Then, join an all-star roster of Valiant staff and creators on Sunday, June 7th at 1:30 pm and jump into summer’s most anticipated comic book event with the Valiant 25th Anniversary Celebration panel presentation! Everything you need to know about the unstoppable event series BOOK OF DEATH and what’s coming next for the Valiant Universe’s greatest heroes starts right here with an all-star panel presentation featuring writers Fred Van Lente (ARCHER & ARMSTRONG) and Amy Chu (X-O MANOWAR #38), Valiant Editor-In-Chief Warren Simons and Valiant Chief Creative Officer Dinesh Shamdasani.
So let it be written… So let it be done… This summer, the next two thousand years of Valiant history collides with the most powerful heroes of today in BOOK OF DEATH #1 (of 4) – the 40-PAGE FIRST ISSUE of Valiant’s cataclysmic event from New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (ARMOR HUNTERS, Green Lantern) and earth-shaking artists Robert Gill (ETERNAL WARRIOR) and Doug Braithwaite (UNITY)!
The Valiant heroes. X-O Manowar. Bloodshot. Ninjak. The Harbinger Renegades. Unity. This is how they lived. This is how they died.
Now we know. The Book of the Geomancer has recorded it all. But only a young girl – the last in a line of the enigmatic mystics who protect the Earth known as Geomancers – has seen this future come to pass, from the coming cataclysm to the dawn of the 41st century. Alone with her sworn protector, the Eternal Warrior – a soldier battle-forged across five thousand years of combat – the duo must defy their allies to stop the Dark Age that now threatens to eclipse our world.
Together, they are the number one target of every hero and villain on Earth. Either the Eternal Warrior hands her over…or they take him down. But can even he single-handedly protect one child when the entire Valiant Universe wages war against him?
Find out on July 15th in BOOK OF DEATH #1 (of 4) – and get your first clues of what’s to come this weekend at Special Edition: NYC 2015! We’ll see you in New York!
