PORTLAND, Ore. 07/17/2026 — Comic book icon and Image Comics founder Rob Liefeld’s highly anticipated newlaunch this week,Badrock #1, with artist Seth Damoose (Tales of Mr. Rhee, Savant), has sold out completely at the distributor level. Image Comics will fast-track a reprint of this exciting debut in order to keep up with escalating demand.
This latest reprint order comes on the heels of last week’s lighting-fast Youngblood #100 sell-out and rushed reprint as well as this week’s exciting news of yet another Liefeld surefire hit in the upcoming Avengelyne #1, launching in advance of the already-in-development film at Warner Bros.
Yet Liefeld’s “Summer of Youngblood”—a season-long celebration marking the monumental return and expansion of the franchise that launched the Image Revolution—has only just begun. Next week fans will finally get their hands on the Giant-Size Youngblood one-shothitting shelves too.
“Man, this is the best sell out yet as I’m so excited to share this stage with Seth Damoose,” said Liefeld. “I created this entire project to work with Seth and jam with him on one of my favorite characters! The audience reaction to Seth and his stellar storytelling has been beyond enthusiastic! Thank you retailers, thank you to the best fans! We are just getting started!”
