Dynamite Entertainment has announced the April debut of Voltron: Year One, a second licensed comic book title based on the popular 1980s animated Voltron series. The new Voltron: Year One comic will be written by Brandon Thomas and illustrated by Craig Cermak with covers by Admira Wijaya and Jonathan Lau.
Evidently it took only one issue to confirm the success of the Dynamite’s first Voltron comic (see “Dynamite’s Voltron Launches in December”), and pave the way for a second series that will debut it April. In the new Voltron: Year One, Thomas, who also writes Dynamite’s other Voltron comic, will chronicle the saga of the future Voltron Force crew back when they were “Space Explorer Squadron #686” of the Galaxy Alliance—four young men led by Commander Sven and tasked with keeping the Earth safe in an increasingly dangerous universe.
