Its a good thing the game is coming out next year
Valiant really has some of best continuity control, I love how they plan everything out in advance across multiple titles-instead of rebooting the multiverse every other year
Crazy how much this channel has changed over the years

Michael Leroi. The video game just brought this atmosphere of dread. One of the scariest games i'd ever played on n64, ps1 AND pc. The comics are also on a whole other level.

I only knew of Shadow man from the N64 game back in the 99. Scared the crap out of me as a kid.
Seriously this is underrated and we definitely need a movie on this version

Can you do History of DC's Shining Knight and Marvel's Black Knight?
The game based on the Michael Le’Roi incarnation from Aklaim (though completely ignored in this video) is currently being remastered by NightDive studios RN, so it’s another win for Shadowman I say
Hmm I was expecting shadowman start singing and dancing. Lol But seriously this guy basically sounds like valiant comics’s own version of ghost rider.
This is perfect!! Shadowman is my favourite comic book character, in fact Shadowman #0 from the 90s is the comic that got me into comics and necromancy. Thank you for mentioning both the original and rebooted versions, great video!
it's funny, i remember finding the first ever Shadowman comic at a flea market for like $5 in 2000 and I was only 10 when i read it. I loved it and I wish i still had it. Thank god for digital archives.
I loved Shadowman in the 90's. Turok and XO as well. And for some reason, Magnus Robot Fighter was my favorite.
I so look forward to seeing dc fandom
Good lookin out on this showcase. Wasn't aware of Shadowman but after watching this would definitely check out this title. It's something up my alley
Yeah! More Valiant stuff!
History of Zorro please?
Bro I didn’t realize how long I’ve been watching you until now because I got a past video in my recommended which I believe was the top 5 superhero cartoons video but either way it said it was from 8 years ago I’ve grown up with your channel thank you for the content😄

The Shadowman mantle is like the Crow mantle, it gets passed on. Thank you so much for making the time to make this video, it's so informative & I really enjoyed it from start to finish.
I am so happy to see more of Valiant on this channel.
One of my favorite comic book characters, finally getting his due. Much respect 👍
You guys should do more valiant dark horse image characters
MORE VALIANT!! All the Valiant!!
Read him back in 2016. He's Awesome.
Valiant seems interesting
Love it. Need to get caught up on those
Yeah! I'm definitely getting the trades to catch up. Thanks!
I LOVE SHADOW MAN. Both Jack and Mike.
Woot! Shoutout to Valiant content! Loved it!
Shadowman always my hero in Valiant comics
I absolutely love when you do non Marvel non DC videos I just wish Marvel would bring back Malibu comics or at least their characters
Nfs that line is actually fucking fire "I'm not something you see everyday, I'm the last thing you'll ever see"
I'd love to see some more Valiant videos!

You mean like batman or Spiderman or antman.
Just an fyi. If it's meant to be the word for "group of witches", then it should be pronounced to rhyme with "of" or "oven" like the thing you cook on/in in your kitchen: K-uh-venn. Great vid, like always. :D
Vallient comics sure have a lot of interesting characters
Loved the video!!!
Do more Valiant please!
Had no idea this character even existed but I'm already a fan I have to check out this book
THREE CHEERS TO THE COMPANY MAN! Promote dem Variant Comics 👍
Thanks for the update.:)
Learn something new everyday. Great character arc.
He looked like ole dude from metalocalypse. The security guy.
Not sure if you've done it before but top 10 comic moments that broke the internet is a video idea you can do
I really hope will get an xo manowar movie some day and possibly a turok one as well.
Not sure if it’s been down before, but it would be really cool to see an Origins Of/History Of episode, around The Sandman. The recent audible book release boast an amazing cast that is noteworthy for spotlight. Always happy to see these origins vids goin on 7+ years 👍🏽👍🏽
I was managing a comic book shop back in 1992 when Valiant Comics hit the shelves. I made a large gamble on Valiant Comics lines, and ordered a lot of their comics. When they sold out at other shops, we had managers from Louisville cross the river to buy up our inventory. Let's just say...MARK UP WAS HUGE! lol.
Any connection to the shadow man game on the 64? A lot of the names n settings r the same. Looking for a friend

Never heard of this guy before but I love the aesthetic and tone. I will be sure to check him and some of the other characters from Valiant out!
I am diggin the non big two origin vids. Keep them up & maybe do some more indie comic origins

Bout time Shadowman get some shine.
Awesome
Thanks!
Hey Harris there was a 90s video game based off this character as well titled shadowman
Please please do one on Brother Voodoo He is so cool. Hes the one that got me into comics
Variant yall are awesome
I always watch your videos
The Ghost Who Walks was the first of such 'mantle heroes', I think, the Phantom. the Man Who Cannot Die.
The Valiant Universe is AMAZING and very easy to follow.
Drax and Shaowman both played the sax no superhero ever plays the bagpipes.
SHADOW MAN HERE, AND YOU'VE CONTRACTED RAIDZ SHADOW LEGENDS
I thought he said "Covid" for a Second😂
Would like to know more about Ninjak. Already a fan of bloodshot and x-o manowar
New fav character
Damn I used to have that comic the first one you showed dope 🤘
Shadowman Lowkey : the misfits☠️💀
*breaking news, Arris has no clue how to pronounce "coven"*
Surprised you never mentioned the video games. Spent so much time playing those. Now I wonder which came first, the comic or the games
*SHOUT OUT FROM LOUISIANA BRO !!⚜*
Valiant Universe has more self-contained hero tales? I'm in.
Shadowman game on Ps1 was Dope. That was when it was Mike Leroi.
