Only The Valiant

We're back from San Diego Comic-Con, and we'd like to talk about it with the entire OTV crew. We talk about the future of Valiant, the Doctor Mirage preview, The map for three years of Rai, and a whole lot more. Plus, Recent Reads and OTV Rewards!

or this small talk, Sean talks to James Heffron at San Diego Comic Con. James runs Lawdog Comics, and is currently running a kickstarter campaign for his book, Gangs Of Camelot. James is a champion of the independent spirit of comics, so take a listen.

OTV presents the Valiant Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2014, followed by a round table of Valiant Fans (fams) to discuss the future that was hinted at. The panel spotlighted some of the amazing talent Valiant is working with, and we discuss the bright future presented by this panel.  

San Diego Comic-Con is in full swing. Elveen and Sean get together with friends Jordan and David Baron to talk about the con, SDCC rules, and our SDCC experience and how it changes. Also, Doctor Mirage #1 preview books are floating around, and we discuss this great first issue.

The End Times of Shadowman have arrived. We talk about the stuff we liked in this series, and discuss the things that don't quite work for us. Also, we discuss big news about The Valiant prestige series, X-O Manowar #0, and the Archer & Armstrong movie.

It's all Armor Hunters all the time! We discuss two great crossover issues: Unity #8, and X-O Manowar #26. It's a packed episode about two great issues. Also, we take a look at the latest Previews to get an idea of what's coming up for us in a couple months.

The past, the present, and the future collide in this episode, as we discuss the complete Trapped By Webnet arc in Unity 5, 6 and 7, then jump to the world of 4001 A.D. to discuss Rai 2. The doctor is in the house.

The Armor Hunters have made their first strike against the third planet of the Sol system, harboring the X-O Manowar armor infestation. We discuss Armor Hunters #1, and the anniversary extravaganza, X-O Manowar #25.

This one-shot fill-in episode features sean and Elveen, on the road home from Wizard World Sacramento. There's a whole lot of comic book talk in this long episode recorded on the I-5 freeway, including X-Men, Collecting Classic Valiant, what is in our personal collections, what it is like to transition from a collector to a dealer, and a whole lot more.

We discuss the Eternal Emperor, issues 5 through 8 of Eternal Warrior. What's up with Gil, why is the future the way it is, and how much do we adore his Granddaughter? Plus, some recent reads to chew on, and more.

The OTV crew tackles Mission: Improbable, the crossover that throws Archer against Bloodshot, with Armstrong and H.A.R.D. Corps covering mop up duty. We discuss the good, the bad and the ugly of this crossover.

Sean and CHiclo spend a few moments with Robert Venditti to discuss the characters from the upcoming Armor Hunters mega event coming from Valiant Comics this summer.

Death Omens! This episode is a double feature discussion of books leading to a very exciting Summer: First, Harbinger #22 makes us worried, anxious, and excited about what is coming up in the next few issues. Second, X-O Manowar #23 and #24 lead us in to the Armor Hunters mega event. Plus, Ask Chiclo and OTV Rewards!

The OTV crew reviews Shadowman 13 to 16, the first arc in a new, reimagined and expanded mythos for Shadowman, and for Jack. Also, a brand new segment, Chiclo discusses how he would publish comics, if he were to get his hands on one of the Valiant characters. All this plus the usual hijinks, rewards, and more.

One episode wasn't enough! We are starting a brand new feature, OTV Small Talks, with our further commentary on Rai #1 from Valiant Comics. Is Rai human? What are his abilities? What does Chiclo think of Rai #1? All this squeezed into a nice little package.

Rai #1 has charged into this world, and we are compelled to discuss it! Matt Kindt and Clayton Crain created an amazing comic book, and we take a good long look at this one. Rai, Lula, PTs, Psylocke, Father, and the Future of Japan. There is so much to discuss, so let's get to it!

It's time to settle this once and for all. Who is the most powerful in the Valiant Universe? We discuss all of your favorite characters, and finally cast our votes to determine who has the most power.

From Wondercon, The OTV crew and the Valiant crew sit down together after hours to discuss everything that Valiant has in the works, Rai, Armor Hunters, Harbinger, Doctor Mirage, and more. Robert Venditti, David Baron, Atom! Freeman, Hunter Gorinson, and Dinesh Shamdasani hang out and drop the Valiant knowledge. Contains some adult language. And sound effects.

The OTV crew discusses Harbinger: Bleeding Monk #0. This issue is a perplexing journey through time, and we decipher the truths of the Bleeding Monk that spans thousands of years.
