Month: January 2011

The first issue of Archie’s Mega Man comic book will be coming at us at the end of April/beginning of May (depending on how you receive it), and we’ve had some looks at what we can expect from the art of Patrick Spaziante and Chad Thomas, including the two covers the first issue will ship […]

And here it is! The official announcement of the Mega Man Gigamix trilogy, coming in May! IT’S MEGA MAN’S MOST EPIC ADVENTURE YET! UDON to release Mega Man™ Gigamix manga series Toronto, ON – January 27, 2011 –  This past year, Hitoshi Ariga’s classic Mega Man™ Megamix manga series was finally brought to English readers, […]

A new update on the Rockman Online blog. After having an encounter with Rightot, Alia received a great deal of data on “ancient robots.” Apparently, Sigma and the URA have also been deeply researching the old robots of the past. As an example, she shares the information on a robot known as Blues. The bulk […]

Just to make things more official (if they weren’t enough already), you can now nab a preorder for Mega Man Gigamix vol. 1 on Amazon. Amazon currently has the release date set at May 17th. Yeah yeah, we’ve all heard the snubs about UDON delays. But with as big a seller as Megamix has been, […]

Well alright, maybe even I have to admit when it’s time to throw in the towel. It seems pretty unlikely that Mega Man is appearing in Marvel vs. Capcom 3’s roster, and in an interview with Spong, Ryota Niitsuma discusses why Zero made a more viable choice than Mega Man: I assume you’re talking about […]

Just a reminder, the deadline for submitting artwork to be evaluated for inclusion in UDON’s Mega Man Tribute is January 31st at 1:00PM EST. That’s just another week. If you haven’t started yet, then you’re looking at quite a bit of crunch time this week! Be diligent, because there are a number of requirements and […]

Although we haven’t gotten an official notice from UDON yet, we have a pretty good indication they have picked up Rockman Gigamix, Hitoshi Ariga’s most recent Rockman manga. UDON’s distributor, Diamond Book Distributors, has Mega Man Gigamix listed among their June 2011 releases, under the ISBN 978-1-926778-23-5. Sounds pretty definitive if you ask me, but […]

If you’ve been looking forward to Archie’s upcoming Mega Man comic series, then you can go ahead and pre-order if you like. Archie is now offering pre-orders for year long subscriptions at the discount price of $22.50, saving you $13.38 over buying them all individually. It’ll save you a trip to the store, too. I […]

Hey folks! I’m sorry it’s taken this long to announce the results of our New Year’s themed Kotobukiya Roll model kit contest. I’m sure some of you have been a little anxious! We got an amazing number of responses, over 250! It was a pretty simple contest, but that’s probably the biggest response we’ve ever […]

Looking for yet another fix of arranged Mega Man music? Artist The Greatest Bits has recently released a Mega Man 2 themed album containing the majority of Mega Man 2’s music, given the retro treatment but with a bit of a kick. I really do love chiptune music myself and I definitely got into some […]

Previously we reported that Kotobukiya would have a couple of Mega Man themed mugs on sale at their in store event this Friday, but it was uncertain if they’d be going on regular sale. Well, it appears the mugs will be hitting the e-Capcom store on February 28th, for ¥1,050 a piece (roughly $12.79 US). […]

The next Mega Man Legends 3 event is upon us, and I think this is one that many people have been waiting for: Design a Reaverbot. You know, the creepy and mysterious robots that patrol the ruins in the Mega Man Legends world. The Devroom heads are looking for a design for a four-legged Reaverbot. […]
