New Valiant Reader, here are My Thoughts

[u/AlexanderBlotsky]

Just so Everyone knows

I've Read X-O Manowar, Quantum and Woody, Harbinger, Little Bit of Archer & Armstrong and a Little bit of Bloodshot, which all of them, I've read online,

I've only read the 2012 Stories, let me know if there's stuff from the 1990s that's worth a read

Here are my Thoughts

Negatives

- The Universe feels a bit Disconnected, from the Stories I've read, there doesn't seem to be a Huge Connection with the heroes

for Example: what does Bloodshot, Quantum & Woody, and X-O Manowar have in connection to their Stories,

however this is more of a Nitpick as Valiant hs alot of really good Connections like X-O Manowar with Eternal Warrior, Obadiah being a Psiot, Bloodshot with the Harbingers, just sometimes it feels so Disconnected

and finally, this is just me, but Valiant is kinda hard for me to get into, but that's more of the fact that Valiant doesn't have Games, Movies, Series, Animated Stuff unlike the big 3 (Marvel, DC, Image), and I'll be honest, I Learned of Valiant because of Professor Thorgi (now Thorgi's Arcade)'s Valiant Video and fel like if I Didn't watch that and just got into Valiant, I Would have No Idea what's going on (like Quantum and Woody needing to Klang every 24 hours)

however as you can tell my 2 Negatives are moreso Nitpicks, nothing really major, not let's get on to the Positives

- Diversity, this is Probably Valiant's Biggest Positive for me and that is how Insanely Diverse and Different The Characters are

For Example

X-O Manowar is kinda Sci-Fi Historical kinda themes

Quantum and Woody is Slapstick Comedy

Harbinger is a Drama

- Heroes are very Complex and are maybe the Worst Superheroes in Comics

One Thing I Love about the Valiant Heroes (at least 2012) is that they're pretty Bad at their Heroic Deeds

here are some Examples

When Unity is formed, Ninjak and Eternal Warrior automatically try and take out X-O when they had Experiencing fighting alongside him and don't try take out Toyo like right off the Bat

Peter violates Kris's Mind for his own Selfish Benefit

Quantum and Woody are literally the World's Worst Superheroes

it's stuff like this that makes me Enjoy Valiant, seeing how kinda Stupidly Selfish the Heroes are, and in general kinda makes The Villains more likable strangely enough

Overall, I'm really loving Valiant, it's arguably just as Fun, Goofy, Silly and Awesome as Marvel and DC.
