This month sees Archer & Armstrong and Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps kick off a multi-part crossover story, written and drawn by the title’s respective monthly teams.It’s a fairly new concept for the relaunched Valiant Entertainment–and for Archer & Armstrong writer Fred Van Lente, who joined us to talk about “Mission: Improbable,” Archer & Armstrong #18 and the process of working with other writers on characters that have been largely his and his alone since the title launched two years ago.Remember that these conversations are very spoiler-heavy. Archer & Armstrong #18 is available on ComiXology if you haven’t read it yet and would like to read along. The second part of the story, Bloodshot and H.A.R.D. Corps #20, is new this week.
