Oh, and speaking of that particular one:

That was supposed to be five, but one comicless guy didn't want to be left out.
Good Morning, that's a nice tnetennba.

To clarify. One photo that has five people holding Valiant books. (This entry is worth 200 points)
Yes. You can get 200 points for this one. One entry per listed item allowed.

Re: *2014 Valiant Photo Scavenger Hunt* - Entries Page
The latest entries are W O N D E R F U L!
Thank you for the effort and creativity put forth. It is entries like these which we hoped to see so that VEI could possible use them in the future to help demonstrate (among other things), what GREAT fans they have! We could not be more pleased with what we've been seeing here and on the two facebook sites where this is running also, for our last and hopefully most fun promo yet! The next best fun will be hearing what all the winners think of their special prize. Have to admit that we're anxiously looking forward to that aspect of this also. Plus, just about the same time, we should be hearing what the 33 participants think about their "extra" for Round #3. All in all, Elery and I are both looking forward to early December to hear all reactions.
I would be remiss to not thank everyone who has worked with us over the last couple of years to make these promotions the success they have been. We've said it before and can state it again because it's so very true: the members here are genuinely unique within this industry in their passion and support of VEI. You all deserve way more recognition than Elery and I can ever provide through these promos for you. YOU folks are why we started doing this almost two years ago and have been our source of joy for that period
It is our hope that VEI continues to recognize the jewel they have in fans such as all of you and treat you accordingly. You all remain one of their greatest assets! Kudos to you all

Re: *2014 Valiant Photo Scavenger Hunt* - Entries Page
About the photo of Harbinger 25.
Was going to paint the clock on the side of my brick shed ~ just because it would be cool, and easier than using the software I have.
Glad I didn't, as I tried to get my daughter to sit like that with various types of support, but it just didn't work.
Plus the weather has turned ~ and their is no way EVER I would want my daughter outside in summer cloths at the moment.
Not so much a temperature drop as light mist and no sun.
Unfortunately I do not have publisher software, other wise I would have rotated the image slightly to line up clock horizontal.
It was fun painting the clock, will go in my shed.
Got some other funny photos as well ~ but don't want to crowd this this thread with 'outtakes' .

Since the move my "Valiant-Themed Room" has turned into a long "Valiant-Themed Hallway" .
I tried to decorate my bedroom, but my wife said that making love while looking at Shadowman, Bloodshot, and Armstrong was a MAJOR no-go.
So, hallway photo to follow shortly...

On the wall, lol. She's NOT a huge comic book fan. Lucky for me, the kids and I ARE.

Same at our place, the missus tolerates it, thankfully the kids (mostly all grown up) are all onside.
