The Second Waltz
Last week we talked about Hideki Ishikawa’s W. Waltz, and how she appears in one panel of the Dreamwave Mega Man comic. Well, it’s brought to our attention that we were wrong about one thing: She’s actually in 2 panels! Consider us corrected.
ROCK’N GAMERS vs BIT BENDERS
The continuing adventures of Shigeto Ikehara’s Rock’n Game Boy in Rockman World.
Glyde’s Favorite Subject: Glyde!
Today we got a bit more news on the Legends 3 Prototype Version! The 3DS store should be pretty close to opening, and anticipation for our first hands-on from the project is really building up! And if that isn’t enough DASH for ya, today we’ll be looking at another DASH character, the devilishly narcissistic criminal […]
X8: Off The Charts
Your pic this friday hails from the X8 Prototype Gallery! A rough size scale chart comparing X with the main boss characters of X8. Read more if you feel like reviewing my ramblings about this particular image.
Who Puts the “Rock” in Rock’n Game Boy
If you subscribed to the new Archie Mega Man comic, it should be in your mailbox today! I’m still eagerly awaiting its arrival myself. While we wait on the mail to arrive, let’s kill time by looking at some Rockman manga from the early 90’s. Shigeto Ikehara was the artist behind the very first Rockman […]
Hideki Ishikawa’s Mega Man Universe
I’m pretty excited about the Archie Mega Man comic (which should be arriving in my mailbox any time now), and can’t wait to see what they’ll do with the Mega Man story.

The Rockman Kanzen Hisshou Bon (that I call the Rockman Total Winning Handbook) was drawn up in 1987 and officially released on January 17, 1988, exactly one […]
Reminiscin’ bout Rockman’s reference books
The Rockman & Rockman X Daizukan, or what I call the Big Reference Book, was one of the first Japanese books to enter my Mega Man collection back in the late 90’s. Before I happened across it on eBay, I had no idea that such a book had even existed. A book about a video […]
DASH2’s Leading Ladies Go Undercover
I feel like doing some more DASH today. We already looked at the front inside flap of this jacket cover a while back, and today I’m going to show off the underside of the Rockman DASH 2 Final Digouter’s File. It contains 5 rare sketches to do with the game’s many heroines. Read on!
DASH, Don’t Rush
Yesterday was a huge day for Legends fans. I was the most excited I’ve been about the game since it was first announced last year! I was completely taken aback, seeing what a Legends game made in this decade can be. I am so looking forward to the prologue game. Who’s ready to wall-dash? Since […]
