The Delinquents #1 Sells Out
Every duo has a yin and a yang to it. One is generally more responsible than the other and that's part of what makes that duo's dynamic feel so vibrant. Valiant wondered what would happen if two of those duos were paired together in The Delinquents #1. That first issue has sold out at the distributor level and will return with a brand-new second printing in stores October 1st. The book matches Archer and Armstrong with Quantum and Woody, courtesy of Fred Van Lente and Kano.
For decades, the underground society of American hobos guarded one secret with their lives – the route to hobo paradise…aka Big Rock Candy Mountain, U.S.A. Only one map leading to its mythical location was ever made…and it was tattooed on the butt cheeks of one lone hobo guardian! In the years since, it has been flayed, dried, and split into two halves. Archer & Armstrong have the left cheek, Quantum and Woody hold the right. And, now, these two halves are about to set the competing duos off on a cross-country rat race where “O” marks the spot.
In stores October 1, The Delinquents #1 Second Printing (JUL148296) is worth picking up. Full press release below.

Written by multiple Harvey Award nominee James Asmus (Quantum and Woody) and New York Times best-selling writer Fred Van Lente (Archer & Armstrong) with art by heat-seeking artist Kano (Gotham Central), start reading here as Valiant's two most ill-suited and irresponsible pairs of “heroes” go head-to-head for a cross-country rat race…with only an ass-map to guide them!
