Great news for us board members. Thanks so much for all the hard work and cat herding to make this happen for us. I think it's pretty amazing.

Perhaps I can reciprocate if anything like this happens in the Bay Area.

Best,
Steve

Elery and I love doing things like this promo for the fans that let them purchase exclusives they might not get otherwise. And I have to admit we thoroughly enjoy putting new and creative "extras" together for the efforts fans do in helping promote Valiant. Valiant and their fans have a special relationship which is kind of unique within the industry and Elery and I like rewarding such special fans. VEI also shows their appreciation by supporting our requests with product such as the extra package for round 3 (which will top anything we have done in the past :o ).

Yes, I cannot put into words strongly enough how much I appreciate all of Bruce's and Elery's efforts to put out the call, to get us all to do all the reviews.
I keep procrastinating to do more all this year, but as soon as there is a deadline I find I can get stuck in and do it. Once I am doing them, I really enjoy it as not only do you usually discover something you may of missed in the first re-read, it is also good to be able to express your opinion on each volume.

I am grateful that Valiant appreciate our efforts, thanks to Bruce and Elery, but I would love to see Valiant make some sort of public proclamation in rewarding Bruce and Elery's efforts, after all if it weren't for them. most of these reviews would not be done. How about a guest role in one of the books hehe.

Thank you Bruce and Elery :clap: :thumb:
