Re-presenting Valiant's sold-out crossover event in complete chronological order! From New York Times best-selling creators Robert Venditti (X-O Manowar, The Flash), Matt Kindt (Rai, Mind MGMT), Joshua Dysart (Harbinger, Unknown Soldier), Doug Braithwaite (Unity, Justice), and more top talents, the acclaimed Armor Hunters saga gets the deluxe oversized hardcover treatment with more than 20+ pages of never-before-seen bonus materials!

When Aric of Dacia returned to Earth with the stolen X-O Manowar armor of an alien race, he thought he'd finally found a weapon to guard the peace and kingdom he'd struggled so long to secure. But now, a relentless and surgical strike team from the farthest reaches of space - sworn to exterminate the armor and all like it - have found their final target. The Armor Hunters are coming. They will hunt. They will trap. They will kill. And they will rid the universe of the X-O Manowar armor's incalculable destructive power...even if it means taking the Earth with it.

Collecting Armor Hunters #1-4, Armor Hunters: Aftermath #1, Armor Hunters: Bloodshot #1-3, Armor Hunters: Harbinger #1-3, Unity #8-11 and X-O Manowar #23-29, with more than 20+ pages of bonus content and rarely seen special features.

    JOE HARRIS is the writer of original comics and graphic novels such as the demonic rock ‘n’ roll thrill ride, ROCKSTARS, and the sci-fi adventure series, GREAT PACIFIC and SNOWFALL (Image Comics); along with the supernatural thrillers, GHOST PROJEKT and SPONTANEOUS, and the children’s fantasy, WARS IN TOYLAND (Oni Press); and the ghostly journey into the Fukushima nuclear exclusion zone, DISASTER INC. (AfterShock). As a young creator at Marvel Comics, Joe launched the cult-classic Spider-Man spinoff, SLINGERS and the BISHOP: THE LAST X-MAN series. Recognized for writing the long-running, hit comics continuation of Agents Mulder and Scully’s paranormal investigations into THE X-FILES to the enjoyment of fans around the world, THE X-FILES: COLD CASES—an audio adaptation featuring the voices of David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and the entire television cast—were released by Audible to chart-topping success and multiple Audie Awards nominations. A sequel, THE X-FILES: STOLEN LIVES was released soon after.

    A horror screenwriter and filmmaker, Harris conceived and co-wrote DARKNESS FALLS for Sony Pictures, along with the farcical political slasher movie, THE TRIPPER for FOX. In 2018, he co-wrote the live-action web series, NINJAK VS. THE VALIANT UNIVERSE (Valiant Entertainment).

    SURVIVING NUCLEAR ATTACK, a paranoid sci-fi thriller written by Joe, was serialized as part of John Carpenter’s Tales of Science Fiction (Storm King) in 2019. The grisly Viking werewolf saga, SUN EATER—created by Dylan Sprouse and written by Sprouse & Joe Harris—will be published by Heavy Metal in 2020/2021.

    A native New Yorker, Joe lives in Manhattan.

This collects the excellent armor hunters event in its entirety. As with the other valiant deluxe collections this is a quality edition with nice binding, paper etc. The origin of the armor hunters (the antagonists) is really fleshed out so the reader understands their motivations. The bloodshot scenes are fun and the harbinger issues set in devastated Mexico city were great. Faith and torque get a lot of attention in theses issues. Gin gr the sentient robot gets her introduction here. If you enjoy unity and have not read this yet, you should. It lays the foundation of the current unity team. My only gripe is I wish x-o manowar was featured more because he is the catalyst for the story. Pick this up, it is money well spent.

The first big crossover by Valiant I've read and overall found it to be pretty well done. Not perfect mind you, but the overall execution of the story is a good one. Continuing X-O Manowar's story while expanding the greater Valiant Universe, overall a worthwhile read

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2015
Reprinting the ENTIRE Armor Hunters event, the Armor Hunters Deluxe Edition is a must-have for Valiant fans.

As with other Deluxe editions, the issues have been arranged in a reading order. While the perfection of this particular order is certainly up for debate, the result of a streamlined and pleasurable reading experience simply can't be argued.

Providing not only some history of the Armor Hunters themselves, but the consequences of their arrival on different parts of the globe, this event is the world-altering scenario that VEI's previous crossover Harbinger Wars promised but ultimately failed to deliver. This point is masterfully driven home in the Aftermath issue, which ends the event with a clear indicstion that the world will never be the same.

Being that this crosses into multiple titles, hiccups are to be expected, though none of them should ruin the experience. First, the difference in art can be quite jarring at times. While each issue is good own, visually they do not always flow well together. It's a bit distracting. Secondly, there are several noticeable but minor continuity errors within the event. While a bit confusing at first, they boil down to mere differences in who was standing where when what happened. It certainly doesn't ruin anything, but it is a bit annoying. Finally, the Unity issues fail to hold up their end of the overall great quality of the story at several points. Most noticably, Ninjak's resolution to certain scenario seems to have been written in as an unbelievable combination of over-the-top gadgets and chemicals he obtained over many years to have the perfect weapon he never knew he needed.

As noted above, the art differs between titles, though none of it is particularly bad. If I REALLY had to pick a low point, Trevor Hairsine's work on the Bloodshot titles yields some awkward panels, residing on the lower end of his already gritty style.

Ultimately, the story is where it's at here, and this event takes the reader on a wild ride across multiple continents on earth as well as blowing the extraterrestrial Valiant Universe WIDE open!

3.0 out of 5 stars Solid Crossover
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2016
A solid company wide crossover. This edition contains all the issues having anything to do with the Armor Hunters story line. Reading it in the order presented shows that editorially this could have been a bit tighter. Different books present conflicting versions of events. The story unfolded differently than I expected. There weren't really any fights with the Armor Hunters until the very end.

Instant sci-if classic! Can't recommend this book highly enough, great for existing Valiant readers and those not familiar with Valiant books. Masterminded by writer Robert Venditti with contributions from other great writers and artists, this book collects the main 4 part story plus the XO Manowar issues and the 3 part Harbinger and 3 part Bloodshot storylines. A BIG read and great value for money. Buy it!
