Imagine if every comic book in existance ended after the original creative team left.

Do people collect the credit box for the creators or the stories for the characters?
:atomic: Comics are like a Rorschach test, everyone has a different opinion on what they are and can be... :atomic:

both are important. Even good creators write bad stories and vice versa. I don't know anyone who would argue the 2nd half of A&A was as good as or better (or even decent) when compared with 1-12.
What we need is innovation and even revolution—but not so much in the form of marketing ploys and doohickeys. What is needed is bold creative vision, excellent stories, and brilliant storytelling, in a word, entertainment. -- Jim Shooter

Well, here on the boards, most of us are collecting the universe, even if that includes Psi-Lords #3 (I was going to put a smiley face after that, but then I realized that there was nothing funny about it)

Don't remember reading much more about her. Maybe some of the Greek gods were Harbingers or similar? Maybe some had prolonged lives? There was a mention once that Aram was one of the Greek gods (not canon, it was what someone mentioned, so it might be wrong).

Don't think anything was ever stated, but one can make some coherent guesswork.

I think in Eternal Warrior #3 (immediately after Unity), Alcott's daughter says Gilad is like Hercules & he replies "No, that was my brother."
Isn't there a Valiant Files card with an image of Armstrong as a greek god?

Some people spend their whole lives believing in fairy tales, usually because they don't want to give up the fabulous prizes.
