It seems comic fans often grumble over crossovers these days but then we usually see those crossovers doing well, in terms of sales. When it comes to a smaller comic book universe, like Valiant, the idea of a crossover can be much more appealing. If this is a shared universe, we actually do want to see how these characters will interact with each other. Starting next March, we'll get to see, what should turn out to be, a rather interesting crossover.
Archer & Armstrong are meeting up with Bloodshot courtesy of the ARCHER & ARMSTRONG creative team of Fred Van Lente and Pere Perez and BLOODSHOT AND H.A.R.D. CORPS co-writers Christos Gage and Joshua Dysart with incoming artist, Tom Raney.
This is likely to get pretty nuts.
Valiant is proud to announce "Mission: Improbable" – a four-part crossover event beginning this March in Archer & Armstrong #18 and Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps #20!
Archer & Armstrong are going to war with Bloodshot and H.A.R.D Corps! (GULP!) That's right, Valiant's globe-trotting adventure duo have been targeted for elimination by Project Rising Spirit's most elite kill crew. Their mission? Assassinate the the newly appointed leader of a homegrown fundamentalist terror sect named…Obadiah Archer?! (And if they could take out his mentally ill, alcoholic bodyguard who just happens to think he's a 10,000-year-old immortal, that'd be swell too!)
It's an improbable mission with impossible odds. Do Bloodshot and the steely killers of the H.A.R.D. Corps stand a chance against two conspiracy-smashing heroes that never go down without a fight? Find out when Valiant lights the fuse on "Mission: Improbable" in Archer & Armstrong #18 and Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps #20 – the FIRST ISSUES of this unprecedented, four-part crossover event!
With each issue featuring one of four interlocking Pullbox Exclusive Variants – reserved exclusively for comic shop subscribers – by artist Jorge Molina, don't miss a moment of Valiant's very first inter-series crossover when Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps join Archer & Armstrong to the run the gauntlet for "Mission: Improbable" in March and April!
