Who are the Leading Ladies of Mega Man?

#megaman #capcom #udonentertainment

As part of the Mega Man Timelines comics, we've been getting these variant covers, featuring some of the more prominent female characters from the various Mega Man series.  I have no idea whether these were decided by Keenbiscuit, Capcom, or Udon, but I can take a few guesses as to why they chose who they chose and I also have my own thoughts on how appropriate some of these picks are. I'm going to try and round up all the viable candidates, then look over which made the cut, and then offer my own insights, so if you ever wondered how many women the Mega Man franchise actually has, I think I've come up with a pretty good list. Well, as long as they have a name and unique character models. Mass produced units don't count.

For the other series, I largely used the Official Complete Works to double check myself.
