Prepare the fisticuffs, Marquess of Queensbury rules!
In the first of two auxiliary books, we’re covering some early battles that just didn’t have space to be covered in the main events. Comics Alliance has another instalment of their weekly recap and interview with Vincent Lovallo, and a preview for Mega Man: Worlds Unite Battles #1. Here, there are three fights to be played out; go back to the start where Mega Man squared up against the Deadly three of Six before capture, find out the stepping stones the Mega Man X cast took from fighting Vile in their world to reaching the Sonic Boom universe, and see the first defence of Mega Man’s world as Dr Light’s Robot Masters attempt to stop the roboticised Sonic Man!

Loving the art of this issue! Especially in that Eggman and Willy page, and can’t believe how badass Sonic Man is, is more intimidating than Metal Sonic!
More than mecha sally and mecha sonic
So… there’s no chance of this being digitally released? Cause I don’t want to have to go onto eBay for something I can’t get at a comic shop anymore…
You could order it off of the Archie Website.
Interesting… do they still ship to Australia?
I don’t believe so. You’d have to special order it at a comic shop.
Good news, we’ll be getting the Mega Man Worlds Unite Battle Books AND Mega Man #50, my local Comic Shop put up on their Facebook the list of comics coming on Thursday, and they’re both on the list 🙂
