Quantum and Woody is pretty fun. While I haven't gotten up to date with things, Archer and Armstrong is the only title I haven't read any of yet. And I guess it ties into Eternal Warrior which comes out soon and I will be picking up.
Pretty much all of Valiant's stuff is gold, so I guess I gotta round it out by getting the A&A trades now.
Practice Round, my blog where I talk (mostly) about comics.
Archer and Armstrong was Valiant's most fun book until Quantum and Woody. A&A still has plenty of other things going for it plus the fun, so it's not going to miss the "most fun" title.
I got to talk to Joshua Dysart about comics at projectcomiccon.com/.
He is the award winning writer of the Harbinger. He said that the crossover does jump from both books. Also that Shadowman is will have a new writer..Peter Milligam! usatoday.com/story/life/2013/09/03/shadowman-comic-book-series/2756687/. Shadowman will get darker. Joshua loves Peter's work, So we talked about a crossover between both Harbinger and Shadowman.
Hopefully that will come to pass.
I just want to say that when Valiant had their Unity sale and all their comics were $0.99.... I kinda bought everything from their new series' on sale.

I'm broke and shouldn't be spending money.
But I totally bought the new issues of X-O from between this and their last 99 cent sale...
....and all of Harbinger and Harbinger war, which I always thought looked fuck-all awesome when I worked at a shop. That mean's I'm following 4 Valiant books now (X-O and Harbinger whenever these sales pop up, and A&A and Q&W in print monthly). I'm pretty interested in Unity, although I need to catch up on X-O and Harbinger before I read it, so I'll probably be waiting for their NEXT comixology sale to give it a try.
I am super looking forward to Rai. I don't know much but from the wiki article it sounds pretty cool, if the revamp is anything like the old book. Also I really love Clayton Crain's art. Super excited.

If you haven't started reading the new Valiant stuff yet for whatever reason, you need to get in on the current humble book bundle which has the first two trades of almost all of their current series, and digital versions of their classic series hardcovers at the $15 level.
Wow, the Humble Bundle was a great idea. This is all some very nice stuff. Bloodshot and Archer and Armstrong might be my favorites, but I'm impressed by the lot of it.
Edit: I think what strikes me most is how current it all seems. Like Valiant stuff was always a favorite of mine back when it was first coming out, and the new releases just make it clear how much they already had a handle on so much of what makes modern comics tick. They barely alter most of the concepts to fit them into the new era.

I'm going to Master Darque this thread back to life.
I've enjoyed Q&W 2 so far. The humor in it is exellent.

It could happen. Shadowman would look cooler in a trenchcoat.

So if you like writing Fan Fiction, this might be for you.
So excuse me while I write my Shadowman 700 page Magnum Opus.

Looks like Turok is being published again by another publisher...Dynamite Entertainment.

He knows what he did.
And on the newer side of things...
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
Doctor Mirage just never clicked with the rest of the Valiant books back then, so I'm curious to see if JVM makes it work this time.
I joked about the second coming of Doctor Mirage. Looks like he/she is making a comeback.
