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.
