Kentaro, Oniishi, and Masaki infiltrate the never-before-seen winter country of Novva Rozza, where Galactor has placed his factories! The factories are building an Antiproton Capacitor, a device that collects antiprotons from the atmosphere to create a bomb capable of unleashing annihilation on a massive scale.
Novva Rozza is completely under Galactor’s control, and the Red Impulse Squadron must face their intense anti-aircraft artillery! Even if they win, they’ll still need to deal with Galactor’s annihilation device itself…
Kentaro and Masaki go undercover inside a Galactor research site to steal an experimental power source—but nothing about the mission goes according to plan. With deadly mechs on their tail and the situation spiraling skyward, Red Impulse is pushed to their absolute limit. Instinct, trust, and nerves of steel will decide if they make it home.
Captain Kentaro Washio takes Ken the Eagle on a blistering training run, but then gets a tip that Galactor is building a weaponized “attack city” designed to lure Gatchaman in and kill them all. With Doctor Nambu unaware and no time for backup, Kentaro goes in alone…and crashes straight into Berg Katse’s trap, where even the “citizens” are killer machines. Outnumbered, grounded, and fighting with nothing but grit and a sidearm, the Captain must demolish an entire city to keep his team safe…especially the son who doesn’t know their bond.
When missions turn sour and silence is the only option, Red Impulse is cleared for takeoff! This spring, Eisner Award-winning writer Steve Orlando returns to Gatchaman with Gatchaman: Red Impulse, a new limited series from Mad Cave Studios, in partnership with Tatsunoko Production that centers on the Red Impulse Squadron—the pilots trusted when missions are too dangerous for anyone else!
Illustrated by Riccardo Robaldo, with colors by Rebecca Nalty, and letters by Frank Cvetkovic—Gatchaman: Red Impulse brings the franchise’s unsung heroes into focus. Issue #1 features Cover A by Robaldo and a variant cover by Ringo Award-nominated artist Colm Griffin.
