Good story, I really enjoy the on shots of Classic Sonic. It wouldn't retain my attention if was monthly but a few times a year makes it a pleasant read.
What I'd really like to see is a story of current age characters in the classic setting. Like what was Blaze like in her world during the classic era.

We've lost two swaths of characters.
We've lost several worlds.
We've lost any meaningful continuity beyond an extremely boring game from 2017 that can't even use its most advertised features (Infinite, the OC, the Phantom Ruby).
We've lost the ability to have well mapped-out storylines because IDW's creative process risks Sega flipping the table for no reason every step of the way.
We've lost characters with any development or even dimension to them.
We can't even call tarot cards "tarot cards" anymore!!!

It was during that period prior to SU#50: Metal Sonic was portrayed more as a line of robots, which would inevitably get destroyed. You have >The OG/Shard >Two from the Penders returns era >Ian's run had 5 or so models built that would usually get destroyed; The two exceptions being the one that would eventually become Captain Metal and the one that destroyed Shard.
Apparently, Sega eventually mandated that Metal Sonic had to be a single robot rather than a line of robots.

Shard's fate was up in the air after issue 50 according to the Bumblecast, though the reboot made it a moot point.
Because Metal Sonic is boring. Dedede or Bowser have great personalities. Eggman too, nobody cares when they lose all the time because they are fun even when losing.
Metal has nothing going for him other than his menacing design, and he’s not menacing when he eats shit in every appearance. He’s a generic mute that could be replaced with literally any other Eggman robot and not change the story at all. Orbot and Cubot bring more to a Sonic story than Metal does.
Sonic Heroes suggested that Metal is envious of Sonic, to the point that it briefly turned into a full-blown identity crisis. Sega could've done more with that, but they didn't.

Cancel Sonic already they have no writing left but reciting their profiles
His job was to be a rival to Sonic in Robotnik's service who only showed up to fight on rare occasions. Usually when we needed a midboss Eggman would fight Sonic himself or have his robotic minions pick up the slack. Now it feels like the Badniks and Egg Pawns showing up is a rarer occasion than Metallix.
Nobody even knew Amy was big on fortune-telling until the comics started dredging up that very obscure piece of info about her, and now they milk it all the time.
The difference is that we don't see Knuckles eating grapes all the time or Tails being scared by lightning. And also that Knuckles and Tails have things to do beyond those two fun facts (guarding the master emerald and working on his plane respectively) while Amy has nothing
Not really any different from Sonic's fear of water and other random shit they plastered on the wall papers. Hell makes more sense considering Sonic can bloody run on water.
Grow up and stop soiing out over babyshit furry cereal mascots, manbaby. Imagine yelling something like this in public and not bring utterly embarrased of yourself, no wonder you morons all turn out like Chris chan.
None of us write awful webcomics or eat our own shit.
Also most of the shit Chris-chan did was egged on by his stalkers. It's like when praying mantises bite off the heads of their mates only when being observed by others.
Ever since getting rid of her chasing sonic, they really been hanging on for dear life on her hobby since she got no other notable traits, huh? What a fricking joke.
She hoes crazy after SA1 homosexual, she literally says in the Jap script she'll double down to force him to like him, before that she just still idolizes him. The psycho arc is the retroactive response to Amy's personality, after being rejected by Sonic in the future.
>she literally says in the Jap script she'll double down to force him to like him
No she doesn’t lying moron. Making shit up now for a narrative. Post screenshot or gtfo amymoron
Amy was always crazy for Sonic in the sense that means "very enthusiastic." Like most girls who are boy crazy.

I mean if we're moving the goalposts then yeah. Amy's literal only canon appearance prior to adventure was CD. But I find it odd to think "she was a damsel once so she must be a damsel forever." For the same reason its dumb to think "knuckles was tricked once. So he should be tricked in every game from now on."
>this, the Tails comic and the other anniversary comic they did that had Mighty and Ray shows we could've had way better Sonic stuff than whatever the frick actual IDW Sonic is
pain
The diehards knew. Amy's fortune telling is like Knuckles love of grapes or Tails' fear of lightning.
I don’t get the recent nontraversy bout them showing her using her tarot. Girls into that shit literally do it all the time, and it was an aspect they always wanted to use but were literally censored from doing so cause 90s America would have lost their shit over “witchcraft” in kids games.
>I don’t get the recent nontraversy bout them showing her using her tarot
It's probably just people looking for some reason to justify a preexisting hatred of the character.
She was on Prison Island somehow before Tails picked her up. Girl was on a mission.
bean and bark are in nack's gang?
It’s a holdover from the Archie comics that they featured briefly in the 30th Anniversary special comics. They work well as a trio, and it’s nice to see Sega probably agrees.
What? You mean in sonic adventure 1 where Amy's entire story is about overcoming her fear and fighting her own battles? Shes been a damsel as many times as sonic has at this point.
Why do they keep pushing Amy to have a thing with birds as of late? It was just for adventure but now she needs a bird friend everytime? What the frick
Why do people keep shitposting that Amy was useless thanks to CD? Literally every appearance since she's had weapons from Hammers to a fricking buzzsaw that was going to be in R but scrapped for being "too violent".
She's not a fricking damsel, that only happened once just to have a reason for Sonic to stop Metal and Eggman.
She was given the toy hammer in Fighters specifically because she was a damsel and they didn’t wanna depict her punching because that would be too tough.
Same reason she needed a car in R. She’s too feminine to actually compete
blame sonic team for being sexist. they went well out of their way to not portray her as a physical equal to the male characters. she could have just been a sonic reskin
>blame sonic team for being sexist.
No, blame Yuji Naka. Every game post his involvement at SEGA has been pro Amy and pro Sonamy. Since Secret Rings to today. In the 90s Oshima wanted Sonic and Amy to get together when they get older, Naka was against it.
If you wanna have a reason for either hating or loving Sonic X era game, Naka is why, not SEGA.
It was a cute toy hammer that made a silly noise and couldn't even do lasting damage to that green eggman robot that was depicted as a broken bumbling idiot in SA1.
>It was a cute toy hammer that made a silly noise
Same in X and it destroyed gigaton mechs and airships
Kindly cope Sonic is not realistic in the slightest, stop taking it seriously. It's suppose to be fun.

