You go on Gamefaqs’ boards!
EW!

For real now: I think that image is actually from the web page for the recently revealed Valuable Edition for SFV:AE, which apparently is going to have a volume two of that Visionary Artbook that came with the collector’s edition of the vanilla version of the game.

Are there full scans of the first Visionary Book of SFV by the way? I could only find a few scattered pages on the internet.

One detail shown there

Super-hero Ryu is going to happen?
Kinda mediocre tbh, will like more alts focusing more on true nature/concept of the characters and less SFers cosplaying as xxx shit

PS: in both new artworks, Bengus representation of Neo Shadaloo Ed is fucking awesome, 3D modellers as usual ruin good stuff.

Looks like the new artbook for AE Collector’s Edition will have cards for characters like these

And yes that’s literally a shot of menat’s foot/sole from the bottom

Capcom knows its customers too well.

You need to PM that to @Trife88

It also show Menat standard model with some costume parts removed… 90% it’s nothing and just to show off the 3D model, but i will like if we get “code version” of standard costumes

There was a rumor about Rog get something similar

Kinda busy now, Just notice that FB groups got so many xkira defenders they are unknowing of the earlier fraud attempts.

Ryu was staged since before and it’s likely to happened since he is the poster child of SF and the events of Bisons defeat in A3 is questionable. So Capcom would create new path that would justify their build up anticipation to Ryu and Bison match thats is no other than SFV

I do not like it I prefer ot to be as combined efforts to beat Bison but it’s Capcom’s meh.

@bakfromon, here’s the Street Fighter Zero texts from several sources (mainly All About Street Fighter Zero Gamest Mook Vol. 16, Street Fighter 2 Himitsu Hyakka/Secret Encyclopedia, All About Capcom, SFZ Sketches Book and SF Eternal Challenger).
Starting today with the “intro” stuff and Ryu.

Next: Chun-Li

PS. @bakfromon I added the SF Eternal Challenge stuff. I forgot when I did the original post.

Thanks for the info. I can already say for sure people are going to start seeing the events of SF1 a little differently

Nicely done Lord Vega. I can’t wait to see the Chun-Li ones.

Didnt we have a street fighter vs darkstalkers comics?

so if that was possible, then it is possible to be in sfv too.

Wrong thread.

Wow thank you Lord Vega, Bakfromon and Midorgasm for really great stuff.

Oh? Oooh, hype building, imagination firing, mouth watering, arteries sparkling (wait, the last one may be a bit concerning).

I concur with that. Ryu coming soon.

You’re welcome, but I don’t want to know what sort of Norse mythology books you read. :tongue:

Well not really hype building, just a lot simpler. We sort of touched upon it way earlier in the thread.

Lol sorry about having to type the wrong word because of auto correct on mobile and didn’t notice it haha.

Trying to catch up, as of now the only best Bison battle IMHO as the top for me is this, It did justice to Bison being prideful warrior and strong in his very last with just bits of talk. While giving everyone a opportunity even him at the same time but he prevails against them even in loss. I always like how SNK did villains like Rugal pressing the switch and geese letting go of terry hand instead of long conversation.

Next is SFA3 Bison with Evil Ryu against Sgat, Sakura at Ken. I always wanted to see that in animation, it would be dramatic.

Then SF 2 Movie is the third and the Final is SF2V.

If were bringing SF animes without Bison and just as for boss battle I would include Rosanov vs Birdie, Ken and Chunli in the tunnel. Next to SFA3 battle. Then SF4 anime for Seth would my forth and last would be SFA generation Ryu vs Akuma.

Other anime FG base boss battle that made the boss badaas even in defeat is Fatal Fury for Krauser, then Jammin.

So I recently got the All about SNK book filled with just as much information as AAC.

I was just wondering, would it be cool if you guys @bakfromon @Miðgarðsorm could translate some bits from it? Mainly just a few bios for Rugal, Heidern, Geese, and some others. I remember talking to @YagamiFire about the accurate depiction of Heidern’s backstory and this book seems to clarify it. Aside from that, I just always thought SNK had a lot of cool story stuff we didn’t know about.

This would really be appreciated and answer a lot of questions I’ve had. Maybe @Shockdingo or @YagamiFire or any other fans of SNK lore could suggest something to scan as well.

Edit: @Phantom_Miria Gotcha, fam.

And don’t forget any juicy information about my girl Leona either!

Wow amazing stuff you have there we get to know more about Rugal. Great thanks.
