Three posts in one morning? Madness!

Back when I was a wee youngster of eleven years, I got myself my first Nintendo Entertainment System game of Megaman 2. I played through it many times over the years, and it brought me much enjoyment. At the very beginning, though, there was some frustration, as one boss character after another handed me my pre-teen ass. It wasnèt until I faced off against Metalman that I enjoyed any success.

Though Metalman enjoys the dubious honour of being the easiest boss in the game to beat, he also enjoys the honour of being the first boss character in any Nintendo game I ever beat, and so he holds a special place in my heart for that reason alone. Whatès more, I've always had a certain fondness for the visual of this robotic man with a circular saw blade mounted on his forehead chucking more circular saw blades around as a weapon while leaping around like a lunatic.

So when I was approached to do the voice acting for a Mugen adaptation of the character, I immediately jumped at it. I knew immediately how I would voice the character: "A lunatic, low-rent, hillbilly horror movie villain". I managed to nail the performance almost right away, and sent off the sound files to the creative team working on the character.

Now, finally, the character has been released, and it fills me with joy to be able to share the following:

Yee-haw. 

Also of note, I'm also performing the voice work for Crash Man, who you'll see leaping into battle from time to time here to aid his "brother". That character hasn't been released yet, but you can be sure I'll post a video of that one when it gets released; I've had a ball doing the voice work for him as well, and managed to get in on the creative process early enough to actually be able to suggest a lot of his mannerisms and moves and such. He's going to be a blast.