And it still worked on every other robot she hit with it.
Serious question here. According to some sourceless statements I've seen online, Robotnik was referred to as Eggman in the Japanese dub of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog but I can't find a clip to prove it.
They're a lot like eragays, except where as classic and modern games actually have some major tone and style differences, comic publishergays try to act like their comics aren't just essentially the same shit under a different publisher
Isn’t it all literally the same people from the Post Reboot Archie stuff that got culled? I don’t get the publisher console warring, it makes even less sense than most Sonic tribalism.
6/10. I wanted to like it but it's just so toothless. The action is blah, Amy is really watered down to "cute girl who likes tarot cards". The dialogue is just sorta obnoxious and straightforward and very few of the gags land. This could've easily been a picture book for children.
better than the main comics, but i was really disappointed. i was hoping it would focus on metal and amy more equally, the dialogue was pretty bad and there was far too much of it as well.
Art: Pleasing palette, generally natural flow of the action, on-model. 9/10
Dialogue: Nothing overly wordy, nothing out of character. 8/10
Structure: I understood the need to have Metal realizing what's happening, but that could have been done on one page showing him at various locations where others have been freed. The story was straight-forward and simple, but I wouldn't call it offensive. 6/10.
Silent details: Way too much effort was put into describing the tarot cards' meanings just so it could end with Amy getting tons of compliments. However, there were plenty of unspoken examples that highlighted characters' personalities (which is again hurt by explaining those personalities to the Flicky). 2/10
Action: Didn't see Metal beat Sonic. 0/10.
Average rating: 5/10.
This was somehow more mid and forgettable than the tails and literal whos special.
At this point, I'm tired of classic shit. The novelty has worn off for years since 2011 and these comics do not help.
Can't wait for the Knuckles special, chaotix special, those bird homosexuals special, and the super kewl mighty and ray special!
sigh...
These classic nostalgia shit needs to end.
>This was somehow more mid and forgettable than the tails and literal whos special.
Quit being so sour. The specials are entertaining and there's a lot of charm put into them. The one thing I would agree on is that they should start making some new things in the classic universe.
The only thing i'll them is the art, but the novelty is seriously so fricking old at this point. Frick generations, man.

