Sure is. For better and worse it has a more modern look. I do not like Flamingo's eyes. They have lost detail. Otherwise I agree.
Bob Hall is an interesting choice. Quite a contrast to Lapham's art. Might indicate that the story contrasts a bit as well. I wonder what the new character will lead to. Obviously there's a big plan here which is very promising.

Bob Hall drawing again the Valiant Universe is GREAT news. He deserves to be in the comics field and I couldn't be happier with the choise of him as artist.

I see the re-coloring... Decided to give it a different look - probably a nice idea.

I'm hoping I can get a couple - VALIANT coming back is almost a good enough reason to move to the States
Is this going to be available in places like Amazon? Otherwise I'm not sure how I'm going to nab it  :
...and there is something fundamentally wrong with that notion.  |

| Can't go wrong with Bob Hall. It would be so nice if, when new books start coming out, they got support from the old school Valiant members. People like Shooter, Lapham, Hall, and the various House artists. |

Hmmmm..... I might consider getting two depending on what kind of discount I get.
One to read and one to keep closed.
I did it for a Green Lantern HC, so why not this one... |

it is still kind of amazing to think about reading a new Val. story, let alone one by Shooter, and Bob Hall art just makes it that much more incredible.
We've talked about the possibility of new books, but sorta seemed like a never gonna happen.
I don't know this Dino dude, but thanks man.
Shooter and Hall, crazy! |

If you ever do run into Dino, you can recognize him by the army of midgets surrounding him..... |
