Yusuke Murata’s Epic Rockman

Today’s offering comes from the recent Capcom Heroes 2012 calendar, art by Yusuke Murata. If you’ve perused near the end of the Mega Man Official Complete Works book, you may remember him as the guy who submitted the original Dust Man and Crystal Man designs as a kid, then grew up to become a successful […]

25 Days of Rockman

In honor of Rockman’s 25th birthday, I’m attempting something I’ve never managed to do in the past: 25 posts. IN A ROW. One for each year of Rockman’s existence. I’ll be putting up some very old and very rare stuff I’ve been saving for a special occasion. And this time, nothing’s gonna stop me… Unless […]

What’s up, Doc?

Doc Robot K-176. A series of monstrous robots whose skills, attacks and even weakness change radically depending on which program is installed.

Here’s a little something from CAP! Vol. […]

The Sigma Factor

We’re playing catchup here at the Lav for that longer than anticipated e-vacation. I had planned for this to go up two weeks ago on the Fourth of July / J-Day of Sigma. Unfortunately, I was playing hookey from blogging that week. So, I could either wait a whole ‘nother year, or we could pretend […]

Iceman vies for the number one slot!

Your free pic this Friday comes from the Rockman Battle & Chase soundtrack booklet, featuring art of Iceman in his racing machine, the Cool Mobile. Note the differences in angle and pose from the “tugging on the glove” Iceman racer image used just about everywhere. This variation didn’t make it into the Mega Man Official […]
