Great looking stuff. I am late to the party but I'm loving Valiant so much from what I've read so far.

Good stuff

I'm worried about Milligan getting a lot of titles given his Shadowman run(probably the weakest of all valiant titles/runs/stories) but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

Eternal Warrior looks like a cool series. Never really got into Valiant but I've been trying to find some stuff. Been picking up the new Rai series which is pretty rad. The artwork is soooo good.

Bloodshot, Harbinger, Eternal Warrior, and X-O Manowar are all solid titles. Throw in Quantum & Woody and Archer & Armstrong for laughs and it makes for a pretty great line-up. Wish their publishing frequency was a little quicker though.

BTW, that Bloodshot ad above is hilarious!

Days of Steel looks great.

looking forward to Bloodshot #25 and the reboot Bloodshot Reborn thats being written by Matt Kindt. should be good.

Valiant Comics is looking pretty good

X-O Manowar has been one of my favorite runs ever. I have enjoyed what I have read of the other Valiant titles as well.

I love Valiant. They are my favorite publisher at the moment. I just wish more people would give them a chance.

@dman1366: Honestly, I was reluctant to give it a shot because some of the characters looked very 90s. I recently decided to jump in and I have come to love Valiant as well. Ordered a Shadowman t-shirt. I want all of the shirts on the Valiant site. It is quickly becoming my favorite publisher, right alongside Dark Horse, DC (for the characters, not necessarily the current climate of their books) and Image.

I know right?

Nice stuff.
