Ok, there is NO POSSIBLE WAY Image is that high on the list. I like them as much as anyone, but the odds of them legitimately out-scoring both Marvel AND DC (with BOTH publishers arguably in their prime at the moment) is not very likely.

Something doesn’t jive with this.

But at any rate, vote vote vote (and hope that valiant Votes don't mistakenly be scored as Image votes)

Other than arguing very highly about Marvel & DC being in the prime at the moment, I'm also a little suspicious of Image being THAT far ahead. But most of all I just wish they had actually spelled Valiant right. facepalm I joined their stupid forum just to complain about it.

Great to see all the votes. When I voted earlier Monday, only 50 or so had voted Valiant.

my first vote I was #59...but my next 9 votes? I have no idea...lol. If only I could find more ways to vote! As for Image being first? Out here in the L.A. area Image is very trendy. Looking at there slate of books it is impressive..Revival, Saga, Thief of Thieves, East of West, Black Science and that is a small sampling! I love Valiant but I will not begrudge anyone for their choices. I just choose Valiant! :thumb:

Image Comics is my favorite publisher. Saga alone would make it the best of the year, but with Walking Dead, East of West, Invincible, Velvet, Black Science, Peter Panzerfaust, Thief of Thieves, Witch Doctor, Manifest Destiny, Ghosted, Five Ghosts, The Bounce, Sex, Sex Criminals, Satellite Sam, and many, many more books. It's ridiculous the amount of unique, diverse and incredibly well done comics come out from them each month. Especially artwise. They now have some of the best artists in the industry working there. The books are only getting better each month.

Valiant is a close second. It satisfies my comic shared universe fix very well, since I don't read any Marvel or DC books, unless they're from Vertigo or Icon.
