#new generation
A week ago yesterday, Bruce Lewis, creator and original writer/artist of Robotech: Invid War Aftermath (published by Eternity and later Academy Comics, 1993-1995), lost his battle with brain cancer and passed away. In memory of him, I posted my interview with Mr. Lewis from 2007 to the ol’ YouTube channel with a newly recorded intro and outro – the latter featuring an email I received from him just a year ago.
The GoFundMe set up for his family during his fight with cancer is still accepting donations as of this writing and can be found here.
Greg Sewart of the Player One Podcast and the Generation 16 video series (which chronicles the games of Sega’s Genesis/Mega Drive) plays through 2004′s Robotech Invasion for the Microsoft Xbox. Sewart was actually one of the developers of the game, so he’s able to provide insight into some of the game’s more curious design decisions and, most tantalizingly, point out sequences that were cut, including a bike race inspired by “Hard Times” and a battle in an Invid Genesis Pit. As of this writing I’ve watched a little more than an hour of it, and it’s definitely worth a look if you remember the game at all – or if you remember the era when it was released.

Black Panthers tribute.
Imagine what all these great young revolutionaries could have accomplished by today if they never would had been put down by the FBI the local police and everybody else who opposed them, i know that we the young people are the makers of our future and what we do is not only going to shape our future but others in both our generation and future ones. Our legacy will be based on our actions and efforts, so just like those young fervent man and woman of the 60s and 70s that decided to stand up and do something about the situation and fight back for their rights and freedom unlike previous generations who would obey and fear the so called “white man” they rebelled against them the oppressors and fought back with that strong rebellion attitude that we young people always posses and they changed their world and our world and that is their legacy. Now everything is different our oppressor is new so our goals are different and its been a while since someone produced a change and its up to us the young to mark our legacy and shape up this country and the world for ourselves and future generations its time to be revolutionaries for the better of humanity. Unity, equality and freedom for all.
