>>150402372How long until he gives up on it yet again anons?
>>150402496Is he writing and drawing it? It'll make 3 issues if that.
Homage covers are tiring enough as is without homaging shit that only just came out a few months ago. Sorry Jim, I like you but that shit is weak.
>>150402372Who the fuck asked for this
>>150402613Rob lost the license to Youngblood for a while and he recently got it back, that's why it's happening.
>>150402372Fucking traced from Absolute Batman
variant comics are a cancer. the fact that marvel dc and the fans refuse to leave the 90s behind is a cancer
>>150402372Why is the cover the sendnup of absolute batman?
>>150402842because absolute batman is popular
>>150402842yeah i thought this was absolute batman from the thumbnail...
>>150402842Joke about anatomy
>>150402754But how is Skottie Young going to support his family without variant covers?
>>150402640who would want to buy the license for youngblood lmao?
>>150404851A dirty jew, and he never bought or paid for it.
>>150402842>Why is the cover the sendnup of absolute batmanLittle homage
>>150402740It's a homage cover moron
>>150404851Me
>>150404851me too
>>150404541>But how is Skottie Young going to support his family without variant covers?Or Kaare Andrews, who dropped doing art duties on Spider-Man & Wolverine (the only reason to even look at that piece of shit) after three issues, but shits out five billion variant covers every month?
>>150402372So is this a general release of the issue he previously released through Whatnot? If so, hope Last Blood gets re-released too.>>150402613*raises hand*I'd honestly like to see all the early Image titles still around and in all their 90s glory.
>>150402372So that previous Youngblood book that they start but never finish is never going to get finish is it?
>>150407946Pretty much
>>150407946What's with Liefeld starting over again almost every time he relaunches Youngblood without finishing the previous stories?
>>150402372I wonder if Jim is reading the Absolute stuff. Would love to talk with him about Manhunter.
>>150402372Why bother with the comic at all instead of just the fucking covers?
I feel so bad for the early image and wildstorm teams lost to time. Wild CATS have a cartoon and DC tries to tell us Grifter is cool. If young blood actually got that anime it would have been more known
>>150409207Liefeld can't finish a project to save his life
>>150409845If young blood actually had a run that released consistently it might have gone somewhere. It was basically immediately delayed.
>>150402372>literally just copied Absolute BatshitLmao please tell me this is intentionally a parody and that they didn't think no one would notice.
>>150411348it is a homage.
>>150412626>>150405371>>150405380Hi Rob
>>150412626But why?
>27 retailer exclusive coverswhy
