As for personal wishes regarding portrayal? Well, basically have him be his smug, arrogant self like we'd expect him to be, only not to the point of being a psycho about it. Don't get me wrong, Bass in the Ariga mangas was cool, but mostly in those mangas. But there, he could be a straight-up monster who destroyed/blew up an amusement park and a town individually just to pick a fight with Mega Man. He had no regard for other people's safety and was willing to point his Buster at innocent civilians when he realized they were the reason why Mega Man wasn't fighting back during their first battle. That...wouldn't translate nearly as well to a Western comic like Archie, I think. Especially since unlike the comic, the mangas never established the Three Laws of Robotics, so Bass could get away with deliberately harming people like that.

Afterwards, it's pretty much always going to be him in that role. It allows him to be a more consistent and fleshed out antagonist, but it also means a bit less variety.

But it seems nothing really changed after that game so, maybe I'm looking too much into it.