>should start making some new things in the classic universe.
Almost every zone they show off never existed in the games and I'm pissed it's not in Superstars. They look perfect but SEGA could never translate that into 3D with their hack talentless artists.
That's just Mushroom Hill without the mushrooms, besides Sonic already has plenty of forest levels. But yes, exactly what we need a forest level but orange.
ITT: Classicbabs proving once again how brain damaged and stupid they are
Sonic should remain 100% modern, Classic nostlagia ruined the series
Shut the frick up, b***h.
IDW Sonic is cringe filled with crying lesbians. I want to watch Sonic beat up bad guys, not some writer with green hair and pronouns to go full Steven Universe.
Depends on if you count new characters introduced in newer games like the Hard Boiled Heavies or Trip in the upcoming Superstars, but there’s the villains in Tails’ Skypatrol and Tails’ Adventure, arguably and arguably Honey the Cat. Anyone introduced in Adventure onward obviously are not counted, but nothing is stopping Sega from just making some “classic style” renditions of newer characters to stick in a game later down the line
Oh, also Tails Doll and Mecha Knuckles from Sonic R. They exist.
autism is directly correlated with transexualism. The part of autistic brains that didn't develop right is close to the part of the brain that's damaged in trans, which affects Sonicgays a lot because of their predisposition for being autistic and generally extremely unintelligent
>They have literally the highest amount of troons of any fanbase
I think Pokémon and Nintendo in general has them beat, especially for Animal Crossing and speedrun games like Mario 64 or Smash Bros
Yeah, man the current Modern run is so much better! The only issue is that every fifth or so issue stars these crappy characters like Sonic or Tails instead of who we all really want to see! More Tangle and Whisper!
At least every 10th issue those dumbos just sit around going "Where's Tangle and Whisper?" for the issue.
You seem to be getting Lanolin and Tangle mixed up. Lanolin doesn't cry (yet)
>someone who has spent entire life running from shapeshifter says someone is the shapeshifter, wants to ask them questions to make sure >fistfight them while screaming like a b***h how she's not allowed to ask anyone questions without begging you for your permission
Kys Lanolin belongs on a doner spike
It's member berry shit AND revisionist shit at the same time.
I understand using Classic Sonic to indicate a certain expectation of gameplay, but continuing to try and keep him separated instead of him just being the same character from a 90's perspective just feels fake and makes me think of Forces trying to backpedal on the idea of him literally just being modern Sonic in his younger years.
I hate nu-classic Sonic. He completely misses the point of the character. Sonic was designed to be cool, Generations fricked up by trying to make him cute and every next classic game doubled down on this shitty cuteness. Sonic isn’t Mario or Kirby, he was always meant to have an edge to him.
Because they're aimed at literal childen. You know, the target audience for the series. This is like asking why an episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse doesn't have banter or epic stakes.
Why does every single IDW Sonic comic have to keep reminding me of what we lost? Is it really so hard to write stories that don't highlight all our suffering, let alone draw attention to its endless slurry of mandates in THE FIRST FRICKING LINE?!?!?!
Bitterness, I guess? I know Archiegays especially are bitter since Post Genesis was doing good, but the writing was in the ceiling for a while, especially because it continued to keep the Freedom Fighters prevalent in a world where Sega was fine with them being in the dustbin. Sonic has a lot of stupid tribalism like this where they need to emphasize that their preferred take is the only one that should be allowed and is the most truthful to the character of a platformer mascot from the 90s. It’s all dumb.
It's not all Archie Sonicgays it's predominantly autistic seething Sallygays.
Reminder she canonically lost her virginity to Geoffrey pumping her guts.
What a prostitute. Glad she’s dead. All the other Freedom Fighters could come back and I wouldn’t mind, but all this b***h did was start shipping wars after it became obvious no one other than Ben Hurst liked writing her. She needs to stay dead.

Like moldy maggoty cheesy crunchy faeces blended into a smoothie and poured down your windpipe
So still better than Archieshit
I like how you (likely samegayging schizo) just came up Archie and the fans out of nowhere. Tells a lot about you.
Not surprising given how divided the Sonic fandom is. Though it's likely because some are bitter and like to start shit up, others just don't like it much.
go back to the sonic general if you want a safe space. The comic was shit and people are saying what they really think.
Your comic is ooc tumblrshit, too. Go back.
This is fact. No other comic has Tails doing a JFK on Eggman/Robotnik.
OH NO WHAT WILL WE DO WITHOUT SUPER IMPORTANT AND WORLDFAMOUS SONIC CHARACTER homosexual THE FROG
This dude was one of the better Freedom Fighters too, at least he had a function in being a comedic foil before he just kind of became boring sword guy #56
The Sword of Acorns was a thing that got tossed around a lot in those comics, so lots of characters got to be a sword guy for a bit, including Sonic. I know Elias had one or was depicted with one, but Elias was cool at least.
The sword itself wasn’t the issue, it’s the fact he kinda just became flat support outside his relationship with Bunnie when they decided to make him “useful.” It was a good idea, but the execution just made him blend in the background for a lot of the comic.
You're nitpicking, dude.
Yeah, Fleetway had some pretty bad points too.
I'd admit the 90s British references makes the comic age like fricking milk at times.
>You're nitpicking, dude.
Like that's not also 90% of "criticism" on Archie Sonic, everyone spamming the same shitty beating the dead horse screencaps to death.
Personally Archie Sonic not being canon makes me cry myself to sleep every night and cut myself until my parents have to burst in the room and stop me. I'm 40 years old.
I'm so glad archie sonic is barely known anymore. Even archie fanart is slowing down to a crawl and barely is being made. Kids today are spared of that shitheap.
Archietards ruin every thread they invade, this one is an example. They literally planned it out on their shitty "Sonic fancomic" general in revenge for people insulting archieshit. That is against the global rules and they should be banned for it.
I love how these three are based on old visual glitches, but still remixed into their own characters. Genuinely some of the best original comic characters.
Starline met his potential, shame about Surge and Kit no meeting theirs. Starline really was a compelling villain but those two aren't, if anything they're only an extension of Starline
This, Starline hypnotizes women for utilitarian purposes, but hypnotized men for pleasure.

Well at least now noone has to take my word for it. Sonic Manbabies are that autistic just of their own accord. All Sonicgays are literal gays btw.
What baggage? There would be none in this entirely new universe. Yeah, fans would talk about the old universe, but it wouldn't matter to telling IDW's story.
Ian did the exact thing with Thrash. Too bad he can't be used. Would be the perfect power-type/Knuckles hater to complete Surge and Kit's team.
Also, never thought of it that way, wouldn't have minded either.

I think it comes down to publisher copyrights as well. All the legacy characters that aren’t SoJ owned like the SatAM cast, the reimagined AOSTH characters post-genesis and original ones were probably registered primarily via Archie comics, and even if it’s the same team working on IDW, I don’t think their former employers will be too eager to relinquish more control, and SoJ doesn’t care either way to put in the resources to scoop those characters back up.

