Lore?!?!!
Day 16: Antagonist
Thank you @noise-reblogs for the idea! I've been meaning to draw them
A bit more in detail response below (no drawings though sorry lol)
The mm3 robot masters are the least volatile towards on another compared to the mm1 and mm2 robot masters. Unlike with the mm1 robot masters (in my headcannon) being like family to eachother, the mm3 feel like coworkers, or even friends. With the mm2, they don't get along because they were not made to: because Wily made them for destroying megaman, they don't feel the need to get along. Mm1 fight sometimes because siblings fight (and it's really funny), of course they do.
The mm3 have some clashing personalities or ideas, but they are pretty understanding of eachother- or at least Shadow man is. Of course there are still mm3 robot masters that refuse to be in the same room, like snake and gemini.
You know what comic book company and it's characters deserve more recognition? Valiant.
Valiant has so many interesting characters, it's quite the shame that they don't get as much love as any characters from the Big Two. Maybe a movie, or TV series, or video game could help expand the fan base.
When I gave my brother five comic companies and asked him which he would pitch a game to if given the chance, he said Valiant. He's not a comic book reader like I am, so he like just chose the way that could give some freedom to the work. When listing off characters a Souls-like game he would want to create, he stopped me and picked X-O Manowar. Which you know what? I think X-O Manowar could work in a Souls-like video game.
"But what about the Shadowman game and the Bloodshot movie? People know those." Yes, but how big was their impact?
And moving on from video games to movies, I think Valiant's characters would work better in animation than live-action. There's something about the colors of Valiant characters that pop better in anything not live-action. Taking Batinthesun's Ninjak vs the Valiant Universe for example, while costumes are spot on, they don't look as good, the colors don't pop as much, least in my opinion.
What characters would I pick for a Valiant animated movie? First thought is Shadowman, then Punk Mambo popped into my head. She could have a style that sort of meets in the middle of Miles' universe and Hobie's universe from Across the Spider-Verse.
Maybe someone could make an animated series for Valiant's immortal brothers, the Eternal Warriors, Ivar the Timewalker, and Armstrong. You could even throw their sister in too. War-Queen is pretty interesting for a slightly newer character, newer in that she only appeared within like the last decade I belive.
Or maybe could have the Deliquents, Archer, Armstrong, Quantum and Woody, as a ragtag bunch of misfits for a more comedic animated series.
My freak of choice Lost in Random is a good game!
