Rob Liefeld's self-published Youngblood #1 sold over $500,000 worth of copies.

“These are the most in-demand, most popular, most celebrated names in the comics business and Old Man Liefeld could not be more grateful, more humbled that they delivered these spectacular Youngblood covers!” said Liefeld.

Liefeld ignited a collector firestorm earlier this year with the release of the highly sought-after, self published Youngblood Single Issues selling over $500,000 worth of copies—now The Blood is back and cranking the excitement into overdrive! In Youngblood Volume 3 #1, the team is summoned to a crisis in the Pacific as a mysterious vessel appears and a deadly nemesis is revealed.

All-New Giant-Size Youngblood #1 Preview

 

Comic fans owe Rob Liefeld a debt we can never repay. He helped bring X-Force and Deadpool to Marvel, and contributed to Image Comics' early success. He also helped revive interest in Battlestar Galactica, and gave Apollo actor Richard Hatch a start in his writing career. This year, he's bringing back one of his signature creations to San Diego Comic-Con with a special edition!

Here's all the info:

 

ROB LIEFELD RETURNS TO SAN DIEGO COMIC CON WITH EXCLUSIVE: GIANT-SIZE YOUNGBLOOD #1 SIGNINGS AND PANEL

Legendary comic book creator Rob Liefeld (creator of Deadpool, Youngblood) is set to make a major splash at San Diego Comic-Con 2025 with the debut of an all-new comic: Giant Size Youngblood #1. A Comic-Con exclusive, the 29-page special issue will be available in four limited-edition covers—each capped at just 100 copies—and will be distributed exclusively during Liefeld’s signings at Booth #5568.

First launched in 1992, Youngblood was the flagship title that helped launch Image Comics, redefining the comics industry by giving creators control over their own characters. Youngblood #1 was one of the highest-selling independent comics of all time and marked the beginning of a new era of creator-owned superheroes. 

 

Now, over 30 years later, Liefeld revisits the groundbreaking team with a bold new story that mixes nostalgia, innovation, and pure energy.

Like the classic it pays tribute to, Giant Size Youngblood unfolds on a mysterious island and brings together a mix of legacy heroes and all-new characters. This San Diego Comic-Con exclusive edition features four unique covers, each limited to 100 copies. A short pre-order window sold out quickly, but a limited number of copies will be available at the convention.

 

“Giant Size Youngblood is a comic I have wanted to make my entire life,” says Liefeld. “It’s my love letter to Giant Size X-Men #1, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. That comic is what made me fall in love with comic books, and I couldn’t let the moment pass without creating my own unique tribute.”

 

In addition to the launch, Liefeld will headline a special Comic-Con panel:

 

“Rob Liefeld ; Youngblood 33rd Anniversary"

Thursday, July 24 | 5:00 PM | Room 7AB
Join Liefeld and special guests for a high-energy celebration of Youngblood's legacy and future. The panel will explore the creation of the new Youngblood #1 (released April 16, 2025), the return of iconic characters like Shaft, Badrock, and Diehard, and Liefeld’s innovative direct-to-fan publishing model. Attendees will get a behind-the-scenes look at the remastered collector’s editions and hear firsthand what’s next for the team that helped launch Image Comics more than three decades ago.

 

This appearance marks Liefeld’s 44th San Diego Comic-Con, cementing his status as a defining voice in the comics industry and a fan-favorite mainstay of the convention.
