I thought we could do a book a day (that way people can read one every day or catch up on weekends), talk about it on its own, in the context of whats next, in regards to what expectations it creates and vote on how good it is. I don't have to be the one that posts everyday. If I miss a day or if someone wants to take over please do

For voting think of your single favourite comic book (not just VALIANT) as the benchmark - thats a 10 - and grade according to that.

Make sure to mention what you like'd about the book, what you didn't, what you wish they would have done, your favourite panels, lines of dialogue, little bits of trivia etc.

This issue was Ok, but I was expecting a little more than what it delivered in the end. I'm not big on the idea of having a personality inside of the armor that conflicts with Aric’s wishes(especially since we all know what happens later on). As I've said before I think it was foolish to destroy Shanhara so soon in the series just to get a "pop" out of the storyline they were on at the time.

I agree. :thumb:
Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?

X-O 1/2 should be read before this one.

Randy is just plain silly in this issue. Aric does not contribute much to the story. And then there's more setting up the Wolfbridge story.
