Video game comic books...

Wasn't the suikoden 3 manga supposed to start coming out this month? I vaguely remember reading that somewhere. Same thing with the Capcom vs Snk manga, although what i saw of that sucked.

TokyoPop's Suikoden III manga already had it's first three volumes published, but I haven't seen any of them at the locals Barnes & Noble.

I wonder what titles they'll bring?

I hope we get the MegaMan.EXE manga.

Nope, the first volume launches in May.

Maximo's one shot I thought was better than the first DMC issue so I highly disagree with Captain Vegetable there. It has some really nice art and coloring and gives Maximo some character. I actually wish they adapted the comic stuff to a game since it would make a really good sidestory.

To be fair, I loved the art, the personallity, and the dialogue. The overall plot sucked, though. Scab?! WTF is that all about? I thought it would have been much, MUCH better if, instead of trying to develop their own independant bad guy, they just kept Achille and had him manipulate things behind the scenes. If Scab had had a cooler name, and had he been some kind of supreme general in Achille's army of the undead, I would have felt much better about it.

Fair enough. I didn't mind the name Scab but I found it kind of refreshing them using a new villain, I thought he was a good enemy.

Love that they put in Death too.

Death was the best part of the whole book.

Now that you've got me talking about it, I feel like it's a shame that it was only a one shot. There's so much with Maximo that could have been explored. Even if I didn't like the villian, I'm sure it could have grown into an excellent monthly book.

Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog series is well worth checking out, particularly if you're a fan of the early '90s cartoon series it's based on. I imagine it wouldn't appeal to everyone, but it's well written, adds a lot to the Sonic mythos, and manages to successfully tap into the essence of everything that once made Saturday morning cartoons great.

We will, and quite soon. Viz'll be publishing it, and under their Shonen Jump line, to boot.

Some bad news, though; TP took Metroid off of their upcoming release list that appears at the front of their most recent books. :/
