Youngblood (comics) - Reaction and Impact

Reaction and Impact

As Youngblood #1 is the comic book that introduced Image Comics, it is ranked #19 on Comic Book Resources's 2008 chronological list of the 20 Most Significant Comics. According to CBR's Steven Grant, this status is derived not so much from the comics' content, but for triggering both the 1990s speculator boom and crash that followed, and the trend towards the creation of superhero universes among various publishers. The series, and the formation of Image itself, is also credited for discouraging publishers' emphasis on their creative talent in their marketing decisions.

Famous quotes containing the words reaction and/or impact:

    More and more, when faced with the world of men, the only reaction is one of individualism. Man alone is an end unto himself. Everything one tries to do for the common good ends in failure.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    If the federal government had been around when the Creator was putting His hand to this state, Indiana wouldn’t be here. It’d still be waiting for an environmental impact statement.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
