Servbots South of the Border
Saw this on the art blog scene, thought it was pretty amazing. Pop culture work prints based on Día de los Muertos calaveras. Though not technically supposed to be a servbot, it can’t get much closer. You can catch some of the others here. Artistic sweetness.
The Weird, Wild & Whimsical World of “Rock & Rush”
The Capricious Rock & Rush is the comic series drawn by Capcom’s accidental manga artist, Sakura. These and his other works have appeared in various Capcom books, fan club magazines and promotional materials, and were even included as unlockable art in the gallery of the PS1 Rockman ports (soon to be available on the PSN!) [...]
The Power of Love
There’s less than a week left in the year, so let’s end the year with love, memories, and joy! Not mine, but someone else’s. From the pages of CAP! magazine comes Love Love Capcom Characters! Hideki Ishikawa draws some of his favorite Capcom faces. Naturally, there’s some Rockman love in there too! So snuggle up [...]
On A Roll
Hey guys! It’s Monday, and that usually means an update here at the Lav! BUT…. I started playing the new Donkey Kong Country this weekend… and haven’t stopped. I’ve barely paused to break for maintaining bodily functions. This game has stolen my soul and hijacked my life (and I’m lovin’ it)! I’m afraid I’m not [...]
ZX Tunes Cover Cavalcade
Another of these requests I’ve been meaning to do, though not for as long as the last one. The Rockman ZX Arranged Soundtrack “ZX Tunes” came out in 2006 and sported 8 different CD title cards, each with a unique cover created by an artist who worked with the Rockman series. Apparently images of these [...]
TvC: CGoH Endings
This was a request I had a while back. I promised I’d scan these, and promptly totally forgot all about it. But today I’m catching up with some of the things I’ve procrastinated with, and so here we are! The Japanese Tatsunoko vs Capcom Cross Generation of Heroes Official Character Guidebook collected the ending images [...]
A busy morning for Mega Man
I don’t usually do current events, but I’m giving it an editorial crack today…
A servbot’s gotta do what a servbot’s gotta do
And sometimes, a servbot’s gotta kick some zombie entrails.
Before they were games
I was looking this over at my affiliate Protodude’s Rockman Corner and I must say, early game builds always captivate me. Perhaps because it’s so familiar and yet so different. It’s pretty amazing the stuff that knowledgeable people can find by sifting through the game data, too.
I like Big O.
The Big O. In the giant mecha genre, it’s something of an acquired taste. But it’s been very inspirational. Rockman MegaMix author Hitoshi Ariga penned the manga adaptation, and Big O’s unique Megadeus style was the inspiration for “Big G” Illumina from Infinity Mijinion’s stage in Rockman X6. So if you’re interested in Big O [...]
