That story will reportedly pick up in real time, ignoring the current Valiant continuity in favor of catching up with the “classic” Quantum and Woody, now twenty years older.
“As a longtime Quantum and Woody fan, this project is a dream come true, as is diving into the material and working with these amazingly talented creators,” said series editor Alejandro Arbona. “Getting in all-new scripts and all-new art of the new adventures of Eric Henderson and Woody Van Chelton is surreal. Quantum and Woody are back!”
Q2 is finally coming — along with an omnibus collection of Priest and Bright’s work on the original Quantum & Woody from the ’90s — in October.
The first in a new line of oversized hardcover omnibuses re-presenting the most demanded series and runs from the Valiant archives, The Complete Quantum and Woody Classic Omnibus hardcover will collect Quantum and Woody (1997) #0–21 and #32, The Goat: H.A.E.D.U.S. #1, and X-O Manowar (1996) #16 (guest-starring Quantum and Woody), the original backup stories from the Quantum and Woody trade paperback collections, and the never-before-collected story “Thunk” – plus a wealth of rarely seen sketches, character design, process art and promotional materials.
The collection will also feature art from the likes of Bart Sears, Keith Giffen and a pre-The Walking Dead Charlie Adlard.
You can check out the solicitation text below for both books.

Now Woody is out to break up the all-new, all-different Quantum and Woody and put an end to Quantum’s recklessness…just as Quantum takes on a life-or-death personal mission for national security. Can these former friends set aside their differences…and their age…and their numerous health difficulties…to join forces one last time without driving each other crazy?
