#JimValentino served as #Image's publisher from 1999 to 2004, where he emphasized quality but diverse books, like #Invincible, #NobleCauses and #AgeofBronze. Most notably was #TheWalkingDead, which Valentino originally rejected before #RobertKirkman convinced him otherwise.

#JimValentino would help #RobLiefeld on #HeroesReborn by writing #TheAvengers series, which was one of his favorite comic books as a kid.

#JimValentino launched his own #Image book with #Shadowhawk #1 in 1992, selling 500,000 copies and being the first Image book to release on time. Since Valentino wasn't as big of a star as his fellow founders, he relied on gimmick covers to help with sales.

Some of the other #Image founders didn't want #JimValentino as part of the group since he wasn't a superstar like them but #RobLiefeld went to bat for him, which is why Valentino would defend him years later.

#JimValentino soon went to #Marvel, as he was tired of being broke, where he launched a new version of the #GuardiansoftheGalaxy, first appearing in #WhatIf? #8 before getting their own series.

#JimValentino began his comic book career with the satirical series #normalman, appearing as a backup story in #Cerebus #56 (Nov. 1983), which about a normal human living on a world filled with superheroes.

Superb conclusion to the "Abomination" story arc by #ScottSnyder and #NickDragotta as Batman fights Bane in downtown Gotham in the most brutal way possible.
