Waitaminute! Didn't I already post the cover to Archie Comics' Mega Man issue #13? Why, yes I did. That's the normal newsstand / subscriber cover, though. This is the variant cover that you'll only be able to find in comic shops, and its grand reveal is right here on Destructoid!
The Mega Man variant covers are typically badass renditions of a Robot Master that features prominently in that issue. To commemorate his grand introduction to the Archie MM universe, Pharaoh Man appears in a sick action pose care of artist Jonathan Hill. This is the finished piece, by the way -- color will not be added. A sketch is the only way to perfectly capture Pharaoh Man's raw murderous instinct.
MM #13 will appear on shelves in May, so you have some time to mentally prepare for Pharoah Man's soul-chilling gaze.

Snake Man or no...man.
Hmm .... comics or graphic novel ...
Seriously, I'd pop MM3 in just to listen to that theme.
