Rob Liefeld Lands 27 Variant Covers for ‘Youngblood’ No. 1

After all, variants are a sign of interest in the book, because retailers are betting people will want to collect multiple copies, and this was a book tied to the biggest superhero movie of the year.

A year later, any disappointment he felt has been quelled thanks to Youngblood No. 1. Though on the surface it’s a lower profile book than a Deadpool book, it has landed a whopping 27 variant covers, an impressive number given the comic is not part of a multimedia franchise and has never been adapted for the screen.
