Full color, Released: 1984
This first release from Comico used character names such as "Rick Yamata" from the English language version of Macross before the completion of the 85-episode Robotech series in 1985. One of the hardest issues to find, this comic adaptation of the "Boobytrap" episode was reprinted as part of The Macross Saga Vol.1 from DC Comics / Wildstorm with dialog revised to be consistent with Robotech.

Robotech: The Graphic Novel
Full color, Released: 1986
This highly-anticipated oversize edition was the first comic to cross over elements from the three Robotech sagas.

Kenosha. The opening segment of the story has been reprinted in The Macross Saga Vol.1 from DC Comics / Wildstorm.
