Pathfinders… Pioneers breaking new ground in the furthest reaches of the galaxy… They are – ASTROBOTS. The clock is ticking for planet Earth and the race is on to find a new world capable of sustaining human life. New, sophisticated machine lifeforms called Astrobots are dispatched to scout far-flung worlds in the hope of crafting a new home. With food and raw materials running out and climate disasters escalating, the evacuation of the entire human population is the only slender hope remaining. On Colony World 1, a catastrophic power struggle forges a new – all-Astrobot – society, and presiding over this nascent civilization is Atlas, an evolved mech with a future proof plan. A plan that does not include humankind.

Earth, 2674: Finally… Dryagin confronts The Triumvirate – head on! But what can one all-too-mortal man do against beings that have, in effect, already transcended death? With the rest – or should that be remainder? – of Scourge Squadron in entrenched battle with the nigh-on un-killable Killatoa and White Noise under siege from Asphodel’s stone aliens, the chances of forestalling the Tri-Corp’s extinction agenda have gone from low… to no.

Earth, 2674: Once again, Dryagin finds he’s a marked man, and where Kraken failed, the evolved aquatic ‘soldier of fortune’ (don’t call him assassin) Killatoa may well succeed! For a start, he’s very, very hard to kill, and once he sets his sights on his prey – akin to a guided missile. The kid gloves are off, as Dryagin strikes back – vowing to take the fight all the way to the very heart of the Tri-Corp empire. But with the looming threat of Asphodel overshadowing all – is he already too late?

An epic event that changes the Robotech universe forever! It has been ten years since a huge spacecraft crash-landed on Macross Island and gifted the world with the incredible Robotechnology which helped mankind reach for the stars. But who originally piloted that ship and what – or who – else did they bring with them? Now Rick, Lisa and the rest of their crew are about to find out the shocking truth – and they must also face off against a new deadly alien race hellbent on total universal conquest. One thing is certain: everything will change… Written by Simon Furman (Transformers) with incredible art by Hendry Prasetya (Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers). Also includes a special back-up story written by Brenden Fletcher (Gotham Academy, Batgirl, Isola) with art by Sarah Stone (Transformers) Collects Robotech #21-24.

Earth, 2674: With all hands against him, can Dryagin possibly buck the odds and live to fight another day? As if his own pyro-warfare expert Kraken weren’t enough of an obstacle, waiting in the wings – all looking for a piece of him – are a White Noise Tac-team and the looming threat of alien ‘soldier of fortune’ Killatoa. Dryagin’s past is about to come back to haunt him – big-time – as Scourge Squadron’s first mission to Asphodel is revisited… and the terrifying fallout revealed!

Earth, 2674: Quite suddenly - and possibly fatally - Aleksy Dryagin discovers he''s no longer calling the shots when it comes to Scourge Squadron, and his hair-trigger, hot-blooded pyro-warfare expert Kraken has orders from on high not only to assume command, but also to make sure Dryagin dies a dusty death on the lunar surface. But others - most notably the subversive White Noise group - want Dryagin alive and kicking for their own reasons. But are they already too late?

Earth, 2674: diverted to the moon by the Triumvirate, Aleksy Dryagin and Scourge Squadron find themselves embroiled in an entrenched siege and under fire, their loyalties tested and divided. Unaware that his wife and son have been marked for death, Dryagin finds enemies and new threats at every turn. But the Triumvirate have reckoned without Dryagin’s uncanny knack for survival – and bucking even the most insurmountable odds.

Earth, 2674: career soldier Aleksy Dryagin comes home to a hero’s welcome… and a death sentence. Thrust into a maelstrom of power plays, betrayal and entrenched last stands, Dryagin finds enemies at every turn, even within his own Pacifier squadron, and a malignant conspiracy that threatens the lives of his wife and son… and countless billions of others.

Earth, 2674: thrown into the middle of an entrenched lunar standoff between the Tri-Corp and desperate Helium miners with asteroid-smashing gun, Dryagin and Scourge Squadron take matters into their own hands – which effectively means pissing off the three most powerful ‘people’ on Earth. Caught between a rock and some seriously big Mechs, Dryagin finds that he real enemy… is within… and the heat’s well and truly ON!

Several years ago, a mysterious space-ship crashed on Macross Island… In the intervening years, the people of Earth used the ‘Robotechnology’ from the ship to significantly advance their own technology. The ship – named by the humans as the Super-Dimension Fortress – actually belonged to a race of giant aliens, the Zentraedi the crew of the SDF-1 were forced to space-fold away – taking a chunk of Macross City (and its 70,000 citizens) with them. And then, the long journey home began – with the Zentraedi being a constant, deadly threat along the way. On the journey, the SDF-1’s Captain Gloval, died and Lisa Hayes took over his position. Rick Hunter went blind, but developed a different kind of vision connected to the Protoculture that powers Robotechnology. Minmei was also affected and developed powerful abilities through her voice. Lazlo Zand kidnapped Roy and held him captive, and with a cloning chamber he found on the original crashed SDF-1, Zand created clones of Roy and Gloval. A devastating all-out war broke out between the Zentraedi Dolza and the humans of Earth – with massive casualties on both sides – while a small group of Zentraedi aliens defected to the SDF-1. Dolza was eventually defeated and peace seemed to return… But the story is far from over. The Invid are becoming a huge threat and it emerges that a life-support chamber had dropped into the ocean when the SDF-1 originally crashed into Macross Island. The chamber contains a young female…

The SDF-1 has been in the midst of a long journey back to Earth. Along the way, the SDF-1’s Captain, Henry Gloval, was killed under mysterious circumstances and Lisa Hayes took over his position… Rick appears to have gone blind, but has somehow developed a different kind of vision – possibly connected to the Protoculture that powers Robotechnology. He is now concerned that Minmei has also been affected… and she has indeed begun to display strange abilities. Rick believes that his ‘brother’ Roy is dead – unaware that Roy is being held prisoner by Dr. Lazlo Zand… Roy came across Gloval in a cloning chamber… An all-out war has broken out between Dolza and the Zentraedi and the humans of Earth – with huge casualties on both sides… A small group of Zentraedi aliens (including Breetai, Exedore and Miriya) decided to shrink themselves down and are heading to the SDF-1 to defect while the Zentraedi spies, Bron, Rico and Konda, have already requested asylum from the SDF-1…

Following the mysterious death of the ship’s commander, Gloval, new captain Lisa Hayes and the survivors of Macross City are now nearing the end of their long journey home.
