Mega Man: Mastermix

In 2018 and 2019, Udon Comics collected and re-presented Hitoshi Ariga’s beloved Mega Man manga stories in a deluxe, full-color format as Mega Man: Mastermix. This four-issue series, written and drawn primarily by Ariga with co-writer M. Kirie Hayashi, served as a definitive English-language compilation of his work for the franchise, bringing a cohesive and vibrant reading experience to fans. It matters as a polished, creator-driven tribute to the classic video game series, showcasing Ariga’s distinctive art and storytelling across a compact, self-contained run.
