| Magnus Robot Fighter #15: Cover by Frank Miller |
Another entry in my 90's Valiant Unity event re-read...
As Magnus Robot Fighter #15 is set entirely in Magnus' time, we don't get to see Archer & Armstrong in this issue. But we get to meet two (Count 'em: 2!) geomancers.
This proves a special moment for the young man Rokkie, as he discovers his life calling.
The Eternal Warrior, Gilad Anni-Padda, has lived on into Magnus' time, two millenia from now. He has an interesting story for you to discover, and Rokkie will play an important role in it.
Oh, you'll also see Rai in this issue. He's even got a fun nickname!
Snowflake? I wonder why his little buddy Raijin didn't call him that in Valiant's most recent Rai series?
I think what I most enjoyed about this issue is how it sets up Erica Pierce's kingdom in the Lost Land that we first saw in Unity #0. So, even though this issue goes forward in time, it also predates the majority of the series, which takes place in the land outside of time: the Lost Land.
And the great future city which is transported to the Lost Land is...San Gabriel?
I used to work in San Gabriel!
You'll find great worldbuilding in Magnus Robot Fighter #15. This fourth chapter in the Unity saga is definitely worth checking out, whether you're a fan of 90s Valiant, or discovered the universe through recent releases.
