Valiant launches it first super team book.
UNITY is a new monthly series by Matt Kindt, Doug Braithwaite and Brian Reber starting Wednesday.
Harbinger lead villain Toyo Harada unites the most lethal team the Valiant Universe has ever known to kill X-O Manowar!
Livewire, Ninjak and the Eternal Warrior join Harada’s mission. As you can see by this roster UNITY will not be a “feel-good” buddy team.
“There’s a reason Valiant never had a team like this throughout its history — these characters aren’t friends,” said Valiant Executive Editor Warren Simons told AP. “They don’t hang out in the penthouse of a high-rise waiting for the Valiant-phone to alert them to trouble. These are hard men and women. They’re dangerous and a lot of them are killers, and putting them in a room together is a violent proposition.”
Harada assembles his team when X-O Manowar carved out a new home for his people.
“He’s desperately trying to save what’s left of his people, and he’ll use force to achieve his goals. Toyo Harada — a child of the bomb — has dedicated his life to achieving peace by any means necessary,” said Simons. “He will not view X-O Manowar trying to conquer Romania — which is an event at the heart of Unity— as a good thing. And neither will the Russians.”
“UNITY is the single biggest thing that Valiant has thrown its weight behind since the launch of the company with X-O Manowar #1,” said Valiant CEO and Chief Creative Officer Dinesh Shamdasani. “If you’ve heard the buzz about Valiant, if you’ve seen the incredible reviews, but have yet to try one of our titles, UNITY #1 is the perfect starting point. Matt Kindt and Doug Braithwaite are crafting an incredibly daring, action-packed epic from page one. UNITY is the very definition of can’t miss comics.”
Artist Doug Braithwaite and colorist Brian Reber are now Valiant-exclusive creators, joining Cary Nord (X-O Manowar) and Joshua Dysart (Harbinger, Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps) on Valiant’s growing roster of exclusive talent.
UNITY #1 arrives Wednesday.
