This is a \u201cclassic adventure\u201d in the spirit of the Iscandar series. There\u2019s a mystical techno-planet hiding a menace and the crew will have to discover its secrets. <em>Yamato<\/em> is sent not to a battle, but an exploratory campaign. <em>Yamato<\/em> has fought enough and deserves a short break.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, where there\u2019s research to be done, there\u2019s engineer Sanada. In the classic series, he had the role of not just a technical engineer but a scientist with a wide range of knowledge. Therefore (and also because he&#8217;s my favorite character), he has a key role in this story. But I enjoy drawing all the characters because I haven\u2019t paid enough attention to them in my art before.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"image-right\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/676a01.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The story was conceived in 2021. I should have started my <em>Yamato<\/em> fancomics with it, but I was intimidated by the large plot and the techniques (detailed drawing and full color). I started and dropped it several times (and I will definitely post the sketches on Patreon). I decided that I need training, so I made <a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/greenhillscomic\/'><em>The Green Hills of Earth<\/em><\/a> based on <em>Yamato 2199<\/em>. I liked the result. In the summer of 2021, I decided to get serious. <\/p>\n<p>I wanted to keep its atmosphere closer to the classic <em>Yamato<\/em>. The main point was to make a story that could be a part of or a continuation of the original. After the remake era started, people draw retro <em>Yamato<\/em> too rarely. So this is my tribute to the original <em>Yamato<\/em>, the one where it all began. I tried to follow the canon to make it look like part of the classic series, but with elements of cyberpunk, darkness and seriousness.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very glad that <em>The Lost Journey<\/em> project has been finished and I want to thank everyone who&#8217;ve been helping and supporting me with it or just read the ongoing story. And a special thanks to my friends from UCLUCLYA (russian <em>Yamato<\/em> fan community) and Tim Eldred for his help in editing the English version.<\/p>\n<p>I would be happy to get some feedback from you, the readers.<\/p>\n<p>Follow DashaKO on Twitter <a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/DaryaKO'>here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Visit her Patreon page <a href='https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/dashakomixmaker'>here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find her other Social Media links <a href='https:\/\/taplink.cc\/dasha_komixmaker'>here<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class='clear'>\n<div style='width:390px; margin-right: 0px; float: left'>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/676a02.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/lostjourneypart1'>Click here to read Part 1<\/a> (pages 1-34)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style='width:390px; margin-right: 0px; float: right'>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/676a03.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/lostjourneypart2'>Click here to read Part 2<\/a> (pages 35-68)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style='clear:both' \/>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<div style='width:390px; margin-right: 0px; float: left'>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/676a04.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/lostjourneypart3'>Click here to read Part 3<\/a> (pages 69-102)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style='width:390px; margin-right: 0px; float: right'>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/676a05.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/lostjourneypart4'>Click here to read Part 4<\/a> (pages 103-136)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style='clear:both' \/>\n<p><\/br><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault-images\/jul22\/LJpromo02.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/ljpromoart'>Click here<\/a> for a gallery of promotional art<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32558","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-galleries-and-web-comics","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32558"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32558\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32569,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32558\/revisions\/32569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ourstarblazers.com\/vault\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
