DEATH HAS BEEN CONQUERED! A FAN-FAVORITE CHARACTER RISES FROM THE ASHES IN RESURGENCE OF THE VALIANT UNIVERSE #1!
By Staff Reports
Flamingo will rise from the ashes in RESURGENCE OF THE VALIANT UNIVERSE, the can’t miss Valiant Comics crossover event arriving in comic shops September 18th.
Alien Books (and the villainous Dr. Silk) are set to dramatically break the rules of the Valiant Universe in the four-issue event series RESURGENCE OF THE VALIANT UNIVERSE!
Imagine a world free of disease, war, and death! A world where no one needs to fear death ever again. A world where all are united under the web of the enigmatic Dr. Silk and his Weavers! In RESURGENCE OF THE VALIANT UNIVERSE #1 by co-writers Becky Cloonan, Michael W. Conrad, Fred Van Lente and AJ Ampadu and artists Guillermo Fajardo & Julio Azamor, you’ll get your first glimpse at this new world order and how it affects the lives and allegiances of iconic Valiant Comics characters like X-O Manowar, Bloodshot, Eternal Warrior, Ninjak, Ivar, Rai, Livewire, Faith and more.
“If you’re not a longtime Valiant reader, you might not know that in this universe, dead means dead,” explains Alien Books Director Matias Timarchi. “This rule has been followed very closely for many years but when you have a truly nefarious villain like Dr. Silk involved, you shouldn’t be surprised if he breaks a few things, namely the barrier between life and death, on his path to world domination.”
“We’ve been teasing that someone would be coming back from the dead in RESURGENCE and if you’ve paid attention to the cover reveals or picked up the preview comic at San Diego Comic-Con, you probably already have a good idea of who it is,” adds Alien Books / Valiant Comics Editor-in-Chief Lysa Hawkins.
“Well, the cat’s out of the bag now and we can share that Dr. Silk has resurrected Charlee Dupree, aka Flamingo, as ‘proof’ of his power over life and death. How will our heroes react after seeing their old friend return from the dead? You’ll have to read the book to find out, we’re not giving everything away today!”
