VALIANT had a management change that had/has many diehards leery, me included.
That said they are still publishing material. They are re-tooling another 90s concept for a December launch, The Visitor.
They have something fairly big forthcoming that they are teasing on Twitter.
They also just two weeks ago released their 4th Classic Omnibus, Bloodshot. The Dlxs keep coming.
A "jumping off" point, I mean sure, in the sense Marvel or DC might have one but the universe is still growing and building. One could've left after say the "All New" era but things kept developing. Same for Valiant, wherever you left the rest of us kept watching things grow and evolve. Come on back anytime.
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" - Optimus Prime
I wish there was a way Valiants Magnus Robot Fighter run could
Be collected in omnibus
That was a lot fun, especially the first 25 issues or so;
Same for Solar Man Of The Atom.
^^^^^
My the comic gods hear this request!!
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" - Optimus Prime
At the mention of the name "Turok", the choir said "Amen".

Hey guys what are everybody’s thoughts on Archie? The reboot that was started with Mark Waid, I’ve noticed that they’re putting that run out in “varsity editions” which look pretty nice. What are people’s thoughts on this series? How long is the run and is it still ongoing now?
I've read the first Varsity edition. It was fairly cheap for a deluxe but it feels a bit cheap too, especially the paper but I've seen worse.
The story is fun but it's more cartoony and simplistic than I've expected. Not in a bad way, but I really felt like I was watching a Sunday morning cartoon written by a really good writer who is fully aware he is writing a cartoon.
I'll get the second volume because it was enjoyable but I have other slice of life type comics I enjoy more (Giant days being my favorite, This one summer, Sunstone, Kiss number 8)

Yes, Incorruptible. They have a crossover, IIRC it's two issues, but they recap the gist of Incorruptible, so you don't have to read it to understand Irredeemable.
It's a very good series tho (especially when Marcio Takara takes over on art, there were a few dodgy ones before) but I don't think there is any bigger edition other than the 7 tpbs.
