Valiant launching an App?

Valiant Logo

Valiant has had a rough couple of years. Once a popular publisher, the company has switched leadership and direction and in June 2023 it was announced that Alien Books would be handling the imprint. Since then, the releases have been sporadic and not captured readers like the line has done in the past and not without controversy. Alien Books too is figuring things out and signed a publishing deal with IDW in March 2025.

This year, Alien Books launched a Kickstarter for an omnibus of classic Harbinger comics, raising $104,622 from 901 backers. But, when it comes to publishing and releases for stores, things have been rather quiet with the last preview we ran for All-New Harbinger #5 in March.

Alien Books has also been part of the fight over consigned goods and Diamond, which has impacted numerous publishers.

This evening, we received the below email with a from email address as hello@valiantapp.io and a Valiant logo at the top.

You know who we are. We know you’re the first ones. The real OGs.

You’re the insiders.

Aric of Dacia is 1,600 years from home in living alien armor and pretending he’s fine. Bloodshot is running on nanite blood and borrowed memories. And Punk Mambo is in a Louisiana swamp arguing with the ghost of Sid Vicious about which voodoo magic will cause the most chaos.

They’ve been quiet for a minute, but I think you know what that means. Something big is coming. And when they show up it’s the real deal.

This is not for everybody. This is for the insiders who get it.

No one here is stuck in board meetings and earnings calls, and maybe the world feels like a dumpster fire right now, so screw it let’s break free. Join the crew and raise the pirate flag.

You in?

(Still in the bunker. Send snacks.)

The email is clearly for a soon to be launching app focused on Valiant.

But…

When it comes to information in the contact the email address is listed for valiant.com which then forwards to trackforce.com and the phone number is 555-123-4567, clearly fake.

What we do know:

So, expect a new Valiant digital platform doing who knows what launching at some point… You can sign up to be notified when it launches.

Aric is a warrior, and has been since his days with the Visigoths. But some battles can’t be won with energy-based weapons, sometimes all you have to do is look inside.

Artists Diego Giribaldi and Tomas Aira (RESURGENCE: FINALE) join writer Steve Orlando for this special chapter in THE X-O MANOWAR series, where nightmares and dreams come together.
