'Sup, y'all.

As some of you may have already heard, I'll be drawing Archer and Armstrong as part of the Valiant relaunch this summer.  I was really happy to hear Fred Van Lente is writing.  Fred and I have worked together on a few Marvel titles, most notably Incredible Hercules.

Check out the Archer and Armstrong announcement here:

After a full week of teasers for its "Summer of Valiant," Valiant Entertainment has revealed the full creative teams and solicitation information for its launch titles including the previously revealed "X-O Manowar" by Robert Venditti with art by Cary Nord hitting stores in May and "Harbinger" by Joshua Dysart with art by Khari Evans on shelves in June. Newly announced Valiant creative teams include writer Duane Swierczynski alongside artist Manuel Garcia on "Bloodshot" and writer Fred Van Lente joins artist Clayton Henry for "Archer & Armstrong."

"We've chosen these titles and these creators very carefully and each book represents a whole new corner of the Valiant Universe for fans to discover each month," Valiant Executive Editor Warren Simons told CBR News. "I've got some artists and writers who are thrilled to be launching the new adventures of these iconic characters, and the teams are absolutely knocking it out of the park. Four new books. Four #1 issues. Four new reasons for fans to head to your local comics shop. We're putting our hearts into this."


Thanks for reading!

Clayton

Hey, I hadn't heard. This is great news! Congratulations on the gig!

I was a huge fan of BWS' Archer and Armstrong, so I'm glad to hear it's in good hands. :)

Best of luck and here's wishing you a long and successful run on the new book. :)

Very cool. The art of the Valiant launch in the '90s (with the notable exception of X-O by Sears and BWS's Archer and Armstrong) had very off-putting art for the majority of its titles.

Good to see a fresh approach!

Agreed. I liked Harbinger a lot, but it was a compelling read. The art was flat, but appropriate in many ways. Not too detracting at all. Bought the hardcover recently and re-read it. Still good stuff.
