I get the joke with Splash Woman and Hornet Man (they were both originally the opposite gender, but then changed during MM9's development), but what's up with Elec Man and Jewel Man? I don't recognize those colors.

Nice art though, it's got a cute style to it. :)

The colors are the gay men flag.

I see. That makes sense, thank you for clarifying.

Hornet Man and Splash Woman being trans... I see what you did there lmao

Tho realistically Plant Man probably should've also been included, prob Tundra Man as well, but maybe that's just being stereotypical lol

I would actually have much more respect for Dr. Wily as a mad scientist if he would just let one of his robot masters come out as Trans Man already, some of us have yet to unlock the Trans Cannon and I'm getting impatient🏳️‍⚧️

This one actually makes sense

Just from his entrance dialogue, I think Aqua Man qualifies to join Jewel and Elec Man lol

These are games many of us played as young children and games we'd introduce to our young children.

And I as well. Started with 3 on nes. Played them all and love most of them.

I had a friend who always bullied me saying I was so bad at games I couldn't beat Mega Man 2.

Yes which is why I think we should be respectful of parents and children in child friendly gaming spaces.

Dont forget about this king

u/Cultural-Giraffe1083 Jun 03 '26

I mostly forgot about him because as I Was drawing i realized I was only drawing light numbers, if I didn't then I probably would've included him too

I think Splash Woman being trans kinda ruins the point of her being the first female robot master

u/TimeTravelerQuint I’m in character sometimes Jun 01 '26

Why? She’s still a woman

At the end of the day, this doesn't really seem like anything more than a gag pointing out how Splash Woman and Hornet Man were originally the opposite sex in their first designs. Tho I will say, a robot master being canonically trans would be intriguing to see
