While Team Valiant is on the ground this week for the ComicsPro conference in Atlanta, we’re not so busy that we spare a little time for our old friend Vincent Van Goat!
That’s right – James Asmus and Tom Fowler are reunited (and feel so good) for Quantum and Woody: Goat #0 – an all-new, standalone origin special detailing just how Valiant’s most epic of heroes made it from the barnyard to the history books. And, longtime Q&W fans, pay special attention…’cause this one comes with a twist…
Also hitting next week, Fred Van Lente and Pere Perez are launching the four-part Mission: Improbable crossover with Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps in Archer & Armstrong #18 – a great place to jump on board on both titles! And it has a John Woo-style fight sequence! With doves! Start the smash-up here, then follow it into next week’s Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps #20…
And, before we go, did you hear – we just unveiled the big news that the first wave of Armor Hunters titles will be sporting armor-plated chromium covers! Plus: a first look at Doug Braithwaite’s pages from Armor Hunters #1! Read all about it right here!
Now on with the comics!
