But like a double rainbow, it leaves me wondering:

What does it mean???

Interesting tweet from Valiant... any clues on what it could mean?

Huge step forward today for Valiant! We made a play that will shock when its announced and will pay back for years to come!

They got the rights back to the Gold Key characters?

That's definitely one idea that came to mind... I also thought maybe they did the impossible and got Shooter back, but I think both are pretty unlikely. Maybe they acquired one of the original creators or finally made space travel possible?

After Dark Horse's total mismanagement of original stories for Gold Key characters it is quite possible that Random House could have pulled them and went elsewhere. Dark Horse doesn't have an exclusive on all the Gold Key properties that Random House owns. Checker House & Hermes Press is also reprinting Gold Key properties as well. Random House owns them and can pretty much go where they want.

Yeesh. I hope not. He's too busy blogging anyway.



"Play" and "years to come" sound like they may have gotten some of the Gold Key properties back, but I don't know.

I would agree (and it's always possible) that is could be the GK3 are back, but it just seems unlikely. I mean, DH doesn't own the rights to all GK, but they do have publishing rights for the three we care most about (make that 2 ). They've also stated interest in keeping the franchise going, so I don't know why they would let the licences go? Honestly, I don't know how all of that works, though, so it's still entirely possible and I hope that's it.

Sadly, I agree with you that the Shooter return wouldn't be as exciting for me now as it would have been before the Dark Horse fiasco. First, I don't entirely respect him anymore for the recent comments he's made on his blog and second, I wasn't all that impressed with the Dark Horse stuff... I was hopeful that it was going to all tie into something, but it didn't.

The first thing that popped into my head when I read "play" and "shocked" was the GK3, because that seems to be the most obvious answer, but it just seems so unlikely at the same time.

Hunter hates it when I get on Twitter and make cryptic tweets! Nothing to do with GK3 but super exciting nonetheless! Made everyone in the office fist pump the sky

Well, I'm glad to see a definite "no" on that. I think I'm going to hope for movie deal or a video game.

PS - I'm absolutely loving how vocal Valiant is being lately, it really is making it fun to be a fan!

You guys should stop watching Jersey Shore in the office.

Hah, before I saw your post I was going to ask them if they had moved their offices to New Jersey.

Keep all the cryptic news coming!! I love it when you guys throw us a bone and keep the excitement flowing!!

Anyone else catch this? Interesting "retweet" by Valiant

Steven Stokes ‏@troll827
@ValiantComics Heard a rumor about your company putting in an offer to buy the rights to Turok,Solar,&Magnus. Any truth to that?

Retweeted by ValiantComics

[Carson]

Fingers crossed. I still think a future Valiant universe with Magnus is canon.

[Blood of Heroes]

Meh. I think they're better off without the GK3.

[Crow331]

Meh. I think they're better off without the GK3.

Yeah I kind of agree. They should save their money and put it towards more important things like talent and movies. It's funny when they first were relaunching we were all wondering if they could survive without the GK3 ... now we don't even want them back This launch has gone much better than any of us expected I think. The quality is top notch.
