Good news, everyone! We have received word from Adam Newman of Bandai regarding a very special D-Arts Mega Man X action figure which will be available at this year’s San Diego Comic Con International. TMMN Staff

As reported previously, the first volume of Hitoshi Ariga’s Mega Man Gigamix is now available from UDON Entertainment. What’s more, our previous report also included a few preview pages, including one showing off a rather striking image of Break Man, the alter-ego of everyone’s favorite scarf-wearing ‘bot, Proto Man. And as we’ve seen recently, Dr. […]

The first issue of Archie’s new Mega Man comic has only just come out, and yet we now have a preview of what’s to come after the inaugural story arc “Let the Games Begin!” Two new covers have been revealed, apparently continuing the “Villain Variant” theme introduced with Mega Man #2. This variant will be […]

It has been a little while since we put the call out to you for your questions for the Archie Comics creative staff behind the new Mega Man comic. The folks there have been working at a feverish pace to get the book going, and as some of you have already seen, the effort appears […]

If you’ve been looking forward to Kotobukiya’s Mega Man model kits, but haven’t felt like importing or would just rather they be Mega Man branded, you should head on over to the Capcom Store. They currently have Mega Man, Roll and Proto Man on pre-order, $29.95 each, and shipping on out in July. Of course […]

Just a quick note for those of you who are getting the first issue of Mega Man from Archie… The original solicitation for the book stated that the comic was to arrive at comic shops today, May 4th. And following that, a number of stories on this site (including last week’s “Countdown” features) followed that […]

X series Zero got his reveal earlier this week, but don’t forget that Zero series Zero is in the works at Kotobukiya. The prototype model kit is presently being shown off at an in-store event. The prototype is still uncolored, but now we can see it various angles as well as its accessories, which look […]

Our final stop on our trip back through Mega Man‘s adventures into the North American mainstream comes not from the United States, but Canada, and a small comic book company once known as Dreamwave. Though Archie’s first issue of Mega Man will be available in comic shops next week, this will not be the first […]

While our countdown doesn’t end until tonight and the first issue doesn’t come out until next week, we have the preview pages for Archie’s Mega Man comic right here, right now. It feels like it has taken forever to get here, since the announcement at the New York Comic-Con in October of last year. It […]

To date, Mega Man‘s biggest excursion into the mainstream (mind, the video game industry wasn’t quite the same then as it is today) came to be in 1994, thanks to the animation company Ruby-Spears Productions*.   Together with Capcom Productions, they were able to create a highly-successful animated series which ran for three seasons**, and even […]

More “man” than ever?

The first time Mega Man stepped out of the world of video games and into mainstream media, he didn’t wind up having to make a very big transition.  He co-starred as a member of the N-Team in Captain N: The Game Master, an animated cartoon which aired from 1989-1991 on NBC (who, incidentally, has aired […]
