Trivia

 * In 2010, when asked about possibly localizing Shigeto Ikehara's classic series manga, UDON's managing editor Matt Moylan responded that he thinks it could possibly sell better than Yoshihiro Iwamoto's Rockman X series, but there's a few hurdles to overcome. For example, most of the original mangas haven't been reprinted in over twenty years, and while they could scan the artwork from the original books, that would require finding copies in good enough condition to scan, unlike Hitoshi Ariga's Mega Man Megamix and Yoshihiro Iwamoto's Rockman X mangas. Which have both been reprinted in recent years and are readily available to scan.
