Los Angeles, CA – June 8th 2022 – Comic book legend Rob Liefeld and IMAGE comics have teamed up to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of PROPHET with an a RE-MASTERED version of PROPHET #1 drawn by an All Star roster of Comic book talent from past and present!
John Prophet first debuted in 1992 in the pages of Youngblood #2, written and drawn by Rob Liefeld. The character became an instant hit with audiences and created a demand that he star in his own showcase series featuring art by Dan Panosian from stories and layouts by Liefeld.
Prophet Re-Mastered #1 features art by Philip Tan, Kenneth Roccafort, Clay Mann, Viktor Bogdonavic, V. Ken Marion, Marat Mychaels, Dan Fraga, Karl Altstaetter, Dan Panosian, Cory Hamscher, Thomas Hedglen, Tom Scioli, Jim Rugg, Ed Piskor, Robert Willis, Raymond Leonard, Ale Garza, Ryan Kincaid and Rob Liefeld.
“Whenever I set out to create any project, I have great expectations and I work super-hard to make sure that those expectations are met. “ Said Liefeld.” With Prophet Re-Mastered #1 expectations were exceeded 100 times over! In order to bring some fresh excitement to Prophet, I reached out to a wide field of talented artists, many I didn’t know and had never worked with, all of whom, turns out, were humongous Prophet fans! Every single artist that contributed turned in work that went above and beyond! Several of them told me how excited that they were re-creating pages for a comic book that meant so much to them in their youth! It soared way past my wildest dreams! This comic is a beautiful tribute to the Prophet pantheon of comics! Fans are in for a real treat with this Re-Mastered edition!”
In October 2021 it was announced that Jake Gyllenhaal will play John Prophet in a movie version of PROPHET with Sam Hargrave directing and a script from Marc Guggenheim. Liefeld will serve as Executive Producer with Jeff Robinov of Studio 8.
