>"With 'The Future of Valiant,’ Valiant is entering an ambitious new phase – one that will challenge not only the size and scale of the stories we choose to tell, but even the very notion of what a Valiant comic can be," said Dinesh Shamdasani, the company's CEO/CCO. "In just a short time, Valiant has established itself as the industry's best reviewed publisher and a creative force to be reckoned with. Now, with 'The Future of Valiant,' we're taking the mission of creating the best comics possible even further, and expanding with astonishing new concepts, a bold line-up of new characters, and one of the most talented rosters of creative talent working anywhere today."

>"Within the past year alone, Valiant has made unprecedented strides by bringing some of comics' most celebrated characters to the fore. But Divinity and Faith were just the first salvos," said Valiant Editor-in-Chief Warren Simons. "In 'The Future of Valiant,’ we're about to witness the next great Valiant heroes of tomorrow come roaring out of the gate with Generation Zero, Britannia, and Savage. And we haven't even revealed the full extent of what's coming for Bloodshot U.S.A. and Harbinger Renegades, let alone the universe of new ideas that is Divinity III: Stalinverse… For new fans or old, this is a phenomenal time to find out why Valiant has succeeded in building the most acclaimed and accessible line of comics on the shelves."

If you have a problem... If your parents won’t help… And if your cause is worthy… Log onto network #ZERO…because Generation Zero is listening.

Years ago, the children of the experimental strike team known as Generation Zero were taken from their families by Project Rising Spirit, a private weapons contractor, and raised to be psychic soldiers. After years of taking orders, they have fought for and won their freedom. Now, the world’s most wanted teenagers have pledged to protect each other tooth and claw, while using their extraordinary abilities to right wrongs for a generation without a future… To fight for kids, just like them.

One of those kids is Keisha Sherman, whose boyfriend just turned up dead after a suspicious car crash in Rook, Michigan – a newly booming tech town that sprang from rags to super-riches seemingly overnight. When Keisha makes a desperate plea into her webcam, the local high school suddenly finds itself with several unusual new students… But as word of Generation Zero’s presence spreads rapidly through the halls, this volatile band of teenage upstarts is about to discover that they’re far from the most extraordinary thing lurking behind Rook’s stainless-steel facade..

STANDALONE EVENT SERIES | BEGINNING OCTOBER 2016

In Bloodshot we trust!

Project Rising Spirit – America's greatest exporter of classified weapons technology – has achieved a breakthrough: a contagious, airborne nanite dispersion prototype that can turn the population of any city into an army of indestructible soldiers. A doomsday virus capable of destroying an enemy nation from the inside out. A machine-made pathogen that can completely rewrite human physiology…and hardcode every man, woman, and child with the same cutting-edge technology that created their greatest weapon: Bloodshot.

But now...Project Rising Spirit's top-secret contagion has been released onto the streets of America's greatest metropolis: New York City. As mayhem engulfs Manhattan, Bloodshot must lead the most dangerous invasion ever waged on American soil and keep a runaway pandemic from toppling armies and governments...and threatening to destroy humanity itself.

In the tradition of THE VALIANT, the Big Apple turns blood red in pivotal new standalone comics event from New York Times best-selling writer Jeff Lemire (BLOODSHOT REBORN, Extraordinary X-Men) and superstar artist Doug Braithwaite (ARMOR HUNTERS, Justice)!

A new Harbinger series.

HARBINGER RENEGADES #1
Written by RAFER ROBERTS
Art & Cover by DARICK ROBERTSON
ONGOING SERIES | BEGINNING NOVEMBER 2016

Anyone you know could become a psionically powered "harbinger" with the potential to reshape the course of human history. Your neighbor. Your boss. Your best friend. Your kids.

Six months ago, a secret team of renegade whistleblowers leaked the existence of these extraordinarily dangerous individuals to a stunned world. Today, all across the country, crude, DIY psiot activation attempts have left hundreds brain damaged…or worse. The emergence of a new psiot in a community often leads to riots and mass violence. Gun sales are through the roof.

America is terrified of what could happen next.

With this revolutionary upheaval now in motion, Kris Hathaway, John "Torque" Torkelson, Faith "Zephyr" Herbert, and Peter Stanchek are about to discover their calling. Together, the HARBINGER RENEGADES are moving from town to town, building their ranks, and subverting authority one mind at a time…and setting out to prove once and for all that behind their power, there has always been a purpose.

This November, the most fearless superteam in comics is going underground for AN ALL-NEW ONGOING SERIES from rising star Rafer Roberts (A&A: THE ADVENTURES OF ARCHER & ARMSTRONG) and superstar artist Darick Robertson (Happy!, The Boys)!

Dragons instead of dinosaurs?

Post that link after the storytime next time

That's it.

Now feel free to discuss, bump, etc.

Did you guys see that video Rich (yes, that Rich) made opening the Valiant 4001 vault? He deleted it hours later, I don't know why.

He showed some of the items but not all of them.

Dude he was in front of the camera all the time, he even put on the sunglasses and sunscreen that were included inside.

Because of you, I cleared up my post:

He set it to private. Again Rich is a faggot for forgetting to hide his face during his unboxing, or not just taking pics of the contents.

Sauce: archive.is/wCxAg

What a boob.

Why would he hide his face? I don't understand what you're saying. He clearly meant to take credit for the leak.

Anyway, that's irrelevant... I just wonder why he deleted it. He wouldn't do that for a Marvel or DC spoiler, why would he do it for Valiant? Just curious.

>He wouldn't do that for a Marvel or DC spoiler, why would he do it for Valiant?
Because he fears that he would get BTFO by Valiant

Maybe they actually have really good lawyers.

Stalinverse exclusive reveal: nerdist.com/matt-kindt-talks-divinty-iii-stalinverse-and-the-world-of-valiant/

Rai and Bloodshot are one of the few books that I "have" to follow every month and it excites me to no end to see what Valiant are doing with them. And I really hope they can redeem Shadowman, because damn if I'm not a huge fan of Jack Boniface, Darque, and very idea of Deadside

>Deadside

Recently featured in Ninjak

Yes, I also read Ninjak as well and it was enjoyable to see Kindt write Jack and Punk Mambo competently, unlike Milligan

bump

No Valiantfags are around today.
