Valiant Entertainment; $4.99

If you don’t already know we love Valiant’s X-O Manowar, you just haven’t been reading Scoop long enough. Here are the quick highlights: Great, succinct. Short stories and a main feature. The re-cap of the origin and the other stories exploring the various parts of Aric’s history were superb. They were very accessible to new readers and yet not boring to those of us who have been along for the ride.

In their collage of all the X-O Manowar covers to date, our friends at Valiant remembered their details and included X-O Manowar Overstreet’s FAN Edition #1 in the gallery. That really made our day.
