[Dallow Spicer1]

"Fun" is my highest praise when I'm talking comics.

So, it sounds as if Resurgence may be a reboot ("Doctor Silk [...] gains the means to reshape the very fabric of the Valiant Universe itself, unleashing a threat of unprecedented magnitude"), but what kind of reboot will it be?

[ManofTheAtom]

It would be funny if the means that allow Silk to reshape the very fabric of the VALIANT Universe was a fusion reactor, lol...

[Chiclo]

It would be funny if the means that allow Silk to reshape the very fabric of the VALIANT Universe was a fusion reactor, lol...

Or a wish granting machine. Like the Cosmic Cubes!

Well, Phil's reactor was a wish granting machine. So it was his version of a cube.

For me, the ideal "reboot" is one that integrates all three iterations of the VALIANT Universe into one, with priority given to the VEI iteration because it is the most recent.

In such a scenario, for instance, Archer's parents would be preachers that abuse children who murder Obadiah after he discovers their secret as portrayed in the VH 1 version but they would also be leaders of the Dominion that is a part of the Sect as portrayed in the VEI version.

Likewise, Bloodshot would be mobster Angelo Mortalli who the Mafia family he testifies against sells off to Project Rising Spirit (a Japanese company owned by Iwatsu, a man obsessed with immortality) as depicted in the VH 1 version, but he would also be Raymond Garrison, an undercover government operative who infiltrated the Mafia as depicted in the VH 2 version.

Things of that nature.

It seems from the solicits that the event involving Dr. Silk takes place in the present-day comics.

Here are the questions;

Will the outcome of the event affect the future-set comics like Rai? If so, how?

Has the event already taken place from Rai's perspective, or do the present and future exist simultaneously and concurrent with each other?

Is time absolute?

Things of that nature.

How would you explain Bloodshot being both Angelo Mortalli and Raymond Garrison? Split personality or something else?

[Chiclo]

What was it they said about Akklaim? A distant fart at midnight?

Think Wiseguy. As depicted in VH 2 Bloodshot, Raymond Garrison would infiltrate the mob using the identity of Angelo Mortalli. Then, as depicted in Bloodshot #0, he would testify against the crime families, be captured, and sold off to the Iwatsu corporation to be experimented on as part of Project Rising Spirit.

Just ignore the DOA and Project Lazarus from VH 2 and restore Iwatsu and Rising Spirit.

I don't recall that, heh.

Nice. Let's go with it. I expect a script for the first issue on my desk by next Monday.
