Brandon Thomas : Voltron Year One before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Voltron Year One:

The beginning of the Voltron ForceBy Phillip SchultzThis is the fourth book I received as part of the July 2016 Comic Bento box, which had a theme about robots. This one is a bit of a stretch for the theme. Voltron itself is a giant robot, but this book chronicles what happens before the team acquires Voltron. It is called Year One, although I'm not really sure that it follows a full year of events. The pacing of the story is good, there just isn't much to tie it into the title.All of that said, I enjoyed this book a lot. Space Explorer Squadron 686, which becomes the Voltron team, is an elite group. They take on some of the most difficult missions without a problem. Until they are fed some bad information from their superiors. After that they are put through the ringer in an attempt to force them to fail. The group is cohesive at the beginning, yet they are still shown to come together in a really interesting way.The book focuses on Sven, who is the commander of the group in this book. We get to see the struggles he has with the leadership position, and the support that others in the group, specifically Keith, provide for him. His story is the story of SES 686. It is handled so well and the end wrapped things up perfectly for both Sven and the group. The team dynamics are pretty good too. There is less focus on the other characters though.The art is good. I wouldn't say great because I don't remember it really wowing me at any point. One thing that I liked about the art is that the backgrounds are fleshed out. I've seen a lot of books where the backgrounds are just a single color with no details, so what we have here is quite good in comparison. This bolsters the feeling of the setting too. To tie things back in, there is a teaser of Voltron at the end of the story.I definitely recommend this book to fans of Voltron or science fiction. My only previous experience with the franchise is the old cartoon series. This book makes me want to read more.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. PREQUEL anthology -- How did the Voltron Force begin?By TheTuneHeadBe aware -- this is NOT the story of how Voltron was conceived or began. This is the story of the 5 Space Explorers that would eventually make up the Voltron Force. You'll see a lot of great artwork, and the traditional primary colors are there, but the tone is very different from the cartoon. I haven't read the first Voltron series that Dynamite put out yet, but I enjoyed reading this and discovering the core characters in a new light. Sven is the main protagonist, the leader of the Space Explorer team instead of Keith, but through this storyline, we get to see how his involvement and influence puts the SE team on the road to Voltron. The story's not the longest, not the most involving in terms of character development, but it's a great starting point. I picked up the volume at my local comic store, and I paid $10 for it -- about half the publisher's MSRP. It was worth the price, for sure. If you're a casual fan, you can skip it, but if you want to dive more into the legend, check it out.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Now you do eventually plan to have Voltron on your Voltron tour, right?. . .By Jeff F. . .to paraphrase Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park. That was the biggest disappointment in this book: Voltron never appears in it except for the covers. The same goes for Princess Allura, one of the main characters from the old cartoon. Villains King Zarkon and Prince Lotor are completely absent. The other members of the Voltron Force (Keith, Lance, Hunk, and Pidge) are all present and accounted for here; the character Sven (who if I recall correctly died on the old cartoon) is the central protagonist. The future members of Voltron Force are part of a space exploration program, but the majority of their adventures consist of assassinations, extractions, etc. Brandon Thomas does a solid job on the writing here, especially with regards to characterization; he even makes Pidge, who was second only to Scrappy Doo when it came to annoying cartoon characters in the 80s, into a slightly creepy prodigy. Craig Cermak's art is quite good. Although it was difficult to tell the central characters apart at first, this improved as the series went on; the action sequences are very well done. So what prevents Voltron: Year One from being listed alongside, say, Batman: Year One? As I stated above, Voltron never actually appears; if not for the title, one might mistakenly believe he or she is reading a Tom Clancy novel. There's also a major plot development late in the miniseries that occurs without any foreshadowing or prior buildup; that makes for poor storytelling. Voltron fans may enjoy Voltron: Year One. Just don't let the title fool you.

Voltron: Year One (Book Market Solicit) Before Arus. Before Voltron. They were Space Explorer Squadron #686. Soon, they will be known as the legendary Voltron Force---Keith, Lance, Hunk, Sven, and Pidge---five young men entrusted with five powerful robot lions and the responsibility of defending the universe from unimaginable evil. Now, they are one of many Space Explorers under the command of the Galaxy Alliance, tasked with keeping the Earth safe and the skies clear in a universe growing more and more dangerous every day. They're the best central command has to offer, and have never once failed a mission.Everything changes in a flash, and Commander Sven, already hammered by persistent feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy, finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy that reaches to the top of the Galaxy Alliance. All the while he continues to be plagued by nightmares, convinced that he'll make a critical mistake that'll lead to the horrible deaths of his friends. During these critical weeks, we delve fully into the character and motivations of future Blue Lion pilot, Sven, and more specifically, the physical and emotional toll this intense level of responsibility takes on a man who doesn't consider himself worthy of it. When the pressure on him intensifies, he pursues a number of increasingly desperate measures that just might bring these fears to terrible life.
