Robotech was an 85-episode anime television series produced by Harmony Gold USA in association with Tatsunoko Production in 1985 and, as was par for the course, created from three totally separate Japanese anime television series that had been made in the same style, Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross and Genesis Climber MOSPEADA. And somehow they found a way through it all toi create something distinct that spearheaded the popularity of manga and anime in the USA. The resulting story sees Robotechnology discovered in a crashed alien starship which is then retro-engineered by Earth scientists to create a fleet of giant fighting robots to repel alien aggression. Rick Hunter, along with Lisa Hunter, are the most popular lead characters in the series and Rick Hunter is now getting his own solo comic book from Titan Comics in August…
