An Easy Read


Rockman has had his likeliness appear practically everywhere. Toys, manga, animation and even pancakes. Who would have guessed Rock and co. starred in a toddler's picture book?

This adorable book was released in 1996, spanning twenty something pages. The story is simple: While out and about, Roll is attacked by PlantMan who brings her back to Dr. Wily. Upon hearing the news, Rockman and Rush set out to rescue Roll. Rockman fights PlantMan, Blues shows up, yada yada yada, you've heard this before.

The end.

Regardless of it's simple and predicable plot, I would have loved to chew on this book as a young lad.
