Dark Horse and......

Maybe the printing delay on the Archer & Armstrong hardcover is because they reprinted the covers with the Dark Horse logo on it as well?

It would make sense for VEI and Dark Horse to work together since the both have rights to pieces of the ORIGINAL Valiant Universe.

Then we would be able to see reprints of the classic Magnus, Solar and Unity storylines from Valiant. I do not think they can even be printed now unless both companies agree.

Just playing the devils advocate and stirring the pot a bit.

Eh, I rather doubt that's going to the case.

Well, I think they've proven that they can reprint what they already owned, because Solar pops up in Harbinger and X-O and part of Unity will be in A&A. I would just like to see something happen with DH so that Solar and Magnus aren't just completely ignored for the rest of Valiant's future.

I think Dark Horse getting new Solar and Magnus stories is a key part of this equation.

If VEI does the same as Western Publishing and licenses their properties out to Dark Horse we could be looking at the rebirth of the true Valiant portfolio.

Dark Horse has all the necessary items to produce comics. VEI would have to build to the level Dark Horse is at.

It makes sense to me.
Now I understand that most likely someone else thought of this before me, but since I'm the first one to post my greatness in this thread that means all subsequent glory belongs to me.

Kneel. Before. Zod.

Snoochie. Boochies.
F you.
You hurt my heart.

LOL.

Awesome.

You sir have just received Cinlach cool points.

all of our speculation leads me to wonder what fans of gold key were thinking when they heard that some group calling themselves voyager were gonna put out some new stories...

They said it was a "huge announcement." Would a Superman crossover with DC really be "huge?"

Wow!!! This is great news. I won't get my hopes high, but I'm hoping a DH/VALIANT deal would hopefully come to fruition. When I was in Baltimore Con the ARTIST, said some was in the works "sooner than you think" has me going "Hmmm!

I think it would be a smart move on both companies. DH is launching there new line along with the new Valiant universe. What better way is there to get DH readers to pick up a new Valiant book. If its true, it sounds like a good marketing strategy!

If both start around the same time, they could cross back and forth a lot and make for some great depth

jdmoonie77 · Post by **jdmoonie77** » Sat Oct 18, 2008 11:14 pm

Could it be possible since there was no official announcement that DH had acquired the rights to GK characters that this major announcement could be to confirm what we already kno? My apologies if there was already an announcement in one of the other threads.

Alines vs. Predator/Turok would be pretty sweet.
