Love is in the air! Join us as we explore love Valiant style. In this saucy 50-page anthology, we feature four tales of lost love with Doctor Mirage, family love with Bloodshot, young love on the rocks with Faith and Archer, and lastly, "The Many Loves of Ninjak"---self-explanatory. We know our heroes save the day, but can they save their hearts as well?
