The beginning of Archie’s “Dawn of X” crossover storyline is nearly upon us, and as expected, bits of the have begun to trickle out, including the regular and variant covers, solicitation, and even some line art from inside the issue!

Originally I had planned on doing a series of articles discussing, rating and ranting about each batch of weapons we get to play with in the Mega Man Classic series (and maybe X as well). Then Redmage1987 started his own series discussing individual weapons, and it was awesome.

Ever wonder what would happen to Mega Man and Roll if there were no more threats of Dr. Wily and the Robot Masters taking over the world (besides the entire X series and on, we mean)?

When Archie Comics released their solicitation for the upcoming Mega Man #36, they included a mysterious line noting that we should “be sure to pick up both regular and variant editions to read both SHOCKING ‘post-credits’ alternate endings.” But what does that mean? Now, thanks to a new article at Comics Alliance, we have the details.

One of the most unique and fun things about the Mega Man series is the Variable Weapons System that lets Mega Man inherit weapons from his defeated opponents. In this series, we’re going to take a look at just how useful each weapon is, how strong it is when compared to the Mega Buster, where it’s best used, and more!

We previously heard a little about the upcoming 37th issue of Archie’s Mega Man comic, along with an image of a cover depicting both Mega Man and X in action together. Naturally, this led to some speculation as to the nature of the upcoming crossover. Some new info has emerged to help better paint the picture of what’s to come… along with a pretty slick cover that also looks like it’s been painted, too!

When it comes to the logic of weakness chains, one game that seemed to baffle even the most hardcore Mega Man fans was Mega Man 3.

For many fans, the Mega Man Classic/Mega Man X crossover now made official by Archie’s solicitations may seem like the blending of oil and water; the simple Classic is happy and bright, the darker X is melancholic and meditative.
