HARBINGER WARS, Valiant's first family crossover event, begins here! A decades-old secret is about to put BLOODSHOT and HARBINGER on an inescapable collision course - and soon, the most powerful forces in the Valiant Universe will be drawn into a battle without sides, without rules, and without mercy.

Two dozen undisciplined, untested, and untrained superhuman children have just escaped from a top-secret research facility and into the world.

When Bloodshot, Toyo Harada, and Peter Stanchek join the chase, will the Valiant Universe be ready for its first all-out superhuman showdown?

Start reading here for a high-stakes tale that will put Valiant's greatest heroes to the ultimate test!

Notes[]

The Blank Cover is a convention exclusive cover that was made available at C2E2 (Chicago, IL) in March 2013. It was limited to 1,000 copies only. It's a flipbook with Shadowman (Volume 4) #1 thus it actually has two blank covers or one wraparound blank cover.

Quotes[]

The micro-shrapnel explosives in your brains have been activated. That gives you one hour to return to confinement. Personally, I'd prefer we not test the tech... I'm way too amazed by you little bastards to want to kill you.
