Robotech II: The Sentinels The Malcontent Uprisings

In the late 1980s, Malibu Comics expanded the Robotech universe with The Malcontent Uprisings, a 12-issue series bridging the gap between the original saga and the aborted Robotech II: The Sentinels project. Written primarily by Bill Spangler with art by Greg Lane and Michael Ling, the story follows the simmering tensions that erupt into open conflict between the Robotech Expeditionary Force and the displaced Zentraedi population. Featuring key figures like Anatole Leonard, Jonathan Wolfe, and Max Sterling, this series explores the fragile peace on Earth as old alliances fracture and new threats emerge from the shadows of the First Robotech War. It stands as a crucial, if lesser-known, chapter that fleshes out the political and military struggles of the post-war era.