>What baggage?
I think Ian didn't want to bring in the echidna hate/Tasmanian Devil plotline to avoid comparisons to all the echidna lore in the old continuity. Though even in game continuity Thrash is completely right and both tribes of echidnas turned out to be evil shit stains.
Eggman is stated to have an IQ of 300, by speculating that a female version of him would have an IQ above average but still lower than 300, it is implied that females are inherently less intelligent.
But the bell curve suggests women have more average intelligence, not that they're less intelligent. There are way more genius men than genius women, but also way more moronic men than moronic women.

Nah man white women are shit.
Sonic comics peaked with Sonic Universe.
Far superior than IDW, STC and even mainline Archie >B-b-but Sally!... Diapers!
Barely even in it.
Game cast adventures, baby! It's what I want out of a Sonic comic
Yes. Since it was a new comic created after the contract, apparently SoJ had oversight over that whole SoA handled the mainline. I've also been told that communication between Archie/SoA and SoJ was abysmal at the time so that likely played into how they were ale to do certain things. That and the nature of the contract.
Then strip women of their rights and make them all sex slaves. Why even give them rights in the first place when they can't do anything as well as a white man?
Metal Sonic basically runs into the problem where the narrative treats him as threatening, but also he has to lose every time.
And since Sonic can't lose, and Metal is usually portrayed as a secondary antagonist, he ends up being a jobber. Even Eggman has had instances in SA2 and the Archie book where he was the protagonist and allowed to win, whereas the closest Metal gets to that is Sonic Rivals 2 where he teams up with Shadow.
>Apparently, Sega eventually mandated that Metal Sonic had to be a single robot rather than a line of robots.
Why tho? He doesn't speak or have a personality or anything in IDW, so it's not like he'll ever develop.
Probably to line up with the games. They did allude to his inferiority complex back in that Annual some time back and he did have the devotion to Eggman back in the first arc, but he's been pretty underutilized here.
I don’t get this particular strain of autism people have over antagonists losing, as if that’s being a jobber. This is media for kids primarily, of course the baddies are gonna look menacing and cool, but inevitably lose. Always have been, always will. I don’t ever see anyone get this upset and call Bowser or Dedede or Ridley so on jobbers even though they have about the same win to loss ratio, but still appreciate their designs/presentation regardless.
Because Metal Sonic is boring. Dedede or Bowser have great personalities. Eggman too, nobody cares when they lose all the time because they are fun even when losing.
Metal has nothing going for him other than his menacing design, and he’s not menacing when he eats shit in every appearance. He’s a generic mute that could be replaced with literally any other Eggman robot and not change the story at all. Orbot and Cubot bring more to a Sonic story than Metal does.
Has to be. The other reply I got was b***hing about how Metal Sonic is boring for… being a baddie robot. As if that’s not the inherent appeal, it’s just a cool design and sometimes they do cute little stories with him. I don’t need Sonic to be a measuring stick for how strong he is, and recurring villains allow for opportunity to develop them a little more like Metal’s gotten recently.
But it feels like Metallix is the only minion in Robotnik's army.
Though that's probably because he is. That's what shitty worldbuilding gets you. Give me back the Dark Legion.

Not a Britbong. I just think Metallix is easier to type than Metal Sonic. Plus it's a name that refers to that specific character rather than any of the other Sonic robots that got a "Metal Sonic" moniker, which includes Shard.
Until Sage, there weren't that many recurring enforcers on Eggman's side. Cubot and Orbot are there I guess but they're more assistants.
Metal himself hasn't been used properly in a mainline game since Heroes. Classic Metal was time displaced and Metal in Forces was an illusion (which IDW explained as Metal being reworked into Neo Metal).

I think Sonic 06 started the trend of Eggman using general robots and only piloting one specifically for the final boss. It's not a hard rule (Unleashed had one boss fight prior, Unwiished had him piloting the other Day bosses while it's two robots in the HD versions, He fights Classic Sonic in Forces), but it's either for variety's sake or to give him being a final boss more weight (despite the classic games already accomplishing that).

Ian writes him as a really hands-off villain ever since the Archie reboot. It was supposed to allow the Eggbosses time to shine but it’s carried over to IDW because Ian treats this series as a continuation of Archie despite this type of storytelling not being a good fit for the setting.

It is easily one of the worst comics I've read in a while.

