Following in the footsteps of the Udon and Viz comic versions of Mega Man will be a new version by Archie comics. Long time Sonic artist Patrick “Spaz” Spaziante will provide the drawings, while action/adventure veteran Ian Flynn will be the writer.

“Since 1987, the enormously successful Mega Man franchise has conquered media from video games to television to manga. Archie Comics is ready to carry on this tradition of success, holding true to the spirit of the old school with a fresh eye on Mega Man‘s strong potential in the world of American comics,” promised Archie Comics editor of the Mega Man franchise, Paul Kaminski.
