There is new blood joining the universe of Youngblood.

The brief description of the issue is as follows:

In Giant-Size Youngblood, the Youngblood team investigates a mysterious island and its inhabitants.

“Giant-Size Youngblood #1 is chock full of signature moments that shape the future of the franchise! We reintroduce fan favorites The New Men, who were recently glimpsed in Youngblood #1000. They will continue to play a key role in our titles from Youngblood to Badrock and beyond,” said Rob Liefeld in a press release. “But, most importantly, five all-new, never-before-seen characters emerge to aid Youngblood. These characters create the core of the new team lineup when Youngblood #101 returns this fall. Giant-Size Youngblood #1 is their official first appearance.
