 ICv2 News - Wildstorm Wins Robotech Comic License   (Site not responding. Last check: )
With the amazing success of retro/revival comic series like Dreamwave's Transformers, Top Cow's Battle of the Planets, and Wildstorm's Thunder Cats, it was only a matter of time before Robotech, that other fan favorite science fiction animated series of the 1980s, got its chance at a new comic book incarnation.
Created by American anime pioneer Carl Macek from three different Macross anime series, Robotech was light years ahead of its animated competition on American TV in terms of complexity of storyline, depth of characterization, and coolness of the robots.
A 1980s comic series from Comico basically provided comic book versions of the Robotech episodes, but the new Wildstorm comic will feature all new stories set in the period right before the action in the Robotech anime begins and additional storylines that fill in the gaps in the complicated Robotech/Macross continuity.
