Udon’s New Chun-Li Comic Gets Thighs Just Right
12:20AM Mike Fahey | Udon Entertainment more than makes up for Kristin Kreuk’s lack of thigh meat with their newly announced comic book miniseries Street Fighter Legends: Chun-Li. Kicking off in January, SFL: Chun-Li will explore our favourite female fighter’s earliest assignments with the Hong King police department, where she is partnered with a young woman named Po-Lin who has her own reasons for hating Shadaloo. The series will also offer some insight into the life of Chun-Li’s father, Dorai, as well as Dan’s dad, Go Hibiki. The press release also suggests that some Shadaloo bosses might make an appearance, and judging by the preview page filled with images of M. Bison, they could be right. Hit the jump for more details, and hit the gallery that shows the horrible, horrible things Chun-Li’s mighty, meaty thighs do to a police uniform. More »
Udon Street Fighter Comics Coming To DVD
4:30AM Mike Fahey | Those of you who missed Udon’s excellent Street Fighter series in comic book form have another chance to catch the series next February as Eagle One Media and Capcom team up to present a DVD version of the comic in animated form. Street Fighter: Round One – FIGHT!, due out February 9th, just in time for the release of Street Fighter: Legend of Chun-Li on February 27 – not only reprints issues 0-6 of the Udon series, it animates the comic, adding movement, music, special-effects, and even voice overs to the comic book dialogue If you ask me it’s a complete and utter bastardization of the comic book as an art form, but that’s just the sort of thing you’d expect from a big old comic book geek like myself.
