They relaunched several of their titles in 2012 or 2013. I was reading Manowar then and did for a while, but lost track. I recently picked it back up again when I heard Valiant was starting some of those titles again in 2017. I started rereading Manowar and also looked into Bloodshot; which I really liked. My only complaint is I don't understand the timeline at all. The series is all over the map and the ending seems to be in the past. Hell, the series jumps all over the place time wise. It's hard to comprehend. In it, Bloodshot's name is revealed to be one thing and in the relaunch that started this year revealed to be another. I don't understand it at all.

Haven't read Valiant since I was picking up these; it's been a few years:  |

Which titles do you read? I recently finished the relaunch of Bloodshot. I saw that there is something called Bloodshot Reborn that recently started, but there's also another series from 2015 with the same name. I just started that one and at least one of my questions was answered. In the 2012-13 Bloodshot, Kozol gives Bloodshot a file that includes all of the details about his past. It's never addressed again in the entire series. Most of the rest of the series takes place in the past. The stories are very good and I like the character very much, but it's so out of order it's confusing. It was recently revealed in the 2015 series that I'm reading that he still hasn't read that file,, so at least that was answered. I also like Manowar and Unity, but aren't as far into the series because I was consumed by Bloodshot. |

Ok, so it's not just me. I recently started reading volume 3 of Bloodshot Reborn and the second or third chapter jumps 30 years into the future, while the previous chapters picked right up where volume 2 left off. The continuity is a legit mess. Great stories, but for some reason they feel the need to jump all over timeline wise..

Yes, I read modern Valiant. MOST, not all, of their books are actually really good. Its a shame that they cant compete against Marvel and DC, because they really deserve to be up there. Their universe is just as good overall. As of this writing their stands out for me are XO, Bloodshot and Divinity. Try those if you haven't already.