Sonic comics like this is all gay shit for homosexuals and manchildren
The end.
>oh yeah i forgot this story needs an Eggman appearance
Good story, I really enjoy the on shots of Classic Sonic. It wouldn't retain my attention if was monthly but a few times a year makes it a pleasant read.
What I'd really like to see is a story of current age characters in the classic setting. Like what was Blaze like in her world during the classic era.
STOP.
MAKING.
REFERENCES!!!!
What reference is it even making there?
"You had one job"
literally wtf is that referencing?!
Ocean's Eleven
never heard of that movie in my life, and that phrase sounds like a generic thing anyone would say instead of anything specific
Watch it, it's good.
Sure, later I will.
It sounds like a generic thing anyone would say because everyone is quoting Ocean's Eleven, or quoting people who were quoting Ocean's Eleven.
I thought that's just a common turn of phrase.
It's a jokey sitcom line. And this comic has lost too much goodwill for me to accept it.
Oh frick off. You're just addicted to not having fun.
How can I have fun when every time I read this shit, I'm reminded of what we've lost?!
the only thing you "lost" was slop.
>curbstomped seething beta archie writers

>Somebody commissions artwork from him
>Acts like a b***h the entire way through
No anon. Penders is not based.
I'm sorry Based Penders was too cool to draw you Sonic inflating his bare feet with a bikepump, archiesonicbro
What did you lose?
My virginity, unlike you.
Everything
We've lost two swaths of characters.
We've lost several worlds.
We've lost any meaningful continuity beyond an extremely boring game from 2017 that can't even use its most advertised features (Infinite, the OC, the Phantom Ruby).
We've lost the ability to have well mapped-out storylines because IDW's creative process risks Sega flipping the table for no reason every step of the way.
We've lost characters with any development or even dimension to them.
We can't even call tarot cards "tarot cards" anymore!!!
all of that was garbage cuckold archieshit though we're better off without it
You never even read the Archie comics. Frick off
No anon is right, archieshit was total garbage and sonic is better now that godawful netorare shit is all noncanon and tossed in the trash
The characterizations have also taken a nosedive
Oh no. We lost Monkey Khan, Vertic-Al and Horizont-Al and Mina the Mongoose. The west has fallen.
We lost the Freedom Fighters. We lost Snively. We lost Nicole. We lost Max. We lost the Iron Dominion, lost Shard, lost Prince Elias, lost Geoffrey, lost Mogul, lost Naugus, lost Finitevus, lost Scourge, lost the Dark Legion. We've even lost Shadow of all characters.
>Freedom Fighters
>Scourge
Good.
All of those were dogshit.
And Shadow is still here.
>We lost the Freedom Fighters. We lost Snively. We lost Nicole. We lost Max. We lost the Iron Dominion, lost Shard, lost Prince Elias, lost Geoffrey, lost Mogul, lost Naugus, lost Finitevus, lost Scourge, lost the Dark Legion.
Say it with me now, and nothing of importance was lost.
The END would wipe and vores its cloaca with the Archie characters.
>Metal Sonic
>job
Was this intentional?
Probably. Metal used to job so much in Archie that Sega had to go up and tell them to knock it off.
Why does Ian do this? He keeps taking characters with respectable power and competence in the games and turns them into too dumb to live jobbers
It wasn't just Ian. Shadow fricked up a bunch of Metal Sonics in various Penders/Bollers stories.
Fusing might be the only hope for the upcoming crisis
Shadow didn't do anything there. They just got shut off.
by his chaos control beating them.
It was during that period prior to SU#50: Metal Sonic was portrayed more as a line of robots, which would inevitably get destroyed. You have
>The OG/Shard
>Two from the Penders returns era
>Ian's run had 5 or so models built that would usually get destroyed; The two exceptions being the one that would eventually become Captain Metal and the one that destroyed Shard.
Apparently, Sega eventually mandated that Metal Sonic had to be a single robot rather than a line of robots.
I miss Shard
>Apparently, Sega eventually mandated that Metal Sonic had to be a single robot rather than a line of robots.
Why tho? He doesn't speak or have a personality or anything in IDW, so it's not like he'll ever develop.
Because that’s the canon of the games. Simple as, and it’s been that way since way back in Heroes when he came back.
If I recall, its because for a while Archie made too many Metals and they all jobbed too easily. Sega told them to cut it out, limit it to one, and make him a threat again.
>Sega told them to cut it out, limit it to one, and make him a threat again.
Or at least the first two.
But that was stupid. Archie had their trend of making Metal Sonics disposable, you didn't need to force them to do what the games did. And you definitely didn't need to make Metallix himself rebuildable while Shard wasn't.
>, you didn't need to force them to do what the games did.
The games are what SEGA envisions and is real Sonic, if you don't like that you don't like real Sonic. Only a comic with stolen IP Sonic characters pasted on top.
>it's not the quality of the story that matters, but whether or not the corporation has stamped it
consoomer alert
But the quality of Archie Sonic was mostly bad.
Sega didn't enact their mandates because of quality. If they cared so much about their brand quality, they'd never have released Sonic 06 in the state it was in.
If you don't like a brand you don't like the brand. Simple as, butthole
You cannot claim to like X if X is just someone's headcanon of X and actively goes against X's actual identity. It's like saying you like playing Basketball when in reality you're watching someone play tennis and they are just calling it basket ball because they called the net a basket hitting a ball around.
Sega's whole contempt with Archie was them not doing what the games did.
>Archie had their trend of making Metal Sonics disposable
And it was a trend Sega themselves did not like.
>And you definitely didn't need to make Metallix himself rebuildable while Shard wasn't.
Shard's fate was up in the air after issue 50 according to the Bumblecast, though the reboot made it a moot point.
Sonic Heroes suggested that Metal is envious of Sonic, to the point that it briefly turned into a full-blown identity crisis. Sega could've done more with that, but they didn't.
I don't care how many excuses Potto makes. You do not kill off good characters so lame ones can take their place.
... are you the same guy who thinks he's making some salient point by calling Ian "Potto"?
he's autistic, just ignore him
Anon, have you seen this thread? If I'm to ignore any autist there's no one to reply to. Storytime threads used to at least have a guarantee of higher quality than average, now we don't even get that, clearly.
When? Because Metallix is still jobbing.

