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

I suppose you can safely add Q2 for the remainder of its 5 issues to the lists.

Thanks for keeping a tally btw :thumb:

I really hope Valiant doesn't turn into Marvel with all of these #1's.

Although it's hard to be upset when I'm excited for almost all of them.

So that makes 7 for November. So then I'm thinking Unity and the next phase of Harbinger to get to 9.

Same difference. I included Q2 in my seven, you included Unity.
