Rob Liefeld’s ‘Youngblood’ #1 Sells Out Even Before Release — Second Printing Forthcoming
by Olly MacNamee
Rob Liefeld’s Youngblood #1 isn’t even out yet, and it’s already sold out before hitting shelves next week (Wednesday, 12th November). If you’re lucky and get in contact with your local comic book store, you might be able to get a copy still, but if not, there’s always the second printing Image Comics has ordered. And if you do, you could always get one of the five new covers available. Covers that take a hard road trip down memory lane with a homage to the iconic New Mutants #98, and the first appearances of Deadpool, Gideon, and Domino.

Speaking of the comic’s success ahead of its launch, Liefeld stated:
“This is the time for gratitude. Grateful to the Youngblood fans that have roared with their enthusiasm. Grateful to every retail partner that took the leap with their support. Grateful to comic stores, the backbone of our market, we rely on them to reach the masses. And I gotta express my thanks to everyone at Image Comics who provided guidance and enthusiasm. Enjoy this comic! The Road to Youngblood #100 starts here!”
