Metroid Database.com

We have been working round the clock the past week to get this update out for you! This is one MASSIVE update for manga and comics sections throughout the site. By far the BIGGEST thing on the list is the FULL-COLOR VERSION of the Metroid Zero Mission manga! That's right, folks, the Metroid Zero Mission manga that was originally translated by Mechadrake and again by Snoopycool has been compiled into full-color pages with a brand new translation from the Metroid Database! There was an incredible amount of labor and love involved in this and we're proud to announce what we believe to be THE DEFINITIVE version of the first two chapters of the Metroid Manga. You should expect new translations of the other chapters coming down the pipe over the next few months. Check it out without delay!

As if that wasn't all, we also added the legendary Metroid Prime 2 manga by Comic Bom Bom, which was floating around on a photo sharing site many years ago. The manga is currently incomplete at only 2 chapters, but we're starting a hunt to find the rest!

In addition, we'd like to announce a very special surprise! Infinity's End has discovered a never-before-seen doujinshi of Metroid Prime Hunters! The manga is called 'Pirates' and is exceptionally well-drawn in full-color! While doujin is usually associated with hentai and pornography, it is actually any unlicensed fan-based work. It's basically fan-fiction or fan-remixes, though in Japan they are usually sold! We don't know yet who the author is, but he (or she!) has done a fantastic job! There's a little bit of artistic nudity, but I want to stress that it is by no means pornographic. Check it out!

Finally, the folks over at the Captain N Network have graciously allowed us to mirror pages from the Captain N comics by Valiant! These are fun, cheesy little romps through the old days of late '80's Nintendo merchandising. We've included all the adventures Samus had in Videoland for you to look at! This comics collection has been added as a memorial to N-Finity (Webster Swenson), the original founder of the Captain N Network, who passed away in February 2007. "He found his way into Videoland."

But wait! There's more! We've got some fantastic wallpapers from the Official Metroid Prime 3 site in Japan! This is some really fantastic stuff and we've got the large size images available for download all the way at the bottom of the fanapps section! Take a look at these and spruce up your desktop with some Metroid lovin'!

*WHEW!* Well, this looks like that's all we have in the Santa Chozo bag for you today! Please stay tuned to this page or check out our RSS feed for when new updates show up!

Until next time...
