If I'd had your experiences there maybe I'd feel the same way you guys do, I don't know. I've been there a long time and nothing about the place bothers me. I like it.

I ain't trying to stop you or anybody else from going there. The focus of the thread is VEI and its only natural to bring up vf.com because of their huge alliance with VEI when VIP was trying to challenge them. Im just wondering if the same challenge is put up with Dark Horse? Do the board members still want to rally behind VEI and post "Say no to Dark Horse" type posts like they did for VIP? Or are they jumping loyalty ships and are full gung ho behind Dark Horse now that it appears they are more likely to deliver than VEI is?

Many of the members there seem to indicate they're going to be buying the Dark Horse stuff.

Not that they could have done anything, but I always wondered why there was so much animosity towards VIP? When it comes down to it, the more chances I got to get what I want, the better. But truthfully, I never really thought VIP or VEI could get it done right.

VF.com did start a new board today for Dark Horse's Gold Key characters. Requests for such a board were coming from board members, at least one even calling it a problem there wasn't one. The new board is titled "Magnus, Solar, and Turok at Dark Horse"

Defiant1 Too bad Next Men is at IDW now. Or at least a pair of B&W trades reprinting the entire DH run.

Or at least a pair of B&W trades reprinting the entire DH run. That's fine. IDW is doing a lot of things that they need to do. I've always felt they were making a good footprint on the market. My point was that people aren't traitors for supporting Jim Shooter or Dark Horse in general. As I posted on another board, I'm convinced that VEI was just planning to flip the properties anyway.. valiantcollectorssociety.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3456675&trail=30Defiant1

Sometimes I wish the Dark Horse books were coming out in another month or two rather than the announcement now and the books coming out "sometime" in 2010 maybe. If a book was coming out in the next month or 2 or 3, we'd be ordering and waiting and buying and reading and discussing THAT universe in its current existence rather than having all these "Valiant" fantasies. Its too much time to get all worked up, expectant and trembling with "what ifs".
I'm actually wishing for another big announcement elsewhere over something else so their is 2 things to be excited about in the future. Wouldn't that be something? 2 things to be excited about in the comics world! Is there any other buzz going on at the moment or this it?

Wouldn't that be something? 2 things to be excited about in the comics world! Is there any other buzz going on at the moment or this it? I actually dread the thought of buying new comics every week. I don't want to feel obligated to set aside the money and spend it. I dread the thought of showing up and listening to gamers talk about card games, hit points, or hero clix. I dread just spending the gas to make a weekly trek to the store. These are all things I haven't been dealing with and now I'll have to do it again. I lost all Valiant fantasies long ago when I watched everyone sucking up to Kevin Vanhook and Bernard Chang on the Valiant board. Neither of them represent the Valiant I liked, so I know it'd be impossible to start fresh without any criticism from someone. It's a lot like the way this last Terminator movie killed the whole franchise for me. It was so stupid, I just don't care anymore. Defiant1
