Youngblood

I don't think to many people will share your exhaustion with the new Youngblood team.Not many people here read anything outside of the main well know heroes.

Expand your horizons, read Image comics.

Sure it is.  Now someone comment on Youngblood. :p

Original Youngblood was just about the worst comic of all time.  Not only was Liefield drawing it and not only were some of the characters obvious Titans knock offs but they actually let the talentless sap write the stories.

Now I've never read current Youngblood but I can't possibly imagine it being worse.

The only Image comic I support is Invincible.

"Youngblood is a solid comic... I havent read anything from it in a while though

I don't think Liefeld is exerting any control over what characters are being used or not used other than giving an overall blessing for them to do what they want. Its entirely up to Casey and Donovan according to the interviews i've read. A lot of those characters listed will be appearing in other books in 09.

And to the haters, if you don't like it, don't buy it.

Youngblood are made of some good characters. Liefeld didn't have the talent to expand them into great characters and Moore isn't doing in better. I would love to see Bendis approach to them. They could be to Image as the Wildcats are to Wildstorm or Cyberforce is to Top Cow. Those teams were taken to the next level while Youngblood stayed in the 90's.

Die Hard was the coolest.

I have always liked Dutch, Knightsabre too.   I wish Image could buy the rights to Wildcats."

Knightsabre was a good character.  Marvel and DC play off each others characters, all the time. 

As long as the characters are different enough I don't see why Image can't do this, as well.

 In the early 90's it was alright, but noone ever really developed it properly for it to be a success. A lot of the characters had good stories, but as a whole, the team was joke. Stormwatch, WildC.A.T.s, Gen 13, and Wetworks were far better reads. The current series is a piece of crap. I do like Task though. He reminds me of Shatterstar.

I see your point, but one of Rob's issues was that he didn't try hard enough on some of his characters.

The only big difference between those two was that Knighsabre was an Aussie while Gambit was a Cajun. But this still allowed for the accent effect. Both carried a bo staff and was able to charge it with energy. Both were good H2H fighters and very agile."

"Liefeld needs someone to flesh out their  character and own individual identities"

Might as well say it needs to snow in Mexico City in July.

Maybe it would make things better but it'll never happen and we all know it."

Riptide is dead, but I still remember the issue in which she posed for the skin mag. It's was a classic. Chapel is dead as well. Switch Psi-Fire for Link. I think I would like to see a youngblood roster that was made up of:
Shaft as leader
Task as field leader
Link
Diehard
Badrock
mixed with members from other teams like
Reign and Exit from New Men
Seahawk and Lethal from Brigade
Mother One and Grail from Wetworks
Grunge From Gen 13
Savant and Voodoo from Wildcats
and Nautica and Hellstrike from Stormwatch. Mix them up as the mission demands and it could be a really good book. Right now it's trash and I would wipe my azz with it.

He might just do it, no one can say anything. :p"

Bloodstrike sketches??? How does Cabbot look?

Well, at least it's not as bad as I thought. Foreplay looks kinda small though. lol They need to bring Brigade back out. That was a kick ass book.
