Hello! Welcome! I'm glad you found the Valiant thread! We'd love to hear your thoughts on everything! I think chronological order is a great idea. What have you read so far? And what are you most excited for?
Hello! If you're interested in some series that will lead in to Secret Weapons, check out Unity Vol. 1. It's amazing and Livewire is a main character. Divinity is also really good and highly recommended if you want to understand more about Eternity.
Yea, Bloodshot and HARD Corps is pretty fun but that's about it. I agree on all points except the Bart Sears art. I hated it. It was just the perfect send off to a series with lackluster art all around imo.
I agree with everything you just said. I'm not a huge fan of Shadowman (or any magic-related superhero really), so don't take my opinion to seriously, but I would like to see a return to basics, like the 90's Shadowman: New Orleans, Jazz, etc. I haven't ever said that about a Valiant series, but this is the one occasion in which the original was exceedingly better than the reboot.
Well it definitely says "The Search Begins this Winter" on the ad, so I doubt that this will come out in August. Valiant has been known to screw with our heads though (Harbinger: Renegade[s]), so who knows.
They said the mystery book will be revealed in August, which means that will be after the events of Massacre Pt. 1, so I'm thinking it will be directly related to psiots in some way. spoilers:end of spoilers
I'm rooting for Imperium #17
