Poll Valiant vs Image (57 votes)
I thought I'd mix things up a little. I will always side for Valiant on anything so they have my vote.

Haven't read any titles from either company, but I have been thinking about testing the waters with them. Any recommendations?
Old Valiant or New
Old Valiant has Solar and that wins anything
New Valiant has Bloodshot and Shadowman so again Valiant!

I only read X-O Manowar, but I recommend it!
I vote Valiant because quality > quantity.

Valiant:
Harbinger and Bloodshot are the best title IMO. If you love the X-Men, you should definitely check Harbinger. Bloodshot is fun and very good. If you want to check the Harbinger Wars story arc(first crossover by Valiant), it's beautiful and a 10/10.
Then you have X-O Manowar and Eternal Warrior who are more adventure and violence.
Quantum and Woody + Archer and Armstrong are very good too.
Shadowman is average, but they are trying to fix it.
You have an upcoming crossover name Unity. It's coming November 5 i think and it's going to be the second crossover by Valiant.
At Image i only read Invincible, but i dropped it not long ago because i feel it's going downhill.
Image has Walking Dead and Invincible they STOMP.
I like Eternal Warrior and what ive read of XO Manowar and Shadowman though
Why does it have to be one or the other?
Gives peeps stuff to argue about ;)

This is my own personal hangup lol. I hate threads that pit one vs the other (who's a better character, what's a better publisher). There's enough of a divisive nature between fans anyways, which was always ridiculous to me :P We all like comics. We should all be happy that as a medium in a whole, they are doing well right now.
Butttt to play into the thread, Image.
@mercy_: you can view my status to see how I feel about the arguing around here :(
@jake_fury: AMEN
Overall, I'd go with Image due to being around longer and being the larger company right now. But Valiant is very good also.
@wolverine08: Harbringer is pretty good, so is Bloodshot, Eternal Warrior only has one issue out so far but it looks promising. I haven't read X-O Manowar yet but I hear it's good.
Image hands down...... They're putting out sooooooooo many great books right now. I read more Image books than Marvel and DC combined........
I pull 5-6 books from each a month so it really is a tie for me. However I voted for Valiant simply because they are building a wonderful universe and its been very organic. I love why Unity is being formed and if you've been reading XO Manowar you know it's probably what would really happen ; it doesn't feel forced. Image has awesome books that I can't wait. to read every month. Saga, East of West,Sheltered and Jupiters Legacy to name a few. I'm very excited about the future of both these companies and if you're not pulling multiple titles from these two every month you're really missing out. I loooove superhero comics but how many times you gonna read about Batman saving the citizens of Gotham again or the X-Men fighting each other( Im reading Battle of the Atom and loving it BTW) before you want to mix it up a bit.

I AM SO EXCITED FOR UNITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@sagejonathan: are you doin this because of my marvel vs dc
Haven't read any titles from either company, but I have been thinking about testing the waters with them. Any recommendations?
Dude from Image you should try Invincible, East of West, SAGA, and maybe check out Danger Club. From Valiant I only read X-O Manowar but Greg Pak just started Eternal Warrior last month.
@sagejonathan: no problem
Image. It's probably my favorite publisher right now. I also just started reading Valiant, only a few issues into Shadowman, Bloodshot, X-O, Quantum, and Harbringer so it's not a 100% fair battle.
But Image.
Invincible. Walking Dead. Lazarus. Chew. Need I go on?
@batmannflash@thefirstlantern@cheesesticks@mitran Thanks for the recommendations guys!
Before I said Image because of WD....now I say Image because of Saga, Nailbiter, Velvet, Invincible and The Wicked/The Divine.
