“Any opportunity that we get to be on the ground floor with our readers and fellow creators is very important to us, so we want to make sure we reward them for visiting us at shows,” explains Alien Books Director Matias Timarchi. “We hope to see many Valiant fans stop by our booth at San Diego for both the creator signing events and the special ashcan editions of BLOODSHOT and RESURGENCE. It’s a very exciting time to be a Valiant Comics fan!”
