About the series
From 2005 to 2006, DC Comics published Robotech: Prelude to the Shadow Chronicles, a five-issue miniseries bridging the classic Robotech saga to its then-upcoming animated sequel. Written primarily by Jason Waltrip, John Waltrip, and Tommy Yune, with art from Omar Dogan, Udon Studios, and John Waltrip, this series expanded the universe by introducing new mecha designs and setting the stage for the next chapter of the interstellar conflict. It matters as a key connective tissue for fans, offering a direct lead-in to the Shadow Chronicles film while honoring the franchise’s legacy.