>Second panel behind dusty clouds
Vector and Honey cameo spotted. Also neat, a little rat critter.
Wait why did she stop Sonic from having a cool fight scene with Metal Sonic just to get chased by him and have Fang save her? That's kind of lame.
It's her comic so she gets to be the cool one.
And why couldn't we have seen Sonic losing?
Oh right, because it's a crime to show Sonic losing.

What's so wrong with "Sniper"?
I wish everyone at Sega was murdered.
I feel like this page bugs me. Lots and lots of dialogue, very samey pastel backgrounds and not a whole lot of variation in the posing or camera dynamics.it it feels like filler.
>WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS
Cancel Sonic already they have no writing left but reciting their profiles
Why can't we have the Hooligans in Modern?
Sega is still iffy about Classic and Modern continuities being in the same universe or not.
Because SEGA never ever wanted them. Heroes had their chance but Shadow mattered more
Get it? It's the thing she says in SA2!
Metal Sonic hates Strawberry.
That shouldn't be that funny.
Reference to their twitter maybe?
>I always knew Metal was Bad, but I never thought he would come this far.
Remember when Metal Sonic was cool and not some boring all-purpose heavy?
Metal Sonic has never been cool.
Before, his purpose was getting wrecked by Sonic. So nothing is different.
His job was to be a rival to Sonic in Robotnik's service who only showed up to fight on rare occasions. Usually when we needed a midboss Eggman would fight Sonic himself or have his robotic minions pick up the slack. Now it feels like the Badniks and Egg Pawns showing up is a rarer occasion than Metallix.
Nobody even knew Amy was big on fortune-telling until the comics started dredging up that very obscure piece of info about her, and now they milk it all the time.
The diehards knew. Amy's fortune telling is like Knuckles love of grapes or Tails' fear of lightning.
The difference is that we don't see Knuckles eating grapes all the time or Tails being scared by lightning. And also that Knuckles and Tails have things to do beyond those two fun facts (guarding the master emerald and working on his plane respectively) while Amy has nothing
Not really any different from Sonic's fear of water and other random shit they plastered on the wall papers. Hell makes more sense considering Sonic can bloody run on water.
Eh, it's fine for these Classic stories. It's only when she still does it in the Modern shit when it starts getting annoying.
Why does Sega want "tarot" censored?!
First fricking line of the comic makes me want to kill myself. That's how much I hate IDW Sonic.
Gay.

Ever since getting rid of her chasing sonic, they really been hanging on for dear life on her hobby since she got no other notable traits, huh? What a fricking joke.
I don't get why they can't just keep Classic Amy as Sonic crazy and just imply she got over it with time. Making the change retroactive feels fake.
Because SEGA is moronic.
She hoes crazy after SA1 homosexual, she literally says in the Jap script she'll double down to force him to like him, before that she just still idolizes him. The psycho arc is the retroactive response to Amy's personality, after being rejected by Sonic in the future.
>she literally says in the Jap script she'll double down to force him to like him
No she doesn’t lying moron. Making shit up now for a narrative. Post screenshot or gtfo amymoron
She literally latches on to Sonic and won't let go unless he uses force in CD.
She was never really Sonic crazy outside of battle. That perception of her is due to Sonic X flanderizing the frick out of her.
>She was never really Sonic crazy outside of battle
She was Sonic-crazy from the very beginning.
That's not crazy you psychopath, if you think a girl flirting with you is crazy then no wonder you're a fricking virgin incel.
Amy was always crazy for Sonic in the sense that means "very enthusiastic." Like most girls who are boy crazy.
Your reply to genuinely crazy in the other sense of the word. As in deranged, wild, and aggressive.
She tries to beat him into submission in several games and stalked him across countries. She's crazy.
In Battle and X you triple Black person. Not classic era Amy.
Classic Amy stalked him on his vacation in Sonic R.
>Classic Amy stalked him on his vacation in Sonic R.
>Source, my ass.
Source, the story of the game. Sonic and Tails go across seas for vacation and what does Amy do but continue to stalk him all the way there.

I guess 8 chaos emeralds is actually the real canon thanks to The Fighters.
One of those emeralds was a replica emerald made by the cloning ray, when you get cloned and have to fight your doppleganger
I mean if we're moving the goalposts then yeah. Amy's literal only canon appearance prior to adventure was CD. But I find it odd to think "she was a damsel once so she must be a damsel forever." For the same reason its dumb to think "knuckles was tricked once. So he should be tricked in every game from now on."
>this, the Tails comic and the other anniversary comic they did that had Mighty and Ray shows we could've had way better Sonic stuff than whatever the frick actual IDW Sonic is
pain
Why'd they make Amy a girlboss?
Remember when Amy was captured for most of Sonic CD? Sega sure don't.
>Amy having the bossy attitude she's had since Adventure makes her a girlboss all of a sudden
you're either a zoomer or a fake fan
Her being bossy in SA1 was her acting like a spoiled brat and trying to force Sonic to go on a date with her. That's not girlboss and you know it.
Both, probably.
I don’t get the recent nontraversy bout them showing her using her tarot. Girls into that shit literally do it all the time, and it was an aspect they always wanted to use but were literally censored from doing so cause 90s America would have lost their shit over “witchcraft” in kids games.
>I don’t get the recent nontraversy bout them showing her using her tarot
It's probably just people looking for some reason to justify a preexisting hatred of the character.
Amy broke into a federal supermax prison island to free Sonic in SA2.
I like how everyone conveniently forgets Tails helped free Sonic and did 99% of the work.
She was on Prison Island somehow before Tails picked her up. Girl was on a mission.
It’s a holdover from the Archie comics that they featured briefly in the 30th Anniversary special comics. They work well as a trio, and it’s nice to see Sega probably agrees.
Meant to reply to
She's not really a girl boss in this. She's just capable, she's still not beating Metal in a fair fight
What? You mean in sonic adventure 1 where Amy's entire story is about overcoming her fear and fighting her own battles? Shes been a damsel as many times as sonic has at this point.
>make Amy a girlboss?
After CD she always had shades of that mixed with being Sonic crazy.
I said LETTTT'SSSSSSS FRICKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Nobody has enthusiasm for this comics. Only fatalistic dread.
Why do they keep pushing Amy to have a thing with birds as of late? It was just for adventure but now she needs a bird friend everytime? What the frick
That is Ian's fault.
Boco on Death Watch Zone.
Why do people keep shitposting that Amy was useless thanks to CD? Literally every appearance since she's had weapons from Hammers to a fricking buzzsaw that was going to be in R but scrapped for being "too violent".
She's not a fricking damsel, that only happened once just to have a reason for Sonic to stop Metal and Eggman.
She was given the toy hammer in Fighters specifically because she was a damsel and they didn’t wanna depict her punching because that would be too tough.
Same reason she needed a car in R. She’s too feminine to actually compete
Stop being sexist homosexual.
blame sonic team for being sexist. they went well out of their way to not portray her as a physical equal to the male characters. she could have just been a sonic reskin
>blame sonic team for being sexist.
No, blame Yuji Naka. Every game post his involvement at SEGA has been pro Amy and pro Sonamy. Since Secret Rings to today. In the 90s Oshima wanted Sonic and Amy to get together when they get older, Naka was against it.
If you wanna have a reason for either hating or loving Sonic X era game, Naka is why, not SEGA.
It doesn't matter if it happened once Ian and fans will dig it up and make a whole moronic thing of it
no actually i definitely actually knew and cared about Notice the Character and i clap every time because i remembered and noticed them
It was a cute toy hammer that made a silly noise and couldn't even do lasting damage to that green eggman robot that was depicted as a broken bumbling idiot in SA1.
>It was a cute toy hammer that made a silly noise
Same in X and it destroyed gigaton mechs and airships
Kindly cope Sonic is not realistic in the slightest, stop taking it seriously. It's suppose to be fun.

Dilate.
the only times Amy ever "destroys" anything in X is when she's having a girly tantrum for comedic effect.
>Comedy = non sequitur
Just dilate, trannie. Your anime reaction images isn't going to make your headcanon any realer.
>Comedy = non sequitur
Correct, yes. Amy was never meant to be a serious opponent. She's comedic relief girly b***h on her period just like Chichi.
>Amy was never meant to be a serious opponent.
And she isn't here. Just competent, she's not helpless or defenseless or incapable. She's always contributed in every since game post CD.
She's not being written like she's Shadow or Silver.
Amy's not competent either. She is meant to be the damsel.

Dude I'm a Mariogay and I know Nintendo went full protective over Mario begining in the early 2010s, it's only now Nintendo got over their moronation and give us cool stuff like the Mario RPG remake and Thousand Year Door remake. Sega continues to be moronic and waters Sonic down to boring slop.
The new super mario wave resulted in some of the most soulless, sterile game to come out of a big franchise i have ever seen. Even the rpgs were affected
History is written by the winners.
Knuckles was meant to stay on his island, Shadow was meant to die, and Sonic was meant to sell Sega consoles. Get over it
>couldn't even do lasting damage to that green eggman robot that was depicted as a broken bumbling idiot in SA1.
And it still worked on every other robot she hit with it.
Serious question here. According to some sourceless statements I've seen online, Robotnik was referred to as Eggman in the Japanese dub of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog but I can't find a clip to prove it.
bruh
why wouldn't he be referred to as that in the japanese dub? That was his name in that region.
Yes, it would make sense but I still need a dub clip to confirm it.
Delete that shit on the right, or just color the hair yellow. Why draw Maria and not just call her Maria?
I don't even think there was a Japanese dub, Korean dub sure, I've seen the intro to that. Also lucky eggy there.
So he's named Eggman in Korea too?
Sonic boutta get EGGED
No, I mean there *was* a Korean dub, I don't know if they called him Eggman in that, I'd guess he was though?
Anyway, I look forward to IDW's 30th anniversary Katella special
Where she belongs 🙂
I forget how cute they make Bean look in these.

