Rob&rsquo;s creations took the medium by storm by influencing an entire generation of creators and, most recently, Brett Ratner as the famed director behind such blockbuster films as Rush Hour and X3 announced he will be taking the property to new heights by kick-starting the YOUNGBLOOD film franchise. Tomorrow&rsquo;s issue not only features\u00a0 a six-page back up story setting up Rob Liefeld&rsquo;s full-time return to the series with May&rsquo;s YOUNGBLOOD #9, but also an already much coveted variant cover featuring our nation&rsquo;s 44th President.<\/p>\n<p>YOUNGBLOOD #8, a 32-page full color comic book for $2.99, will be in-stores tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Image Comics is a comics and graphic novels publisher formed in 1992 by a collective of best-selling artists.\u00a0 Since that time, Image has gone on to become one of the largest comics publishers in the United States.
