Mega Man Adventures Vol.1 Delayed to July 14

Originally scheduled to ship on May 26, Udon Entertainment has confirmed that Mega Man Adventures Vol. 1 has been delayed to July 14. Amazon updated the release date a few days ago, but with Udon now confirming the change, the delay appears to be official.

For the uninitiated, Mega Man Adventures collects Archie Comics’ Mega Man issues #1–12 along with every variant cover, plus a brand-new 7-page short story by Ian Flynn and Ryan Jampole. You can check out sample pages from the bonus story here.

Fingers crossed July 14 sticks!

First Look at Mega Man Adventures Volume 2

With a week left to pre-order the Deluxe Edition of Mega Man Adventures Volume 1, Udon Entertainment and Zoop have slipped us a small preview of Volume 2, featuring Proto Man front and center.

Like the first book, Volume 2 will receive a Deluxe Edition packed with extras, sold exclusively through Zoop around May 2026, once Volume 1 begins shipping. A standard edition, more widely available online and in stores, is also on the way.

For the uninitiated, Mega Man Adventures is a line of hardcover collections for Archie’s Mega Man comics. Each volume includes new short bonus stories that reunite writer Ian Flynn and artist Ryan Jampole.

You can pre-order the Volume 1 Deluxe Edition through Zoop, and the standard edition through Amazon or your preferred bookseller. More updates on Volume 2 (and beyond) are coming soon.

Mega Man Adventures Vol.1 Deluxe Edition Pre-Orders Open, Bonus Story Preview Pages

Heads up, Archie Mega Man fans: the pre-order campaign for the deluxe hardcover edition of Mega Man Adventures Volume 1 is now live. Pre-order within the first 72 hours to save $5 and snag an exclusive gold metal card illustrated by Jeffrey 'Chamba' Cruz.

Also, here are a couple of preview pages from the all-new bonus short story by Ian Flynn and Ryan Jampole. There’s no dialogue on these yet, but Jampole’s handiwork makes it pretty clear what's going down...

Mega Man Adventures Vol.1 Deluxe Hardcover Announced

Udon Entertainment has opened a sign-up page for a deluxe hardcover edition of Mega Man Adventures Volume 1: A Hero is Built, which will be distributed exclusively through Zoop. While Zoop typically serves as a crowdfunding platform for comic creators, Udon tells me they’re simply testing it out — both the deluxe and standard edition will be released regardless of the campaign’s results. The campaign goes live on November 18th.

To set itself apart from the standard edition, the deluxe hardcover will feature a foil cover, nine trading cards with character bios by Ian Flynn, and a folded poster. Like the standard edition, it includes Archie Comics' Mega Man issues #1–12 with all variant covers, plus an all-new 7-page short story by Ian Flynn and Ryan Jampole.
