Toronto, ON - Dec 1, 2009 - Of all the characters in CAPCOMR's vast
videogame library, arguably none is more recognizable worldwide than Mega
ManT. With more than 100 video games to his name, Mega Man is among the

has decided to rectify that, with the release of Mega ManT Megamix Vol. 1 in
January 2010.
Written and drawn by mangaka Hitoshi Ariga, the Megamix manga is a 3-volume
series beloved for its stupendous artwork and exciting stories. Outside of
Japan, Mega Man fans have dreamed of one day being able to enjoy these
adventures. and now they finally can!
The series features appearances by all the franchise regulars like Proto
Man, Dr. Wily, Dr. Light, Bass & Treble, Rush, Roll, and tons of villainous
Robot Masters! UDON has gone directly to Megamix creator Hitoshi Ariga to
obtain the original artwork files for the series, and ensure the best
localization possible. Each volume of Megamix is also packed with character
profiles, sketches, gag strips, and creator interviews. This is a series no
Mega Man fan would dare miss out on!
Mega Man Megamix Vol.1 arrives January 27th, 2010 everywhere manga is sold.
