A tarot card named The Sun depicting two robots facing off. On the left is Protoman in red, and on the right is Megaman in blue. Their helmets are nearly touching. Protoman's eye and weapon are glowing. Megaman's fist is cocked near Protoman's helmet.

The Sons of Fate

Megaman: I will not fight you! I'll stand beside you! You're still their hero!
Protoman: You have no choice. I stand alone. They are fools.
Megaman: This cannot be the ONLY WAY!

PROTOVERSE MAJOR ARCANA - XIX - THE SUN Dark&Dream published a post on Ko-fi

The epic battle at the end of Act I always stuck with me, as it was my first introduction to The Protomen. Hearing both characters stand off and go back and forth between left and right on my headphones was such a powerful experience.

Mostly the same art as above but now put onto a generic album poster of the album that inspired it: Act II The Father of Death by The Protomen. It features the names of each song with a correlating colorful dot to indicate what character is in each song.

Also here's an alt poster version. This was the first piece of art I've made that I actually put a bit of my soul into since I was like 13 so it was definitely an experience for me. But I think it came out pretty alright. Right now I'm debating doing covers of the other acts but we'll see.

So neat! Did you do this yourself?

BOY OH BOY, The Protomen really delivered with Act III, but most importantly, they gave us the thing we've all been waiting so patiently to hear for the last 17 years:

the protomen are so cool somebody should make a video game based on their albums

I love how the common complaint about The Protomen is "every song is just *jim steinman riff* THIS CITY" as if it's doesn't fuck with both balls every single time

the evil protomen be like "this unincorporated community 🚬"

Protomen Act iii

It's well established that The Protomen be like "this city" but also they be like *Blade Runner synth noise*

Wily symbolically menacingly hovering over the earth. - With these new robot masters I can finally take over the world!

Wily is interrupted by a phone call from an annoyed Dr Light. Wily - Who dares to-- Light - Hey man, cut it out. Don't make me send--

Wily is shocked, terrified. Wily - Wait, no! Not--! Light - Yes, That's right--

Megaman looking adorable but has menacing fire behind him. Dr Light - The Boy.

The Boy!

Queued up Protomen Act 1 and trying not to think about The United States of America during the "we are the dead" bit

How it feels to pump iron in the morning while The Protomen inform you that even though you can’t go back, you change the path by choosing to move on and as long as you’re alive, the fight is never really done

Ive been listening to the protomen too much i just keep muttering "this city... 🚬" to myself and it's even effecting my posting. But in all fairness. This city.......... She's sleeping like a soldier trapped inside of an iron lung........ 🚬🚬🚬

✍️ Ως αυτόνομο άλμπουμ το “This City Made Us” αφήνει θετική αλλά όχι καταλυτική εντύπωση. Είναι ένα φιλόδοξο έργο με ξεκάθαρο όραμα και επαγγελματική εκτέλεση, που όμως απαιτεί μεγαλύτερη συναισθηματική επένδυση στο lore για να λειτουργήσει πλήρως και να αγγίξει τον ακροατή.

A gramaphone record player with a piece of paper under it sitting in a dark room by a window with a light peering in with the text "No one was left who could remember how it had happened. How the world had fallen under darkness." "At least no one who would do anything about it."

The silhouette of a gramophone record player on an end table blackened by the light peering through a window of a robot head with a propeller flying by. There's a chain in the foreground. Two text boxes read: "No one who would oppose the robots." "No one who would challenge their power."

An old man with a beard wearing a labcoat, tie, and a leather glove soldering a robotic arm held up with chains in a dark room. In the background the silhouette of a gramophone record player sits on an end table in front of cracked windows. A text box reads: "Or so Dr. Wiley believed."

I wish I had these at a higher resolution (I might somewhere, but I'd really have to dig for it). My good friend Allison Utterback did the colors. I did a few of these, but this was always my favorite.

A robotic man covered with wounds, holes, dripping with oil, wearing a yellow scarf, holding his wounded dangling arm held together by wires, barely standing in front of a cloud of smoke

One of the hardest images I've ever made, I'm afraid, is fanart of fanart lol

VENGEANCE ANIMATIC!! #protomen

Fuck yeah

"They don't know" meme with the guy in the corner alone at the party. The guy in the corner, representing me, says "they don't know my true passion is my edgy megaman/protomen au fanfic." The other people at the party say "post your rabbits" and "we're only here for your rabbits"
