(8/4/2020) Valiant Entertainment, home to such properties as X-O Manowar, Harbinger, and recent Hollywood breakout Bloodshot, closed the doors on its New York City Headquarters location recently. As rumors about the company’s health began to swirl, we reached out to Valiant for comment:
All Valiant employees have been operating remotely since March. Nothing is more important than making sure Valiant’s employees are safe during this pandemic, so they will continue to work from home for the foreseeable future and business will continue to operate at 100%.
It sounds as though the publisher, which has been through a number of massive changes over the past decade, is simply experiencing a new transition. As we continue to navigate “Life in the Times of COVID-19”, perhaps this news is an… *ahem*… Harbinger of things to come in the industry as more and more publishers look for answers to work at a distance.
We here at Comic Watch will continue to monitor, as always, and bring you the latest word from the industry.
