First, on October 8th, the true story of Aric of Dacia – aka the unstoppable X-O Manowar – will stand revealed in X-O MANOWAR #0, an essential new jumping-on point for Valiant's flagship hero from New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (ARMOR HUNTERSGreen Lantern) and Valiant's newest exclusive superstar Clay Mann (X-Men: Age of X)!

Known for his action-packed and kinetic work on titles including X-MenX-Men: LegacyIndestructible Hulk, and GambitX-O MANOWAR #0 will mark Mann's first work for Valiant. Mann is the latest in a recent string of high-profile additions to the publisher's roster of creators, including Jeff Lemire (THE VALIANT), Paolo Rivera (THE VALIANT), and Rafa Sandoval (HARBINGER: OMEGAS), and joins a stable of other acclaimed, Valiant-exclusive writers and artists that includes Doug Braithwaite(ARMOR HUNTERS), CAFU (UNITY), Joshua Dysart (ARMOR HUNTERS: HARBINGER,HARBINGER: OMEGAS), Clayton Henry (HARBINGERARCHER & ARMSTRONG), Trevor Hairsine(ARMOR HUNTERS: BLOODSHOT), Cary Nord (X-O MANOWAR), and Brian Reber (UNITY, X-O MANOWAR).

After narrowly surviving the events of ARMOR HUNTERS, X-O Manowar – or what is left of him – must look to the future, but, to do so, Aric must first learn the startling secret of his past. Be here on October 8th to learn the violent, never-before-told origin of Visigoth life under the brutality of the Roman Empire, and how the modern day's most feared armored hero began his journey to the stars nearly two millennia ago. Don't miss the most demanded Valiant story of the year as Robert Venditti and Clay Mann usher in a brand new beginning for one of the most acclaimed series in comics today, only in X-O MANOWAR #0

Then, on October 15th, Valiant all-stars Matt Kindt and Cary Nord come together to reveal the classified history of Valiant's biggest heroes – then…now..and forever – in UNITY #0!

The unbreakable all-star superteam known as UNITY has saved the planet, and the world is in its debt…but is this the first time a band of exceptional heroes and soldiers has rescued humanity from a doomsday threat?
