Click to embiggen. Just ask a Transformers fan: Where the official toy companies fail to come through, you can often count on the fans to do something impressive. That is, when Hasbro failed to come through with things such as a new version of Springer, the giant Devastator, or even a trailer for Ultra Magnus, […]

Our friends over at Destructoid have just gotten their hands on the latest Mega Man preview from Archie Comics, this one showing the opening moments of issue #15, which is part three of the “Spirit ex Machina” story arc. In addition, Tony Ponce recalls an article he wrote some 14 months ago about the logic […]

While we wait to see what kind of celebration will come this December, we can get a good look at some of the currently Japan-exclusive goodies on the way. This time, Ucchy is showing off the 25th Anniversary Rockcan announced earlier. In case you were wondering, it’s huge! But there’s more to this news than […]

Following the recent announcement of Marvel vs. Capcom: Official Complete Works, UDON Entertainment has revealed that August will see the release of another art book, this one being Street Fighter X Tekken Artworks. And if you’re wondering why we’re talking about this here or what this has to do with the Blue Bomber, then we […]

What’s better than Zero? Well, depending on the game (and how liberal you are about code usage, in some cases), the answer would be “Zero in black.” First appearing in Mega Man X2 as a result of Sigma’s failure to “study the blueprints closely” (maybe he’s color blind?), the black-armored Zero has become something of […]

The hits just keep on coming for the 17th and 18th issues of Archie’s Mega Man comic book, which will feature the origin of Proto Man: The cover and solicitation for #17, the making of its cover, #18’s cover, the solicitation for #18, and our recent exclusive interview with writer Ian Flynn about the story.

Nightram56 of the Video Game Memorabilia Museum is back, this time with a look at two candy boxes made available to coincide with the release of Rockman 10: He notes that the candy “has pixelated art imprinted on them,” while “the boxes were reminiscent of Famicom boxes, just bigger.” Do any of you own either […]

We wanted to do something like that for the headline, but without the actual assurance that Bobble Budds don’t fall down with they bobble, it just seemed like a bad idea. The conflicts a writer faces… But, we digress; following the […]

If there’s one thing Mega Man fans can’t get enough of, it’s music. Lucky for the fans, a can of music is coming to sate your thirsts! The “Rockcan” comes in a steel E-Tank tin, and includes a full color booklet. There will be 10 discs and they cover music from the Mega Man games […]

This past week, we had the chance to catch up with Archie Comics’ Mega Man (as well as Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic Universe, and The New Crusaders) scribe Ian Flynn to talk about the upcoming story arc which delves into the origin of everyone’s favorite whistling red robot, Proto Man! And we got some exclusive […]

One week ago, we brought you the covers to the 18th issue of Archie’s Mega Man comic book series, thanks to Capcom Unity. However, they did not post a solicitation, leaving us to wonder about the issue’s specifics as a result. But now, thanks to Merricks, we have the full story: MEGA MAN #18 “Proto-Type” […]
