By Jared Cornelius In the summer of 2012 Valiant Comics returned from the grave, they rose not as shambling zombie, but as a glorious phoenix, but I didn't know that.  At the time I had turned my nose up at X-O Manowar and Bloodshot, I scoffed at the idea that the 90's were back and expected another round of Malibu or Awesome Comics.  But last year on a whim I decided to[...]

Either way, it doesn't end well for the salmons, does it? X-O Manowar weighs in on that situation rather violently. Did anyone not see the big red reset head button in Batman/Superman coming?

Learn to count, Conan. X-O Manowar expands the immigration policy of the United States Of America It won't last. While Bloodshot And The HardCorps brings back a familiar, if not entirely welcome, face. Yours alone, Morbius, The Living Vampire? Easily achieved, your book is cancelled with this issue And no one will bother you again… So, apparently this comic[...]

Although in Daredevil, Waid seems to be channeling Kieron Gillen rather than Karen Gillan. X-O Manowar seems to make a statement that fits so many, many alien invasion plots of late Secret Invasion? Right here. Amanda Waller makes quite the threat to Green Arrow in Justice League Of America If it were a male character making[...]

Rather than a thematic title, it's actually the name of the new superhero team in the Valiant Universe, comprised of Toyo Harada, Livewire, Ninjak and the Eternal Warrior, with a mission to defeat X-O Manowar. It feels a bit like Avengers #1, doesn't it? Although, maybe not… "They don't hang out in the penthouse of a high-rise[...]

The company achieved fast success and, in 1994, was purchased by Acclaim Entertainment—but when Acclaim closed shop a decade later, the Valiant Universe was put on hold, until the firm reformed as Valiant Entertainment in 2005. Last summer, Valiant relaunched its comic line with a marketing initiative dubbed the "Summer of Valiant." That lineup began with[...]

Looks like it's sushi for Martian lunch today. Great pull-back-and-reveal in Godzilla Rulers of the Earth #1… but what happened to little lizard? Or "Gozuki" as I know have to call him? It's not much of a choice, is it X-O Manowar? The X-O Manowar armor is essentially a god these aliens — and some of them[...]

A couple of days ago, we ran a piece that compared a character on the cover of Nightwing to X-O Manowar Valiant people seemed to see the similarity. Brett Booth, artist of the issue, didn't quite see the same, and sent Bleeding Cool the design of the full character to compare and contrast… A couple of[...]

  Seriously, Nightwing? Why the hell are you beating up on X-O Manowar? What has that cross between Iron Man and Fred Flintstone ever done to you? Although it's not the only tribute being played to Valiant by the Big Two in February…   Seriously, Nightwing? Why the hell are you beating up on X-O Manowar?[...]

X-O Manowar launched in the marketplace in a rather strong way for a license that many had thought was on the back burner, with a creative team that the kindest would not call A-List from an independent publisher in the back of the back of the catalogue With a market-busting 40,000 copies. Some thought that the[...]
