ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT #1

This July, VALIANT FIRST is recruiting a whole new echelon of heroes
into the fight against the all-out might of the ARMOR HUNTERS!

 

Here are previews for two miniseries leading out of Valiant’s Armor Hunters summer crossover event – Armor Hunters: Bloodshot #1 & Armor Hunters: Harbinger #1 both to be released in July 2014.

 

Press Release

Out of the earth-shattering events of ARMOR HUNTERS #1 (of 4), the summer’s biggest crossover event continues with two essential mini-series at the epicenter of X-O Manowar’s battle against a relentless team of hunter-killers who will stop at nothing to rid the universe of his armor’s incalculable destructive power.

First, on July 23rd, Project Rising Spirit’s most dangerous soldier brings the hunt to the hunters in ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT #1 (of 3) by fan favorite writer Joe Harris (Great Pacific, The X-Files: Season 10) and superstar artist Trevor Hairsine (X-Men: Deadly Genesis)!

Then, on July 30th, the breakout stars of last summer’s HARBINGER WARS – the volatile psiot strike force known as Generation Zero – step out of the shadows and into the crosshairs of a devastating extraterrestrial attack in ARMOR HUNTERS: HARBINGER #1 (of 3) by New York Times best-selling writer Joshua Dysart (Harbinger) and rising star Robert Gill (Batgirl)!

Start reading here to begin two all-new, entirely self-contained adventures at the heart of Valiant’s blockbuster summer event – or follow the complete ARMOR HUNTERS saga across ARMOR HUNTERS, UNITY, X-O MANOWAR, ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT, and ARMOR HUNTERS: HARBINGER! With each introductory issue featuring one of five limited edition Chromium covers by some of the biggest talents in comics today – including Jorge Molina (X-Men), Mico Suayan (Ultimate Cataclysm), Clayton Crain (RAI), Philip Tan (Green Lantern), and Lewis LaRosa (Punisher MAX) – each armor-plated ARMOR HUNTERS issue represents an all-new jumping-on point for Valiant’s star-studded crossover epic.

Retailers will be eligible to “Unlock Chromium” based on their orders of ARMOR HUNTERS #1 (of 4), UNITY #8, X-O MANOWAR #26, ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT #1 (of 3), and ARMOR HUNTERS: HARBINGER #1 (of 3). After “unlocking” each separate title, qualifying retailers may order as many Chromium editions of the corresponding title as they like. Retailers be advised: due to the lead time needed to manufacture this special cover process, print runs for all five ARMOR HUNTERS CHROMIUM EDITIONS have already been set. Supplies are robust but limited, and allocations may occur. If allocations do occur, they will be made based on initial orders.

In 2014, there are six new reasons to read Valiant FIRST! All summer long, Valiant will be rocketing to the top of your read pile with VALIANT FIRST – an all-new initiative unleashing a major #1 issue each month from May onward by some of the most talented creators in comics.
