“The real highlight for me, though, is the final, no-holds-barred grudge match of MEGA MAN VERSUS BREAK MAN – brother versus brother in a battle royale that has been brewing for nearly 30 issues! If you were looking for a time to jump on this critically acclaimed series, now is that time!”
Rather than the typical “first few pages” sort of preview (that’s surely coming as the street date draws closer), we’ve got a look at in-progress artwork, showing inks, color interiors and the cover art without its usual trade dress.
The images offer a rare glimpse into the creative and editorial process behind the Archie Action titles…and remember that the final order cutoff date is coming up on Monday, January 26.
Check out the art, as well as solicitation text for the issue, below.
