review 1: I always avoided the old Valiant series. For some reason it just never looked interesting. I also hated the coloring. Anyway, I heard great things about the current run and gave it a shot. I was definitely impressed and will continue reading. Great artwork and interesting story. Kind of reminds me of Green Lantern if his ring gave him an Iron Man-type suit. Also, it has aliens and time travel. What's not to love?!
review 2: I spent some time with Valiant in the 90s as a kid. I had an X-O Manowar poster, and even his weird crossover Playstation game with Iron Man. When the "Summer of Valiant" happened, it was almost surreal to see new takes on characters I had grown to see as dated. This reboot is wonderful, re-inventing some truly unique concepts that were well... more worth revisiting. The time-displaced barbarian in plant-monster ritual armor is an awesome character, that still has a lot to offer the comic book world. I am stoked for his return. less
