6 Reasons Valiant Will Be The Next Big Thing In Comics

6. They're Not Drowning In Continuity

DC comics tried to create a fresh start for themselves with the New 52 reboot a few years ago, but even that effort still had confusing bits of past stories hanging on and it was always unclear what made it through the reboot and what didn’t. Marvel has a habit of putting out new number ones of continuing series to attract new readers but all of them are still attached to the history of the previous books. All of this can lead to confusion and frustration on the part of the readers.

Since the 2012 relaunch, Valiant has made a concerted effort to keep their stories clear and their characters accessible. When their books and heroes do crossover, the other books are allowed to function outside of the crossovers or events. You can read the characters how you want to and follow the stories you want to. 

These characters have been around before the relaunch and those comics are out there if you want to hit the long boxes of back issues at your local shops, but if you just wanted to get into the current Valiant universe you won’t have near as high of a mountain to climb. Plus with digital comic availability, you won’t have to hit the long boxes unless you want to.
