1992 Youngblood Trading Card #1: Youngblood Team

This is a vintage trading card from the 1992 Youngblood series, published by Comic Images and based on characters created by Rob Liefeld for Image Comics. The card features several members of the Youngblood team, including Shaft, Badrock, and Vogue, rendered in the iconic, high-contrast hyper-muscular style of the early 1990s comic era. The front of the card consists of a cardstock base with a glossy finish, surrounded by a distinct light blue border. The artwork is vibrant, utilizing a bold color palette of yellows, blues, and magentas. The 'YOUNGBLOOD' logo is prominently displayed at the bottom in yellow with a red drop shadow. Physically, the card appears to be in a plastic protective sleeve, which suggests historical care. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left and bottom borders. The corners show minor signs of softening, common for a card of this age, but no major creases or surface abrasions are visible through the protector. This item represents the burgeoning independent comic market of the early 90s and is a staple for collectors of Image Comics memorabilia.
