hello again I got the new free comice with magnus and solar, WOW looks soo cool. I think solar is great the way they have protrayed him and his way of doing things very neet. As for magnus it’s OK. but I think solar will be the hit I dont really like the type of art in magnus BUT I will still be getting 1-5 of each comic and I bet in number one of each comic you will find a date for the release for Turok.
I do hope they do a a good job with Turok and make him more a native indian and not a hollywood replica of a termanator. I did not like what Acclame did with turok.
I think they should have lots of jungle shots and have him thanking the sperit of the animals he kills.(some times)
also I do hope they dont do a duplicut of the old son of stone comics I hope they start with the begining of the story. by haveing andar there and start the series like the old stuff but kinda go there own way with the carature. I wish also they had white pages and did the comic kinda old looking like a lost story from ages ago. I dont like what people are doing with comics now a days all digital and supper clean cut and video game like. I like the earlyer Valiant art of Turok also I hope they call it Just Turok. not turok son of stone, or turok dino hunter I want somthing new but old in the same well thanks guy Js

do you remember the comic shadow hawk there was one called images of shadow hawk I hated that art work. I get a light sense of that art work from the new magnus. also I did like solar because he has Way more potential as a carature. there is only so much magnus can do as a person.
in the valiant universe solar was a big part in the universe story line and he created mother god,and distroyed her. and with out Solar (mother god) there would be no unity. do you remember when Xo’s suit got destroyed who was there to get eric a new one, it was solar.
solar, magnus and turok may have there fates interlocked with this new series and I bet solar will be a huge part of it. if dark horse choses to put them together to fight somthing big. or save the world
I found solar neeter with the page were he is punching the guy and you can see like 5 punches like the matrix and I loved the mention of the matrix and Neo.
magnus was just that.. magnus nothing relly new BUT I did like the relation ship with his girl. I do like the old magnus and the beginning of the valiant series but not when he gets the bird and all that stuff. I vote for solar as a cooler careture and with more veriant of story lines he can be in. magnus will just be fighting another big robot. I have dedicated my self to the first 1-5 of each comic because I do like magnus I want to give dark horse a chance to WOW me. I will only pick one in the long run and that would be TUROK but I will still follow one of the others magnus or solar
please if you hear of anything about Turok let me know asap
well that was it a little long but you get my points.
anyone in NYC on july 17 2010 I need a sighned comic please

Well come on now... we need to at least try to be mentors to the new people. This guy here put some time, energy and thought into his post and it sure as hell beats a post like this; Post #1, "HI my name is Rufus and I loves me some Valiant comics, I need all of them so if anyone has any for free that they want to give to me I would really like that. I can pay for the postage but will nedd to split that up into three payments."

Right, am I right ? Lets not 'keep 'em in line', lets 'train' folks when they arrive. I have mentored at least 3 board members and they are now totally immersed in the community and are also contributing members.

So long as we don't discuss our wive's ....................., it's all good.

I just read the FCBD Solar story today for the first time and my initial impression is lukewarm which is pretty good since the early Valiant run is impossible to measure up too even for Jim. Still looking forward to Solar #1. Bring on the Shooter stories. :clap:

OK, read Magnus last night then reread Solar. I prefer Magnus mostly because it has more of a classic "feel" even though that probably isn't a fair way to judge the story. Definitely have a better opinion of Solar than I did initially. Picked up on hints of origin I missed yesterday in the dialogue. Looking forward to see how Jim develops these characters.
