I got one . . I was kind of *SQUEE* . . .

Harbinger 1 got a mention with picture . . but should have been higher on the list . . Mag 0 I think was the only other valiant book . . I just skimmed it though . .

Shooter got a mention as a Rebel that affected the industry on a sidebar . . .

But in the "Moments that shook the comics world from 1990 to 2000 there was no mention of Valiant at all . . they were the #3 effing company and the hottest thing around for a while . . .

Harbinger, Magnus and X-O Manowar was mentioned and there was a drawing of Solar in a collage piece on one of the pages as well as a small article on Jim Shooter.

What did they rank?

Chiclo · Post by **Chiclo** » Mon Apr 14, 2008 2:26 pm

My girlfriend picked it up last wednesday.

There was a quiz in it with a couple of Valiant mentions. At least one mention of X-O/Iron Man.

That's really it that I can think of off the top of my head.

WIZARD IS EVIL...but unfortunaltely a necessary evil for communicating to the masses.

X-O was mentioned as part of 'when Marvel tried to buy the copyrights to the letter 'X', more so, any title starting with 'X' as they had 'X-Men, X-Factor etc' so there was an attempt to stop the 'X-O Manowar' issue from being published.

If you cannot afford or obtain a copy of Wizard, I will send you my copy when I am done reading it.

Wizard is pointless old toss and i just wish they would disappear and be replaced by some people who care about comics, not the $$ they can make out of the comics industry by taking hyperbole with whoever chooses to bed with them.

Scum suckers !!!!

Already do that one. Cant go wrong for sure.

I think in general a replacement for what wizard did for the whole recent hot book crowd etc is the need. Without the BS.
CBG doesnt do the whole salivating fanboy thing.

If Dino couldn't afford a copy of Wizard, VEI would probably be in a heap of trouble...

I picked up the first issue of Comics Now. I thought it was pretty good, but I still prefer CBG.
