X-O Manowar #16 (1993)

My perception has always been that Valiant Comics are perpetually boring, with Archer & Armstrong and all that (I’ve never read it). Turns out though, Valiant - specifically X-O Manowar - is violent AF and we like it. Its like an Andy Sidaris movie but doubled-down on exploding viscera instead of fake breasts. 

The story is pretty wild too. X-O Manowar gets back from strike-busting to help a young socialite escape her mother - played by Stockard Channing - who is hunting her down for mucking up her illegal alien firearm ring. Johnny Blaze shows up and gets scared by a horse.
