Laslo and the Fokkers and Gloval return... The art has gone backwards again. And WTH are Azonia and Khyron wearing? That's not even an attempt at a Zentraedi uniform, more like something out of D&D. And why are the Zentraedi doing Kung Fu? Edited April 4, 2019 by Podtastic
JB0 Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Not gonna lie. I genuinely love how the spies are exposed.

RavenHawk Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 It's tough when you only have one piece of artwork to trace
Sildani Posted April 6, 2019 Posted April 6, 2019 If the UK HG Macross license expires in July... and Titan is a UK publisher... what then?
RavenHawk Posted April 6, 2019 Posted April 6, 2019 30 minutes ago, Sildani said: If the UK HG Macross license expires in July... and Titan is a UK publisher... what then? I did not recall that the UK license was separate from HG's other licensing timelines. It really has less to do with ownership of the company, and more to do with where the material is made, distributed, and sold. In the case of Titan, their books that I own are all printed in China (I was surprised by that, to be honest). So, HG could still have Titan make the books, just potentially not be able to distribute them in the UK (if that earlier license termination is correct). The interesting thing is that all this stuff is digital, too. I assume that a UK account could not purchase the books on Comixology after July.
sh9000 Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 I think I’ll still get the free Robotech comic tomorrow for FCBD and my wife will get the free Avengers comic.

RavenHawk Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 Apparently, starting with the FCBD issue, a new writer is joining in to "co-write" with Furman (in quotes because it depends on one's definition of "writing").

It's funny they're still going strong on publishing this. If my local store gave out free comics I wouldn't waste it on this one. Unfortunately they don't give out free comics
Knight26 Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 The artwork is even getting worse, again. The blatant tracing now includes original japanese artwork with kanji annotations. And, they've starting to use default power heads and bodies.

Oh man.. there’s some bad cosplay going on here.. well the good news is , according to Multiverse World, this comic is “A GREAT READ!” Actually, I feel bad dissing these creative endeavors. As someone who’s collected comics for over 37 years, I don’t want to put anyone down. Unfortunately Macross is the sacred cow that this silliness drew ( no pun intended ) inspiration from and it’s just not good..
sh9000 Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 The comic store near me didn’t have the free Robotech comic. Oh well.

Yeah, I hit both of the ones near me, and neither had it. Keep in mind, I don't think that the comics are actually "free" to the shop. I think comic shops get them at a very reduced price, with the understanding they are not allowed to charge for them, so it's sort of like the shops and the publishers splitting the cost in order to try to draw new customers/readers in (not positive about this, but this is what I was told). So... if the shop doesn't think anyone is going to be interested in Robotech, they won't order copies, even for FCBD.
JB0 Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 Breetai whining "are we there yet?" like a petulant child is my new favorite Robotechism.
505thAirborne Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 Holy f**king jumping $h*t balls this just gets worse & worse. As for tracing, yeah it's apparent. Which porno did they trace Minmei from? And that SDF-1 scene, where to begin with all that is wrong with that.

Dynaman Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 On the plus side they are still cranking out new material(*) while MtF seems to be on hiatus again - where I think it left off last time too. (*) - New material, not necessarily good material.
TehPW Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 maybe MtF isn't the thing any more. It might help if they were selling toys from it?
