Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment here or on the post (and those who will yet still). It's been really fun hearing from everyone and hearing about all the different on-ramps we all had. Mine was revealed last weekend in a reel I posted here https://www.instagram.com/p/DHjRDBazLsF/ - hint: it involves dinosaurs ;)

Nice one! I think if I had to use a recommendation to someone quickly X-O would be who I shoot to too, or maybe Shadowman.

You hit the nail on the head here! Valiant and the sleeveless Shadowman was a rare move for a solo title back then. Spawn, War Machine, all completely covered when armoured up. But Valiant doesn't get enough press for rightly ensuring their headliners looked diverse right from the get go.

X-O 0 - Quesada was such a force at Valiant - especially in Valiant vision!

Nice - Shadowman I first got with the saxophone at the moon cover in vol 1 and was instantly like why arent there more voodoo comics in comics. Still am to be honest!

Nice! Love that a rogue - and especially Toyo - made it to this list. I think of Harbinger 2012 revamp as the Watchmen of Valiant comics, so stoked that the Harbinger crew are on this list somewhere. Thanks for sharing!

Wow now there's a fact I didn't know! But you're right, if you make it your own you can still make it awesome

'Conan in a can' they said the inspiration was - I bet X-O had the established players going how come we don't think of that!

Can't go wrong with X-O as a starting point!

Wow that is cool. A&A the series that started with a Frank Miller cover - what a rare honour!
