Slowly but surely, I'm turning Destructoid into my own personal Mega Man fan blog. You don't mind, right?
The newest Archie Mega Man comic, issue #10, will be arriving in specialty shops on Wednesday and on newsstands by next Tuesday, but we've got exclusive an preview right here, right now! If you've not been following along, we are in the middle of the Mega Man 2 story arc entitled "The Return of Dr. Wily." Return from what? He hasn't exactly gone anywhere! Dr. Wily is like the Big Boy burger chain in that regard.
In the pages below, Mega Man must make his way through Heat Man's lair before squaring off against the overgrown Zippo himself. Of course, not before getting smacked down by Quick Man for the second time in as many issues. I'm loving how Quick Man is presented as this invincible titan because of his delirious speed. Why doesn't Wily just make a whole army of Quick Men?

Do subscriptions usually come so early?
Because 1) it's not Japanese, 2) it's not a toy or model figurine, 3) Mega Man is videogame-related, and 4) just BECAUSE.
Maybe they can fit them in there in a future DLC release(unless they are already there but one needs to pay for an unlock key. Gold Unlock Key Comics?)?
