I’m also reading a few of the billed-as-ongoing-series from Valiant, but no issues have been solicited recently per the below.

However, Book of Shadows #3 appears to be solicited for January 25, 2023.

BOOK OF SHADOWS #3
(W) Cullen Bunn (A) Vicente Cifuentes (CA) Rafael Albuquerque & Others

Exarch Fane, an ancient, otherworldly warlord, is intent on sacrificing our world to satiate his hunger. Only a team of mystic heroes stands in his way. But while three heroes-SHADOWMAN, PUNK MAMBO, and PERSEPHONE-attempt to stop Fane from forging the Chain of Ruin, DOCTOR MIRAGE and the ETERNAL WARRIOR pass through the veil of death to discover the BOOK OF SHADOWS’ terrible secrets.

Also, X-O Manowar: Unconquered #1 was to kick of a new ongoing series in November 2022.

X-O Manowar: Unconquered #1 is now solicited for March 23, 2023.

XO MANOWAR UNCONQUERED #1

Warrior. Slave. Liberator. King. Aric of Dacia has lived many lives. Now his past, present, and future collide as Valiant’s X-O MANOWAR returns in an unforgettable new series. Becky Cloonan, Michael W. Conrad, and Liam Sharp bring X-O Manowar to new planets, old villains, and brutal destinies. X-O Manowar is alone in space and stranded on a distant world, battered and defiant, but never defeated. Put the king back on his throne as X-O Manowar charts an epic return on its 30th anniversary.

In Shops: Mar 22, 2023

So, only 1 of 3 of Valiant Comics’ promised ongoing series made it to its November 2022 solicitations as of press time.

This appears to signal that Valiant Entertainment is in as much trouble as has been reported despite their recent announcement of an epic future for the company.

Time will tell what’s next for the company, but 2022 was not the Year of Valiant that was hyped.
