7 years ago, a global media firm purchased Valiant comics.
Last week, a new Bloodshot #1 was released with transphobic content, which the writer and publisher blamed on a translation issue.
A CXF editorial looks at how we got from there to here.

The transphobic content in the most recent issue of Bloodshot is a symptom of the fall of Valiant since DMG bought it in 2018.

Image have promoted the Anzuelo TPB on insta but not here so I’ll step in on their behalf for the BS crew. Anzuelo is astonishingly beautiful and is legitimately one of my favourite comics ever - and I don’t say that lightly.

Few things more fun to participate in than a CXF jam review, even if the comic doesn’t hold up its end of the bargain
Do you have a favorite moment from the Hellfire Vigil?
X-Men: The Hellfire Vigil is one weird wake
One year ago, at the final Hellfire Gala, the dream of a unified mutant nation was forever shattered by a cowardly sneak attack by anti-mutant forces. To mark the moment and to proclaim loudly and strongly to all concerned that mutantkind still stands, the time has come for X-Men of all stripes to come together in solidarity and celebration.
