I, the brilliant Dr. Wily, will discover Mega Man's weak point by analyzing his fan mail! This letter is from Angela C. of Spokane, WA and...is covered in flowers and butterflies. This doesn't bode well. Or perhaps it's an elaborate ruse?!




Dear Mega-Staff, Firstly, congratulations on taking up this challenge. Mega Man/Rockman is something that I believe is tricky to get 'right.' We've seen some failures of 'westernized' version of Mega Man before so please treat him well.



"Treat him well"....well done...like a steak...YES! I must build a giant heat ray cannon!




I just finished issue no. 1 and I am glad that you followed the story. I also loved how you gave Neige from Mega Man Zero 4 a cameo. I always wanted to see her active in her profession, it was a real treat.




"A real treat"....trick-or-treat...I must trick him into standing before the heat ray!




Roll looks adorable, I love the city-scapes, and I think you got Dr. Light's relationship with his babies right on!




Bah!




The only issue I have concerns Rock.




Do tell!




I consider myself to be rather fond of the Mega Man world as I have spent my - entire - life with it. So I felt a little sad that Rock in this version had blue eyes and brown hair instead of green eyes and black hair. He was so unfamiliar to me that at first I didn't know how he was!




Ah, blame Thomas's shortcomings. If it were up to me, things would've been done right!




I know it's way too late to change the color for this year's issues, but could you consider a change in the future?




Of course! I'll simply pull up these images online for reference and...that's a lot of blue eyes. And there's some brown hair. Hmm.




Respectfully, Angela C.



Mmm..no matter. Trap doors and heat rays it is!




P.S. Thank you for not calling Rock "Mega."




He'll be scrap when I'm through!
