Lil Formers #180: Seasprey Supreme

Well with Lil Seaspray being one of my most often used characters, I figured I should do something about his new figure coming out.

It’s finally his day!

Early pics of him here: New Seaspray Toy

Matt worked on this game!

So, out now is the new game Tatsunoko VS Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. It’s a North American update to the Japanese game, which pits the Capcom cast (Ryu, Mega Man, Viewtiful Joe…) against characters from the Japanese animation studio Tatsunoko (Gatchaman, Tekkaman Blade, Yatterman, many others).

I actually worked on part of this game doing color assists (ie: flats) for about half of the in-game story endings. Even got my name in the credits! Check it out!

This is the second game I have been credited in, the first being Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. However that was a download-only game, and this is the first in-store boxed game with my name in it. Pretty cool! Who’s played it!?

Matt interviewed at CBR

Taking a break! UPDATE

Hi guys, on a  bit of a break this week for X-mas, but I’ll be back with a new comic on Monday the 28th! See you then!

UPDATE:

Gah!! Seems my website was infected with some sort of ad malware over the weekend? Just finally figured it out. So I’ll be working on a strip tonight to put up tomorrow(Tuesday) sorry guys!

Street Fighter story by Matt, in stores this Wednesday!

Hi guys!

This Wednesday Dec 16th sees the release of Street Fighter II Turbo #10, the latest exciting chapter of UDON’s Street Fighter comic series. What’s special abotu this issue for me though is that that it features a backup story written by yours truly! I have had a few chances to write some stories before (one published only in Japan so far, and one that was a pack-in for the Street Fighter IV game), and I’ve worked as editor on dozens of comics and books, but this is my first writing credit in a regular comic that shows up on comic shop shelves. Pretty cool!

The story is the a fun little thing about the mysterious Street Fighter character Q, and is drawn by the awesome Bob Strang. And of course there’s the main story by the kick-ass regular team of Ken Siu-Chong and Chamba.

Anyone who wants to support one of their favorite web comic artists, please pick up the SF II Turbo #10 this Wednesday! Covers & preview art below!

MOTU Classics Evil-lyn

So, Masters of the Universe Classics is about the only toy line I collect. Recently they revealed the April 2010 figure - Evil-lyn and I thinks she looks pretty cool! Though for some reason it has started a big controversy among MOTU fans that she is a repaint of the Teela figure, with a new head & new weapons.

I can’t for he life of me figure out why people are whining so much. A couple points:

-The original Evil-lyn figure in the 80s WAS just a repaint of Teela
-The whole MOTU line is made up of reused parts, just as it was in the 80s. Most just get a new head, new weapons & new loose armor. Faker actually contains no new parts at all!

Tranfans are fairly used to repaints… maybe you guys can talk some sense into the He-fans heh.

Octoblog: SD Transformers

I’m going to keep saying “Octoblog” despite it no longer being October ;) cuz Novblog is lame…

Anyways, thought you guy would enjoy another old Transformers fanimation. This was always one of my favs. You can probably figure why. Stay for the bloopers at the end!

Ocotblog: Lucky Star-scream

This video is so crazy that I feel everyone of my readers must watch it, heh. It’s a TF parody of the intro song for the anime Lucky Star. Thought that’ snot really important. Just watch and let your brain melt.
