Niiice! That's a cool sketch

I wish they would have signed their sketches so we know who did them ... Although I could see why they wouldn't want to admit to drawing the potato ambulance one. :lol:

Hmm.. Was Ming Doyle at the VEI offices that day? :hm:

I kid. I kid. :kidaround:

That Lilt is an awesome one! and the mystery of who drew the unsigned one...these cover sketches have all sorts of levels of cool to them...I'm glad a lot of people like the coffee goat cover...maybe someone will have one I'll want to trade with :thumb: if not, I am happy with it...I didn't mean to complain or sully the moment. :oops: Valiant is amazing, this reward was way beyond anything I hoped for...the stamped and signed books are among my most treasured items!!

Wow, I have not received mine yet, but wow!

I will post a pic once I get mine for sure. :thumb:

Thanks again to everyone involved in this. The amount of time and effort put in by Bruce and Elery is just amazing. This is such a great community to be involved in. I don't know of any other comic company that is this appreciative to its fans. Big thanks all around :thumb:

:high-five: :clap:

I wanted to give a proper thank you to everyone who brought this together, especially Bruce. This is the most fantastic project I've been involved in. The special touches with the embossing and the especially special books, make this a treasure. I can imagine that all preparation for this was no small feat. For that hard work, I am very grateful. Thank you!

Personally, I'm super psyched to get the Las Vegas book. I never thought I was going to be able to track that one down for less than an outrageous price, and here I got one gratis! Amazing!

My take on the sketch covers is that they are hilarious. I like that they aren't the best drawings, and that they are a bit of a goof. Comics have a tradition of this type of humor. Excelsior! I hope it was fun for the Valiant crew. I can't imagine asking my team to take on a project like that. They would be like, "When am I going to have time to do 5 sketches?" Rai is my favorite character, so I'm pretty happy with mine. Maybe I should start commissioning pieces from the entire Valiant HQ staff. They aren't going to look like professional sketches, but who knows, it will be a cool and odd collectible in 10-20 years when the staff may be an entirely different crew.

Thank you all (especially Bruce)!

Can only agree with all the praise already given here. The effort made to gather such a prize and to motivate the fans is epic.

I got mine and can't believe how awesome this is! And I got a coffee variant that I think is hilarious! Not sure how to post pics though. Thank you once again to all involved. It means a lot that you'd spend your own time to coordinate all of this! You guys have been great through all of these shin-digs!

I took a quick look at my package last night (it's far too big to have taken in the whole thing—send that off to the quotes thread), and I got what appears to be a floor plan of the office. I'll scan or take a pic and post later.
