So, Is This Where I Say Hi?

Post by Serpymatt »

Hiyas all! I guess this is the section I'll introduce myself :)

I go by SerpyMatt and I've been a Valiant fan for quite a while... I still remember getting my hands on my first Previews catalog in high school and having my eyes opened to SO many more comics than just Marvel and DC :)

My main Valiant interest is Shadowman, but a few years ago, I got rid of all my comics (regretting it big time now). As of now, I'm 4 issues away from completing the entire Shadowman run and my local comic book owner is gonna check her back issue section for me tomorrow! *crosses fingers*

As for my next set, I'm considering Solar or Harbinger... those were the other two I mainly read, but grazed on a few X-O and Magnus here and there and may give them another look... any suggestions would be awesome :)

Well, I'll stop this long-winded post here... glad to have found this place. Sooooo much awesome info here :)

And for GOD'S SAKE, whatever you do, don't listen to a WORD I say! I'm full of BS, as anyone can tell. ;)

Ah, okie :) Actually, it's from GI Joe... combination of Serpentor and my real name, Matt :) I'm a big fan of 80's cartoons... mainly the villains, though :)

If you haven't read the X-O and Magnus preunity books you are in for a treat. In fact, have you read Unity?

I had one or two Unity trades waaaay back, but I really don't remember much about them. It' on my short list of things to try to find also :)

And thanks for the welcome everyone :)

Interesting saying. I'd never heard that one before.

I'll stick it away for future use :thumb:

That was an old sig line of yours? Doesn't ring any bells, sorry.

I don't remember the orgasm one either.

Maybe people just don't pay that much attention to sigs. If they did then SOMEONE would have stepped up and traded with me recently.

The jab comes from the old joke.

The one about the 300 lbs. Texas Lawyer who died and the undertaker couldn't fit him in the coffin. So, they gave him an enema and he fit in a shoebox!
