This exclusive cover is a special version of issue Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki #1 we’re selling only at conventions or special events UDON is attending. It’s limited to only 400 copies all summer and we’ll be autographing copies at the conventions we attend for as long as they last.
The first show you can purchase it at is Seattle’s Emerald City Comicon in March, but we’ll also be at the Calgary Fan Expo, San Diego Comicon, Otakon, Toronto Fan Expo and PAX, with possibly more to cons yet to be announced.
It’s very helpful if you pre-order Ibuki #1 at your local comic book store if you intend to buy it.
NOW is the time to pre-order #1.
Pre-orders show retailers that people are excited about the comic and they’ll improve their order numbers if they see interest. It’s the best way to ensure you get a copy of the issue and also show support for what we do.
Your support of this series means a lot to us!

Of all the characters in CAPCOM’s vast video game library, arguably none is more recognizable worldwide than Mega Man. With more than 100 games to his name, Mega Man is among the most iconic figures of gaming, but despite this, the original blue bomber’s Japanese manga adventures have never been available to English readers. UDON has decided to rectify that, with the release of Mega Man 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 27, 2010 everywhere manga is sold, while volumes 2 & 3 arrive in April and July, respectively. Look below for your first preview pages:
