The comic debuted in 1993, where the ''Street Fighter'' storyline was nothing more than an ExcusePlot [[AllThereInTheManual tucked away in the instruction manual]] of ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII''. Despite this, Malibu chose not to use most of it and instead made their own story only keeping certain details. These changes included making Ryu and Chun-Li training partners and a romantic couple, having Ken retire from fighting, becoming Ryu's manager as well as a TV star and [[spoiler: getting killed and scalped in the second issue]]. Capcom themselves pulled the plug on the series soon after because of these changes.
