According to Image, Youngblood #1's story will explore a self-protection app called HELP! that "is changing the way people stay safe" and lets users decide who saves them if you end up in trouble. "But when a high-rated young hero on the app goes missing, his best friend’s search for answers gains the attention of some unexpected allies, and together, they’ll do whatever it takes to find him… even if it means resurrecting the world’s most hated super-team, Youngblood," Image describes.“I'm so incredibly proud of what Jim and I are doing on this book, and can't wait for readers, especially those who've maybe never picked up a Youngblood comic, to see what all the fuss is about," said Bowers.Youngblood made its debut in 1992 and became the flagship publication for Image Comics. It tells the story of a superhero team overseen and sanctioned by the United States government.Rob Liefeld is currently also working on an Extreme Universe movie franchise
