The Blue Ink: Archie’s Mega Man #9 – The Quick and the Red

“The secret of success is never believing you are successful.” –Jeffrey Archer —————————————-———- Dr. Wily has fled to lick his wounds, and there has been a period of prolonged peace. Perhaps even six months of it. Half a year of tranquility tends to alter a person’s perceptions when they’ve known nothing but combat, and so […]

Rock, Roll, and Dr. Light […]

Tracy Yardley’s Mega Man Concept Art for Archie

For over a year now, we’ve seen a range of talents on Archie’s Mega Man comic book, from Patrick “Spaz” Spaziante to Chad Thomas to Ben Bates and more. But prior to that, while the book was still in its conceptual stages, another artist known well to those familiar with Archie’s other video game-based books, […]

The Blue Ink: Archie’s Mega Man #8 – Dr. Light is a Boy Scout

by Erico “Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.” –Sun Tzu, The Art of War ——————————– And why is Dr. Light a boy scout? Because he was prepared. More on that as the plot develops. Now, then. When we left off in Issue 7, Mega Man was staring down the […]

Taking a Look at the 25th Anniversary “Rockcan”

It’s finally out; one of the most expensive Mega Man collector’s items you’ll ever come by: the “Rockcan Sound E Can”. This puppy comes with ten discs for each of the ten main series Mega Man games (and then some). And, it costs a whopping ¥14,700 (roughly $188 US – oh my!). I’m guessing a […]

Archie to Hold Mega Man/Sonic the Hedgehog Comic Panel at NYCC

Given the past couple of years, it should come as no surprise that Archie Comics will once again be hosting a panel dedicated to our two favorite blue boys of video game comics at this year’s New York Comic Con. This time, however, the Two in Blue will also be seeing a little red– Red […]

Don’t Expect a New Game for Mega Man’s 25th

The folks at Capcom have made a lot of murmurings about plans in the works to celebrate Mega Man‘s 25th anniversary. However, that doesn’t mean you should go expecting some amazing new game (though a number of fans have regardless). When questioned about what’s going on, Capcom’s Christian “Sven” Svensson made this response: […] In […]

The Blue Ink: Archie’s Mega Man #7 – Beware the Cute Ones

By Erico Having come face to face with CWU-01P, Mega Man and his two companions must now put an end to it. It’s a simple-minded thing; it doesn’t understand that the first Robot Rebellion is over. It only knows what it’s programmed to know: Protect the poop chutes, and intruder alert. In this situation, the […]

Capcom Trademarks the Term “Mega Man”

Here’s something a little bit interesting. A scant three weeks ago, Capcom filed a trademark for “Mega Man” in the US. What could this Mega Man thing be? What do they have up their sleeve? Of course, in all seriousness, it’s not that they never had “Mega Man” trademarked before. It’s common to make multiple […]

ScrewAttack has decided to celebrate 25 years of the Blue Bomber by posting the following video detailing 12 reasons they “HATE” Mega Man (the original game, mind you, not the character).
