Here they come, rougher than the rest of them,
The best of them, tougher than leather.
Start of a new Sonic Universe arc, featuring Knuckles, Amy, Team Dark, and an eerily familiar new face.

It weird how Sega hasn't called the comic writers up and said "Hey we got a Sonic game in the works, would you like to help us write the story?"
>>
>>84467420

I'm pretty sure it's just Naugus.
>>
>>84467420
It's Naugus, man. It's not a real Enchilada.
>>
>>84467230
Because that would require basic competence. Also, SEGA seems like they're trying to be Disney, so they've forced this bland "safe" image onto Sonic, so he's not a dick anymore, which is fucking boring.

>>84467436
Even if they wanted to do that(a Japanese company would seriously rather die than ask for a foreigner's help), there's probably some retarded legal thing that prevents them from doing so.
>>
>>84467436

Because Sega of Japan hates America, doesn't even know this comic still exists, and certainly wants nothing to do with its creators.
>>
>>84465772
I feel like they made the design more obvious just to stop the potential lawsuit before it even begins.

Penders would only sue if they used any of HIS echidnas. Even he's not dumb enough to complain about a brand new one.

I hope.
>>
>>84467640
You realise that he sued Sega for having a race of evil Echidnas in Sonic Chronicles, right?
He's a nut.
>>
>>84466433
You're thinking of a different character. That was Thrash the Tasmanian Devil. This is Naugus using a disguise.

>>84466716
Nope. They've completely forgotten the old memories. Go reread issue 257. Even if they did remember, Knuckles wouldn't because he wasn't involved in any of that.

>>84467640
The echidnas that were created for Sonic Chronicles were what started that whole mess actually.

The King had to deal with the fact his actions, however indirectly, resulted in Eggman SHITSTOMPING the entire planet. That's a lot of guilt and regret to deal with.

So if he's a little bit of an ass here or there, you can't really blame him.

His gloves, boots and belt match the ones Naugus has in his new design plus the final page of the last issue was him in Hidden Palace plus he crystalized Omega. He's obviously not Thrash.

They can't use Dark Brotherhood at all due to mandates and Penders making hissy fits.

The comic writers might be tied up in a contract already with Archie. Even though they are actually working for Sega it could get weird.

But really it's more that writers are niche as hell and piss on each other's mediums. The game writers think comics are shit and can't facilitate action, and TV writers think they both suck.

Yeah the Batman Catwoman thing is cute in a way but there's a real sense of dependence with Shadow and while she might do the hero thing for Knuckles she seems to be do the more caring thing for shadow and more sincerely

It hurts they even got the fucking Squirrel Girl artist for their Jughead comic. I didn't care about Archie per se, but after this and the "hiatus" the Mega Man ones had, I'm actually mad at them.

Even before all this happened it was slow as fuck; how much am i gonna have to wait before I can read this? The newest Sonic Universe I have is Scourge Lockdown, and I got it one year ago. I mean, Scrambled is four years and a half old, and I don't think we're gonna get that one before 2017.

Shit man. Like, I actually really like this comic. Treasure Team Tango is great. The Chase was pure fun. Scrambled and that recent tournament arc look great. I am actually looking forward to holding these comics in my hands. I want to spend money on them. Why is it that hard for Archie to LET ME GIVE MONEY TO THEM?

No, he tried to sue Sega and EA but the judge threw it out because he waited too many years to sue them.

So, since Penders apparently owns the rights to the name "Max", do you guys think we'll ever see the King get a new first name, or did Penders claim the right to King Acorn having a name at all?

Or is this a "King Bradley" kind of situation where "King" really is his first name now?

The original Freedom Fighters have really gotten sidelined since this reboot.

>>84521379
Fans have been asking for the core characters to get more screen time since before I started reading, and that was when Knuckles turned out to be Enerjak. Hell, Sally and Rotor have still gotten plenty of attention. It's just Antoine and Bunnie who haven't gotten a lot of screentime, and there is literally not a single era in the comic where that's NOT true. The real change is that the comic isn't focusing so much on guest stars like the Chaotix, Regional Freedom Fighters, Hershey and Julie-Su and Monkey Khan and whoever else was the arc's big friend.

Can you really blame them? Sally is terrible, the most interesting thing that been done with her in the last ten years was shooting her in the face, and even that was contrived as fuck.

>>84520638
The worst thing about the Zeti they can't actually correct. They have no origins. No reason for being. No source of this robot control BS hax. And Sega will almost certainly forbid Archie from creating that. That's like one of their cardinal laws.

But yeah, at least they can create more nuance to their personality I guess.

We've only heard really strict mandates for Sonic's core cast. The Zeti are tertiary as all hell, they'll probably be fine. Not amazing, but fine. Even what you're complaining about there isn't really a problem of origin as much as a scattered design, which can be tightened up.
>>
>>84523084
"Sonic's core cast" means the game canon characters to me. But I guess we'll see if anything becomes of that.

>ven what you're complaining about there isn't really a problem of origin as much as a scattered design
Not really. I want plot justification for what they are, where they come from (a bit more specific than "Lost Hex"), and why they seem so supernatural in nature. That's not a typical angle for Sonic characters. An origin story would clear that up, hopefully.
>>
>>84523178
Sonic's core cast is Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Eggman.
>>
>>84523178
Supernatural's not that rare for Sonic, is it? I mean we have Lumine and Void, Erazr, Chaos/Dark Gaia, the Chaos Emeralds themselves. The comics go deeper into wizards, magic swords, possession, prophecies, all sorts of stuff. In that sort of setting, some onis don't stand out as being all that weird. I'd love for them to get a more focused story, but I don't think origins would make a difference at all.
>>
>>84523275
Then why couldn't they do anything with Eggman Nega? He sure as hell was never "core cast." My guess as they don't want to burn bridges, and there may be some remote chance they'd want to use the zeti again in games, and want to leave them a blank slate.

The fact that her fandom which is a carry over from SatAM and drama era of the comic lost their shit when she held hands with Khan, got shot, got robo'd, and put on some clothes show how serious a hostage situation she in.

Eggman Nega (and also Blaze) had conflicting origin stories. In Sonic Rush he's from Blaze's dimension. In Sonic Rivals he's from Silver's future. the Olympic games take a third route saying he's a time traveller who ALSO is a multiversal conquerer. This is apparently why there are strict limitations on his use. It may also because Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles aren't supposed to know he exists.
>>
>>84523898
No I know there were conflicting origins from Rush and Rivals, but that wasn't given as an explanation for the mandate and the mandate was that Nega could not appear in the comic AT ALL (a mandate that for some reason didn't apply to Blaze even slightly.) They never said why they couldn't use Nega, he was just in the No-No Pile alongside Neo Metal Sonic and Omega.
>>
>>84524026
Fucking obtuse corporate bullshit. It also kept Emerl out of the comic for a long time.
>>
>>84523678

Sally has a three-fold problem.

1. She's not as interesting or even as powerful as the other freedom fighters. She's supposed to be the "tactician", but we don't really see much of that. She ha arm-blades, but Antoine is way better at fighting than her.

2. Penders, Bollers, and Ian have tried everything in their power to solve the Sally problem. Penders may have foreseen some problems with Sally in the future, and wanted to kill her off. Bollers wanted to explore her monarchial side with the slap, and Ian's attempt to weaponize/roboticize/kill her again was retconned, and the arc was unresolved(but even while it was going on, Sally fans howled with indignation).


3. She was made to be Sonic's love interest or "equal", but the franchise has evolved. Sonic has female characters like Amy, Rouge, and Blaze he can have meaningful interactions with.

I remember when I was in high school, I stopped buying the main comic in favor of the Sonic X comic.
It starred the characters I actually cared about. Sonic, Tails, Amy, EGGMAN.
I pretended really really hard that it was basically Sonic Adventure the comic, but looking back there were some really retarded things that went on in the book because of the main writer Joe Edkin. The man new absolutely nothing about Sonic. Thought Sonic and Amy could fly. Thought Eggman in Sonic 1 was Professor Gerald. Couldn't get it through his head that there were only seven Chaos Emeralds. I liked that whenever Ian wrote the comic he put Chris way into the background and added a lot of fanservice.
The main comic has been fine since the reboot, but my ideal book would have been something closer to Sonic X, cut the fat. More emphasis on adventures though.

Robosally was like Iron Dominion. A good idea that dragged it's feet for too long. But the whole point was to make everything bad for Sonic and company for a while.

My only complaint about Mecha Sally is that Archie was too conservative with her redesign. Ben Bates had interesting ideas with how she would appear, like two-tone hair. If they incorporated elements like that into Sally's deroboticized appearance, it would have made the experience more meaningful, instead of coming off like a shopping trip at the mall.
>>
>>84524349
Adding to your list of things Joe Edkins did that was annoying as fuck.
His fucking reading a dictionary jokes every issue.
The amount of times he had the Master Emerald off of Angel Island without it falling.
Every issue he wrote was a Chris pity-party, just like the cartoon.
Shit was so annoying.
>>
>>84524357
Dragging feet on storylines was a problem that was getting much worse as the modern run went on, and it was clearly a result of taking the wrong thing from fan feedback. Fans loved the big epic stories and they loved things coming back after years of neglect, so the book intentionally set things up to abandon forever and saved big events for the 25s. The Unleashed saga is several years long, but it's actually done much better at this since it really only used the Shattered Planet as a backdrop for other arcs. If anything, the actual Unleashed part of the plot could stand to be less rushed.
>>
>>84511141

That's the thing about putting them into a comic though. You can actually define characteristics beyond the games characteristics. They can use their stereotypes as a base and actually DO something with them

So if such former core characters as Shadow and Rouge don't matter to Sega anymore, what are the odds Sally wouldn't just have the same fate, leaving Archie free to write them however again? That's the best of both worlds, frankly. Acknowledgement as a core character, AND freedom to be written as they desire.
