-ROBOT MASTER THREAD-

[Mikero]

If it was green and yellow though... That'd be somethin' else!

[preventerWIND]

So, he's like a sharper Quickman?

Faster and all around more powerful, faster than Turbo Man even. He's named Express Man because once he starts he's hard to stop, he keeps up pace like a tight wound clock!

He runs on solar energy, the purple blades are act as solar panels, and his weapon is Solar Cannon.

I intend to make Eclipse Man soon, I'm sure you see where I'm going with that one.

I'm making a nice green themed robot soon Mike. He's gonna be kickin' so don't you worry.

[Mikero]

YEAH WELL...

I made a fast Robot Master too... You'll see her soon enough!

[ASR]

I have a great idea for a Robot Master, and if it turns out well, I'm going to be doing a whole group of them.

Green Man.

You can guess the theme.

[NovaMan XP]

Oh! OH! I get it!

So, we'll see Triangle Man then?!

[Mikero]

I have a great idea for a Robot Master, and if it turns out well, I'm going to be doing a whole group of them.

Green Man.

You can guess the theme.

DRUGS?

CANADIAN POLITICAL PARTIES?

[ASR]

...Triangle Maaaaan, Triangle Maaaaan, Triangle Maaaaan hates Particle Maaaaaan.

[preventerWIND]

In case anybody is curious, heres the original Express Man from the comics, he looks pretty different from my redesign. Much smaller frame, and he's decked out with fins and #####. He also has a bad case of red eye.

[Johncarllos]

Pull over?
Wow.

[preventerWIND]

Heres Barrage Man too, quality is bleh, blame the digi cam.

[Mikero]

Is that the Dreamwave where he's not only a Super Fighting Robot but also a kid in Middle School who's watch tranforms him into MM? I have the first Pocket book of that, but those scenes aren't in it (I think). It's drawn exactly the same. At the back is a preview of the X comic that apparently didn't happen.

Also I think Zero or X comes back in time to get Dr. Light in the regular story about Classic MM.

[preventerWIND]

Yeah, its the same one. It only lasted 4 issues and stopped at the part where X travels to the past.

Someguy has ever issue known to man, even the special edition 1st issue covers. Maybe he can upload them all, they can be hosted on MMM's site when it goes back up.

[Mikero]

I really don't remember there being a chase scene with Express Man in the pocket version, but I'll check later. The Barrage Man part is very familiar, I think it happens near the start or something. Don't know. It's sad that the best part of those comics was the buildings, which really just were like BN/Pokemon style future buildings but whatever. I like future buildings.

[preventerWIND]

In the first issue, the first page is scenery with all the buildings, and tons of cameo's like billboards with Zero on them, Mets, and 8-bit Mega Man.

There were also some air ships from MML I think.

That's because Dreamwave was shutdown because:

1) Pat Lee blatantly ripped off other famous works

2) Embezzled a lot of money, and ended up NOT paying a lot of his artists and writers.

Also, I think some of the Videogame comics and stuff, he didn't actually have the rights to do them.

EDIT: I could be wrong, this is just what I remember off the top of my head. Also, I'll throw up an RM design at some point.

[ASR]

That sounds rotten.

[preventerWIND]

well, today at school I finished sketches of 3 Robot Masters, and 2 are being worked out right now.

Monarch Woman; I decided to change it to a girl, because it looks better, sounds better, and because Rez told us not to make more girl RM's.

Pyro Man was finalized and looks a lot better now. Sorta.

Rocket Man. ##### yeah, name says it all. He looks awesome.

and finally, Eclipse Man is almost done, and Archer/Arrrow Man is being worked on too. Good design for him, I'll need some help with his name and color though, probably gonna be the green RM I promised.

I'll upload them soon.

[ASR]

You should make it Matriarch Woman instead.

[Majikn]

There are Matriarch Butterflies now?

[ASR]

Also Patriarch ones.

They're all ruling their own Katerpillar Kingdoms.

[preventerWIND]

Arlight, here they are, theres some glare from the pencil pressure. But they should be pretty visible either way. I've made up little diagrams to show how their weapon and weakness works. They'll all be explained a lot more when I get the final pieces up.

