Only The Valiant

It’s time for our 24th episode, and an in-depth look at one single issue, the eponymous Rai #0! We discuss:

• The impact this issue had at the time, and our initial reactions when it came out
• The story nuggets in this book, and where they show up in other Valiant books
• The final fate of Shadowman… or not!
• Inconsistencies between this book and later Valiant material
• The auspicious editor column in this issue
• Our One Year Anniversary! Congratulations us!
• A brand new segment, Recent Reads
• …and a whole lot more! This is a long one, buckle up!

We take you back to December, 1993, a month when the Valiant Universe celebrated Christmas. We explore the Valiant holiday season. This is the perfect episode to go along with your favorite comics, staying warm by the fire, and enjoying a cup of cocoa (or something stronger!). The weather outside is frightful, but this episode is so delightful. This episode has all the Valiant goodness you could hope for.

In this episode, we discuss the epic storyline, Unity. We talk about the story, the history behind it, and compare it to other crossovers. This story still holds up as one of the greatest comic cross overs ever.
