Comic Book Legend Rob Liefeld is celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the Prophet in early 2022. He is bringing an all-star team of artists to take part in the special issue. John Prophet first debuted in 1992 in Youngblood #2 and was written and drawn by Rob Liefeld.
Image Comics will produce both the Prophet #1 Facsimile Edition, which replicates the launch issue. The remastered edition will also feature dozens of famous artists recreating individual pages from the original debut of the comic. The all-star line up includes Rob Liefeld, Dan Panosian, Philip Tan, Ed Piskor, Dan Fraga, Marat Mychaels, Jim Rugg, Tom Scioli, and Karl Altstaetter.
“Prophet is symbolic of the early 90’s Image Comics that fans identify with. They love as much anything released during that period. It electrified a generation of comic fans! Prophet is my best selling solo hero by a mile.”