Pyro Man's weakness hasn't been figured out yet, since theres more bosses on the way.

Archer Man is still in the dark right now, if anyone wants to submit some ideas that'd be cool.

The MM Dreamwave was cleared with Capcom, but yeah I know about the rest. Pat Lee is only any good at giant robots a la Transformers and Iron Man: House Of M anyway.

[TheRedPriest]

The Dreamwave Mega Man comic was beyond AWFUL.  It could not have died soon enough.

[preventerWIND]

It was pretty bad, but I still would've liked to see it continue, it was still pretty interesting. Though, adding the whole X series Back to the Future jazz ##### was a bad idea.

[TheRedPriest]

It was a bad idea, period.  The power ranger rip off, the school #####, the making "Rocky" X with the "I'M A REEL BOY" chip.  God, those people couldn't have done much worse.

[preventerWIND]

Yeah yeah, it was a messed up conception. Especially Heat Man being the only real Robot Master to make an appearance. It was just interesting to read.

[TheRedPriest]

If you like reading garbage?  I guess so.

[preventerWIND]

Go to a dump site and dig around in the garbage for a while! I bet you'll find some interesting stuff!

[TheRedPriest]

I wouldn't want to get in the way of the Inti Creates game design team.

[preventerWIND]

Oh ho ho! You sly dog you!

[Morgan Guyer]

So I didn't win the contest...

How do I go about exacting my revenge?

[preventerWIND]

Start an organization bent on taking down CoA. Since they not only gave you one, but they gave them to a bunch of bastards who joined the forum just to get the codes, and then sold them on eBay for a couple bills.

Capcom sure knows how to spot real fans.

[NovaMan XP]

How do I go about exacting my revenge?

Draw your robot masters blowing up Capcom?

[ChaosVortex]

What made you think they were looking for fans?

They like your wallet.

[Morgan Guyer]

Does anyone know that department's number? I'm gonna call in...

I'm gonna get one even if I have to buy an old NES cart and send it to them to make a kit for me.

I even paid for this ##### and didn't get my money back.

[NovaMan XP]

Maybe they'll make more.

Maybe they'll make enough to supply for the ones who got screwed over while ordering and got their money sent to Capcom limbo.

[preventerWIND]

What made you think they were looking for fans?

They were looking for fans. They're all just complete ##### heads that don't know their ass from their elbow, or real fans for that matter.

[Mikero]

Enacting any revenge now would seal their impression that you only wanted the code for a press kit.

[preventerWIND]

Who cares what they think? They're gonna die for this injustice anyway.

[Mikero]

What they thought was important enough before. Just saying.

[preventerWIND]

And their thoughts were absolute #####, they couldn't choose the real fans from the chumps.

Heres Barrage, same deal as that Express Man, bear with me, still in the learning phase. And I've notice there should be another arm, blame my laziness and forgetfulness.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Wow, the winners are crap.

The guy made Megaman music by badly beep-boxing? Awesome, winner. The other has Mega Man as his licence plate? Sweet, automatic win for free advertising! What? The last guy made a very crappy trailer? WHOA DARK KNIGHT MAN HE DEFINITELY WINS!

God. The Honorable Mention should have won; he was ten times better than those bozos.

[preventerWIND]

One guy wore his Mega Man shirt until he got the code. What a loser.

[ASR]

I saw that. It was kind of gross, but clever.

Just... stupid, though.

And after he got the code, he still wore it.

[Morgan Guyer]

I saw that. It was kind of gross, but clever.

Just... stupid, though.

And after he got the code, he still wore it.

ARE YOU #####ING KIDDING ME!? HE GOT A CODE FOR THAT?!

Granted, my ##### didn't look too great in MS Paint, but I had to come up with a lot of ideas, and this #####ing kid wore a shirt for a couple days and got a code...

UN-BE-#####ING-LIEVABLE. Come Monday, I'm bombarding CoA with phone calls and e-mails until they get me a damn press kit.

[ASR]

He got it a few days before you did. I think you started on the day they stopped giving codes out.

[Morgan Guyer]

He got it a few days before you did. I think you started on the day they stopped giving codes out.

Still lay'n down the hammer.
