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 […]

A short while back we reported that an online shop showed a revival of Shigeto Ikehara’s Rockman 7 manga under publisher Wedge Holdings. Today, Wedge Holdings announced the manga in their upcoming lineup, but along with it is Koji Izuki’s Rockman 8 manga.

Back in August, members of The Mega Man Network, Stardroids.net, and Rockman.EXE Online gathered at Otakon to host a panel called “The Anime & Manga Realm of Mega Man,” in which we took a look back at the Blue Bomber’s history in both comic and animated form, from both sides of the Pacific. There was […]

Late last month, Hitoshi Ariga released the third and final volume of his new Rockman Gigamix manga series, and faithful fan Rock Miyabi has written up a nice review for us, as well as provide a detailed recap on the forum. It should be noted both the review and recap will contain tons of spoilers, […]

The third and final volume of Hitoshi Ariga’s Rockman Gigamix series was due out back in July, but got delayed.
