![]() The big beast of the Robotech apocrypha was a1986 project called Robotech II: The Sentinels. I soon realized that everything was largely a garbage pile that few sane fans would bother with, but even after realizing that, I still stuck with the Robotech EM because of those very small things related to the Zentraedi. ![]() Initially I devoured almost everything in the Robotech EM without thought to quality or consequence, initially distracted by the shine of works that actually thought about my favourite characters and offered them further growth. Yet since the material still existed, and contained some Zentraedi stories, I wanted to take a crack at it. Macross is good for the Zentraedi as a whole group, but the specific approach to certain characters leaves something to be desired, and in Robotech (at least, the old novels and comics) is good for some certain Zentraedi, but the general handling of the race is godawful.īy the time I came on the scene, there had already been scads of Robotech comics and a novel series published, and all long out of print and recently declared “not canon”. I experienced both sides more or less simultaneously, and in the end, I couldn't discard either of them for the sake of my interest in Zentraedi. ![]() Instead, many strange things happened, and matters instead branched off into two basic forks: the Robotech expanded multiverse (most of it currently deemed unofficial) and the mainstream Macross continuity. You would think, if my focus were primarily on a Macross element, I would have nothing to do with Robotech after my initial probing.
