In the ultimate display of power, Livewire has plunged the United States into darkness. From coast to coast, once-vital technology has now been rendered worthless\u2026 No cars\u2026 No phones\u2026 No quantum control bands?!? Without the high-tech gauntlets that bind them together, the world\u2019s worst superhero team have 24 hours before they disintegrate into nothingness\u2026 Now, stripped of their powers and unable to \u201cklang,\u201d can Quantum and Woody become the heroes they\u2019ve always aspired to be and secure the streets of the nation\u2019s capital\u2026before time runs out?<\/p>\n

Hey, hey, nobody invited these guys! On\u00a0May 30th<\/span><\/span><\/strong>,\u00a0QUANTUM\u00a0<\/strong>AND<\/strong>\u00a0WOODY! (2017) #6<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 featuring covers by\u00a0Ariel Olivetti<\/strong>\u00a0(X-O MANOWAR,\u00a0The Incredible Hulk<\/em>),\u00a0Geoff Shaw\u00a0<\/strong>(God Country<\/em>), and\u00a0Javier Pulido<\/strong>\u00a0(Amazing Spider-Man, She-Hul<\/em>k) \u2013 comes kicking and screaming into Valiant\u2019s cataclysmic summer crossover, courtesy of rising star\u00a0Eliot Raha<\/strong>l, acclaimed artist\u00a0Francis Portela<\/strong>, and an all-new entry point for the title that The A.V. Club calls \u201ca superhero series not to be missed!\u201d<\/p>\n

First: Before\u00a0HARBINGER WARS 2\u00a0<\/strong>begins, JUMP ON BOARD<\/strong>\u00a0with\u00a0HARBINGER WARS 2: PRELUDE #1<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 a\u00a0STANDALONE INTRODUCTION TO THE VALIANT UNIVERSE<\/strong>\u2019s most powerful forces from all-star creators\u00a0Eric Heisserer, Ra\u00fal All\u00e9n<\/strong>, and\u00a0Patricia Mart\u00edn,<\/strong>\u00a0the master storytellers that brought you\u00a0SECRET WEAPONS,<\/strong>on\u00a0May 2nd<\/span><\/span>!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Corps, and all of Valiant\u2019s most enduring icons draw fire in\u00a0HARBINGER WARS 2 #1 (of 4)\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 the\u00a0FIRST ISSUE\u00a0<\/strong>of the world-shaking comics event from creators Matt Kindt and Tom\u00e1s Giorello, the superstar creative team behind the chart-topping rise of\u00a0X-O MANOWAR!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Armed with new extra-governmental authority, the deep-black military contractor known as Omen has been authorized to identify, evaluate, and, if need be, eliminate all super-normal threats to the homeland. H.A.R.D. Corps units have been deployed into cities and towns across the United States to enforce their orders.<\/p>\n

In the East, one of the most powerful minds on Earth, Peter Stanchek, is leading his band of Renegades across the country, activating any potential psiots willing to join them, and building an insurrection force of ultra-powerful and unwieldy new abilities that will soon bring war to Omen\u2019s doorstep\u2026and the unstoppable force known as X-O Manowar raging back to Earth\u2026<\/p>\n

In the West, Livewire \u2013 the telekinetic technopath with the ability to bend machines and computers to her will \u2013 will be forced to choose between her former allies\u2026or her newfound team of Secret Weapons. As the situation escalates beyond human control, the United States will be plunged into darkness from coast to coast, launching Bloodshot and Ninjak into a dangerous mission to neutralize their one-time teammate \u2013 and setting the stage for the most shocking, most violent, and most consequential clash of powers ever witnessed in the history of the Valiant Universe!<\/p>\n
