AOaughhh first off this message is so sweet!! I really appreciate it!! It means a lot‼️‼️‼️ to me‼️‼️

[you-cant-fuck-megaman]

I've not fully read the Megaman IDW comics but i really really liked how much spotlight and personality they gave Cossack, i wish that the mainline games also gave some attention to Cossack properly (other than mentioning him by name for creating Tundra Man and other stuff)

What's your take on Cossack?

cossack owns, he's my favorite of the classic trio of doctors.

out of the three, we know the absolute least about him for the reasons you already mentioned--most of what we know is from the expanded verse in the Archie/Megamix comics. but it's clear he's a decent guy.

a lot of his appeal for me lies in the fact that he's clearly coded as a villainous mad scientist archetype. there's a lot of things to be said as for why the bad guys tend to be more appealing to fans than good guys. there's a frequent psychological pull towards the antagonists or edgy rivals as opposed to the straight-laced heroes.

meanwhile, right in the middle of the 90s, Russia and Russian characters were pretty clearly the designated go-to antagonists of choice for the yanks, and everything about Cossack plays into that archetype. his castle is an onion dome, the C logo is reminiscent of a star-and-sickle, his design is based on the revolutionist Trotsky, his music is stylized after traditional Russian music emphasizing the staccato notes interspersed between mournful melodies, and his fortress is set in the grim deathly russian snow. he clearly is designed after every single stereotypical antagonistic beat possible, the eeeeeeevil Russian bad enemy guy. hell, his original name was apparently going to fucking be Dr. Vice.

and yet, he's a hero. not just that, he's a personable hero. he loves his family. he loves his daughter. he wants to do right by her and take care of her. he's clearly just as into design as Wily is, but without the copy-paste of other people's robots. he's a self-made man, a man's man, who worked to get to his position and now works for his family. he's had tragedy befall him and yet pushes on through and helps Light.

having someone clearly leaning into the villain #aesthetic but still be a stalwart good guy is 2000% my jelly and i am all here for it. i'll take five with a side of pirozhki and vodka.

oh yeah and megaman 4 was a good game

SciLab Scientists:

(Note: These are more like Guest Muses at best, so their descriptions will be brief.)

Dr. Yuichiro Hikari: Lan and Hub's father, and a brilliant scientists. He was the one who used Hub's DNA to create Megaman.EXE

Dr. Wily: Former leader of the criminal organization known as WWW (World Three.) He has since been reformed after the battle against the Cybeasts, and now is doing everything in his power to atone for his crimes.

Dr. Cossack: A SciLab scientist who was in charge of the AutoNavi project, and the creator of Bass.EXE. He once regretted creating Bass after he became the Chaos Lord and tried to destroy humanity in the past. Now that he's learned that Bass has reformed and is now trying to protect the Multiverse, Dr. Cossack is starting to have hope in his boy again.

DR. MIKHAIL COSSACK

First Appearance: AkumaTh's Comics #1096

Dimension: Prime AkumaVerse

Allegiance: Civilian

Dr. Mikhail Sergeyevich Cossack is a Russian Robotics Engineer and member of the Stravinsky Science Academy. Alongside his daughter, he lived a normal life for a Robotics Engineer in Russia until Dr. Wily arrived. Wily kidnapped his daughter and his plan was to use the robots Cossack made to make him seem like he was taking over the world. But after seeing the machines made, Dr. Wily decided to create the Robot Masters.

After designing the 8 Robot Masters of the 4th Generation, Dr. Wily forced Dr. Cossack to make a threat and distract Mega Man long enough for his real plan. Like always, Mega Man defeated the Robot Masters and Dr. Cossack. But before he could get punished for the actions he was forced to take, Proto Man revealed the truth and Mega Man went on to defeat Dr. Wily once more.

After that event, Dr. Cossack built Beat as a gift for his savior. And to ensure that Wily would receive punishment he wouldn’t have gotten at the time, the public story was that the 8 Robot Masters were created by Dr. Cossack. But since then, Dr. Cossack tried his best to create robots that could be on par with the likes of Wily and Light. His current creations are the Botaniks, Delta and Giga Man.

Fun Facts:

The Botaniks are originally created for the Sprite Comic Series Crash and Bass. The Author was kind enough to release their sprites publicly.

