Listening to Dan......I'm more convinced than ever that he should run Valiant.

Also, I could just listen to him forever. How about an Rai Audiobook?

Can't wait for issue #6!

Let’s get Abnett on more books, he’s easily the best writer Valiant has right now.

I think he would be very capable of plotting an inter-connected Valiant universe while writing a book or two and editing other writers.

In theory, he would be the ideal "EIC" for the Valiant Universe.

He'd be the perfect guy to write another Unity book or to save X-O Manowar after 12 (8) "hopeless" issues.

He'd also be one of the guys who I would trust to come up with another Divinity/Unknown story.

Something I realized, first we had buddy book ARCHER AND ARMSTRONG, then came QUANTAM AND WOODY, and now XO MANOWAR AND SHANHARA

I wonder how long it will be until we see that byline in the comic cover.
I've been looking everywhere for the ultra-rare Turok vs Blister issue. Anybody able to help me out?

I think Abnett just gets Valiant. He understands that continuity has its place, and just how important it is for all of the Valiant characters. Maybe that's why there are a good amount of people that have enjoyed this Rai series, he just gets continuity.

Seeing Abnett on a Ninjak book, or something that brings the Valiant Universe of characters back together again would be sharp!
