'Mega Man' Is All-Ages Comic That Deals With War and the Nature of Humanity ...

The premise of that one -- which I loved -- saw Mega Man taking a secret identity and attending Junior High as a test of his advanced AI software. This, of course, led to your standard issue teen super-hero problems of trying to make friends and find a date to the dance without revealing that he was actually an android tasked with blowing up renegade robots after school. Basically, it was Spider-Man starring a teenage robot, with the added bonus that his battles were against all-new Robot Masters rather than characters lifted from the games. Unfortunately, the series was pretty short-lived and only made it four issues before Dreamwave collapsed earning its status as the only comic book company I can think of that couldn't make money off the Transformers. writer Ian Flynn with art by Patrick "Spaz" Spaziante -- and lettering by the legendary John Workman! -- has so far followed the plot of the first game. Of course, being that this was an 8-bit NES game released in 1987, Flynn's added more than a little depth to the original conceit of "these robots are bad and you should probably shoot them and take their stuff," incorporating plot elements that have built in the series over its dozens of installments. With all the robot masters under Wily's control, things are looking pretty grim until Rock, a household robot designed for doing chores that was Dr. Light's first creation (but who is actually -- Spoiler Warning! -- his second), volunteers to go out and stop them. Thus, Dr. Light rebuilds Rock into the heroic Mega Man and sends him out to blow things up with a laser cannon. That basic premise combined with the fact that the Robot Masters are all built around gimmicks and powers that make for some pretty great visuals lends itself perfectly to a big, fun adventure story with plenty of explosive action, and Flynn runs with it, doing exactly that. But along the way, his script also delves into some pretty surprising stuff. And in the second issue, the ideas of Light's pacifism and Mega Man's role as a warrior comes to the forefront. Flynn examines the character in a way that I've never thought about, even as a lifelong fan, showing him as someone caught between a desire to help people by defeating the enemies that threaten him and the guilt that comes from killing other robots.

STILL hoping to hear Archie/Sega selling the #229 cover as a massive poster. I’d buy that in a heartbeat.

The Universe Volume collection, this early, is an interesting idea. While I’ve quite buying physical comics lately (Still waiting for a digital subscription service, in the meantime my old physicals are sealed and slowly increasing in value), that they would sell volume sets so quickly implies to me a large demand.

Yes, Genesis Pt 4 cover looks extremely epic, but don’t leave out Scourge! I’m loving that cover as well.

RT : Enjoying the Archie "Sonic" comic well into its 50th issue even as everybody else, unbeknownst to me, was panning it.
