Mega Man (Dreamwave Productions)

Mega Man is a comic book from the Mega Man series published by Dreamwave Productions between 2003-2004. Only four issues were printed before Dreamwave went out of business. The four volumes were also collected into a pocket-sized trade paperback (TPB). Nowadays, the comic is difficult to find.

Plot
Dr. Light enrolls Mega Man (as Rock) to Junior High School so he can adapt more to humans, but Mega really doesn't want to go. When he arrives, he befriends two humans named Alan and Chelsea and gets bullied by a trio calling themselves the Boltz Boys.

But, later it is revealed that the Boltz trio are actually Dr. Wily's nephews. While Rock appears to be enjoying his time in school, he comes home one night to find the lab completely destroyed with Dr. Light, Roll, Rush and Auto missing.

Robot Master appearances
The only Robot Master to appear in the story is Heat Man from Mega Man 2 (though Dive Man, Fire Man, Stone Man, Crash Man, and Quick Man appear on the cover of the first issue).

Instead of game bosses, a group of original robots were created for the story, including Barrage Man (a robot that can manipulate traffic), Express Man (a robot that is very fast) and Multi Man (a robot who contains several clones of itself inside his body). In the fourth and final issue multiple Robot Masters make cameo appearances inside Dr. Wily's corporation: Guts Man embroiders the entrance, Cloud Man as a holographic welcome sign, Cut Man, Magnet Man, Tengu Man, Air Man, Turbo Man, Astro Man, and Ice Man in display cases.

Trivia

 * In the story, when Mega Man is in his human form as Rock, he is referred to as Rocky and not Rock.

The last frame of the comic contained this message: "To be continued in MEGAMAN X. Coming soon from Dreamwave!!" The company went out of business before the issues could be printed.
 * The story takes place in a fictional setting known as Mega City, formery known as Monstropolis. (based on Monstertropolis from the American manual of the first Mega Man game.)
 * At the end of the last issue of the miniseries, Mega Man X and Zero were shown fighting Vile in the darker future of the Mega Man X continuity. X travels back in time and asks Dr. Light for help.
 * There were three different variant covers for the first issue. The most expensive is the third version, called a "holofoil" cover with an image of Mega Man and Rush high above city.