(September 3 - September 22 2023)

I never really know what to say in these things, but I hope the drawings will speak for me. More under the cut (there's a LOTTTTT this time.)

Revisited an idea as previously seen in Feb. 2023 Highlights.

Rejected Sasha sketch.

I realized I had only drawn Milka four times so I decided to rectify that. (But who's to say she isn't in all of my drawings but invisible.)

Quentin makes me happy.

(Will anyone get the reference? I wonder)

(The joke is they are both named Mikhail. hahahaaaaaaaaAa)

(patrick voice) EVERYONE DIED.

I figured out how to make gradients the real way in my art thing. It's over for you all.

Aye aye aye, your eyes hypnotize 🎵

(here I was thinking I was clever for drawing Kitty with hypno-eye swirlies, but upon closer inspection on her model, she had them all along.)

Note: Crystal doesn't have an official birthday. I just chose from a random Virgo date. It happened to be Sept. 22. Yaaaaaaaaay.

I dread to imagine what's inside that box.

If the birthday girl says “play just dance” you play just dance.

I have been unable to get this comic out of my head ever since I listened to this remix of ring man’s theme

Love you Cossack bots

Drs. Light, Wily and Cossack after creating some of the most gayest looking robots known to mankind

[you-cant-fuck-megaman]

You perfectly explained Dr wily! That being said...

What do you think about skullman in this equation?

I always liked headcannoning that Dr Cossack made *Skull* man to partially get back at Wily. Like: I took your aesthetic, now you can't use *Skull* for a robotmaster theme without being redundant!

But it's kinda funny to think that Wily could have been a really horrible commissioner. Since he forced Cossack to build Skullman.

Thank you for reading this.

i'd believe it! it makes a lot of sense! wily's kind of an asshole like that.

for context for those who may not be in the know:

cossack was very much into making RMs for working with humanity. love and peace, funny mascot robots, and perhaps a bit of h*ndh*lding in between. thing is, he only made 6. maybe he was a bit behind on corporate mandates, he was still stuck on megaman 1 while everyone else had moved on to megaman X12 or something idk.

in communist russia, however, Wily beats you. both Ring Man and Skull Man only came about after Kalinka was kidnapped and Wily forced him to make more robots to razdavit that little blue dweeb. making robots specifically to fight and destroy went against everything that Cossack stood for, and so he went with the image of a skull to signify the death of an ideal and also a ring to signify i don't know wth the hell. maybe a hole because he got fucked. the ariga megamix manga expanded on this and made it so that Ring Man was designed to be a law enforcer robot, who used his rings as cuffs to lock people down, which is pretty cool, and made Skull Man the sole harbinger of ouch because there's not much else you can do with a skull motif except perhaps piracy and high-stakes dentistry.

but i like the idea that Wily's specifically meddling in Cossack's shit because he's that much of a goddamn egotist and Cossack lashing back by specifically targeting Wily's theme.

"zdravstvuyte, bastard. check it out. i'm working on that fighting robot you wanted. you know what would make it better? skulls." "you wouldn't." "what are you going to do, comrade? there's not many other skeleton themes to use. there's a few, though. i've got a few words that come to mind. chto eto za slovo, how do you say it in english..." "don't say it." "would a boner help? do you want to be the boner man? are you going to be the guy who makes a boner man? or are you going to grab someone else's boner man?" "god DAMN YOU." "are you going to cry? piss your pants, maybe? maybe srat and konchit?" "shut the fuck up. i hate you so goddamn much."

Mega Man Recut, Season 3: Diamond in the Rough, Part 1

Fake Man was taking the elevator up to the top floor of Citadel Headquarters. To avoid suspicion, he had switched from the guise of robo-officer Prime-Double-Zero to Chief Fictus—a stiff navy uniform covering his robo-officer-imposter body, an animatronic mask with a steel gray mustache concealing his mouthless robo-officer-imposter face. The head secretary had admitted him without much of a thought—after all, the chief of the California State Police had visited Citadel many times before.

The elevator opened up on the hundredth floor to a long, brightly-lit hallway. Fake Man marched down this hallway, ignoring the black bubble security cameras above which were tracking his every movement and the loud echoing of his own footfalls, until he reached a door. He knocked once, then waited for it to slide silently open.
