In more simpler terms, the whole fiasco started with someone going out of their way to make quite possibly the grittiest/ugliest version of Macross Saga ever attempted and ended with the cheapest imitation to a recent Macross show will ever see in comic book form. And somewhere in the middle there was a lot of comic book logic multiverse BS with far reaching implications that in hindsight was not a good idea for the comic to resolve the way it did.
For the first time since they started the convention tours, they got overshadowed by someone else's bigger announcements. Nothing from their old bag of tricks could have saved them from that. Well, maybe some humility for once.
Oh yeah, I forgot that this forum got hit hard by the huge brain drain and other garbage that happened over the past few years. Their professional relationship to the franchise through Creative Sphere may have changed significantly in recent months.
I can't help but think you guys had a role to play in recent announcements. If true, keep up the good work. It's becoming more important than the podcast.
If a dead ringer for Nikki Basara can show up out of the blue in this universe, all sorts of BS you can dream up should be entirely possible in Robotech these days.
