Rumors never start out of thin air. How would you guys feel about this? As always I reserve judgement until I read the story, but I don't know how thrilled I would be. Speculate away! Lol

I'm pretty sure that this is in the deadside and that he "dies" at the end of BOD.

Combine this with the article about a major female character in Valiant... and the skinny legs on the cover of that comic. :hm:

It does look like a battle on Deadside. Put some armor on Dr. (Mrs.) Mirage and you get a character like that one on the cover. :hm: :hm:

As much as I may hate to put a damper on this thread as I am you started it, LOL, the new issue of previews seems to pooh-pooh this one. The advanced solicit clearly states who it is. But maybe this wonderful rumor from our friends at bleeding cool have heard a rumor that may still be true but pertaining to another part of the story? I love the wild speculation so please by all means continue!

Some guy named Gilad Anni-Padda. I think there is a possibility that the new series may feature Gilad somewhere off-Earth as well as a new Eternal Warrior fighting Earth's battles. Maybe.

If Darque is corrupting the power of the Earth to combine with his power over Deadside, and if Gilad is able to defeat (at least temporarily) Darque, then there is the potential that Gilad gains power over Deadside (as well as being powered by the Earth) as a result.

In a preview for WOtEW #1 Gilad talks to his wife Leena about their son Kalem where she sais: "You know his place here is... complicated. It doesn't help that you haven't spoken to him about his lineage"

I personaly would prefer if Gilad stays as the Eternal Warrior but that quote could support this rumor :)

It is possible that he could pass the title on and then reclaim it later. That's how every other comic book works :)

I personally think Gilad will be the Eternal Warrior of this series, but who knows.

I wasn't impressed with the art in Bloodshot Reborn #5, but man, I'm loving it on this title.

well, if it were a female Eternal Warrior, then that might explain why the face, the boobs, and the legs are all in black on the main cover.