8/10. it was pretty cute and i liked the art.
cute and enjoyable/10
Sonic comic threads always attracts the worst breed of Sonic autists, publishergays
and that says alot because the average sonic autist can be unbearable with the constant flame wars
They're a lot like eragays, except where as classic and modern games actually have some major tone and style differences, comic publishergays try to act like their comics aren't just essentially the same shit under a different publisher
Isn’t it all literally the same people from the Post Reboot Archie stuff that got culled? I don’t get the publisher console warring, it makes even less sense than most Sonic tribalism.
Yup. Same people but less material to work with and more restrictions than ever.
You just don't get it, Anon. MY comic is completely diff-ACK!
I'm so mad this guy didnt draw more issues like this style for it.
He was good at drawing characters but not so good at drawing layouts/backgrounds so I can see why he didn't stick out for long
Shit.
Piss and Dogshit/10 just like all embarassing sonicslop
Better than the mainline. Short and simple continues to prove better than the lesbo OC hour.
Like moldy maggoty cheesy crunchy faeces blended into a smoothie and poured down your windpipe
So still better than Archieshit
I can't enjoy Sonic comics with the current status quo constantly triggering me.
6/10. I wanted to like it but it's just so toothless. The action is blah, Amy is really watered down to "cute girl who likes tarot cards". The dialogue is just sorta obnoxious and straightforward and very few of the gags land. This could've easily been a picture book for children.
0/10
fricking awful
5/10. Good art, weak action, Amy doesn't feel like a leader.
Prime example of SonicSLOP.
better than the main comics, but i was really disappointed. i was hoping it would focus on metal and amy more equally, the dialogue was pretty bad and there was far too much of it as well.
3/10 for a sonic comic. 1/10 if compared to a regular non-sonic comic.
9/10 cute story and I liked seeing Bark being a softie. Would've liked to see more from Metal but his portrayal was fine.
Unfortunately it's to be expected from Sonic comicgays, move along and don't stare too much.
Unremarkable kiddie story but has some cute moments. Better than the crying dykes, that's for sure.
I like Amy here way more when she’s a normal girl who happens to have a hammer instead of some freakish super strong woman. She’s more relatable.
Agreed.
Lacked Honey
Art: Pleasing palette, generally natural flow of the action, on-model. 9/10
Dialogue: Nothing overly wordy, nothing out of character. 8/10
Structure: I understood the need to have Metal realizing what's happening, but that could have been done on one page showing him at various locations where others have been freed. The story was straight-forward and simple, but I wouldn't call it offensive. 6/10.
Silent details: Way too much effort was put into describing the tarot cards' meanings just so it could end with Amy getting tons of compliments. However, there were plenty of unspoken examples that highlighted characters' personalities (which is again hurt by explaining those personalities to the Flicky). 2/10
Action: Didn't see Metal beat Sonic. 0/10.
Average rating: 5/10.

Why are there so many schizos here? It's fine
Very cute comic. Thank you for storytiming, OP, it’s much appreciated.
You're welcome.
This was somehow more mid and forgettable than the tails and literal whos special.
At this point, I'm tired of classic shit. The novelty has worn off for years since 2011 and these comics do not help.
Can't wait for the Knuckles special, chaotix special, those bird homosexuals special, and the super kewl mighty and ray special!
sigh...
These classic nostalgia shit needs to end.
Stay coping Unleashedgay.
I don't even like unleashed.
The only thing i'll them is the art, but the novelty is seriously so fricking old at this point. Frick generations, man.
>This was somehow more mid and forgettable than the tails and literal whos special.
Quit being so sour. The specials are entertaining and there's a lot of charm put into them. The one thing I would agree on is that they should start making some new things in the classic universe.
Oh yeah frickin loved "Tails cowers and begs the Flickies to beat his bad guys for him" - the special
Mid and forgettable just like this one was
>should start making some new things in the classic universe.
Almost every zone they show off never existed in the games and I'm pissed it's not in Superstars. They look perfect but SEGA could never translate that into 3D with their hack talentless artists.
Yeah the autumn zone was kino.
That's just Mushroom Hill without the mushrooms, besides Sonic already has plenty of forest levels. But yes, exactly what we need a forest level but orange.
Shut the frick up, b***h.
IDW Sonic is cringe filled with crying lesbians. I want to watch Sonic beat up bad guys, not some writer with green hair and pronouns to go full Steven Universe.
>IDW Sonic is cringe filled with crying lesbians
Sounds like archieshit
Makes sense, considering IDW is just Archie 2.0. Same writers and artists
How many classic characters are there? There's the roster of Fighters, Mighty, Ray, the Chaotix and Team Metal. Anyone else?
Depends on if you count new characters introduced in newer games like the Hard Boiled Heavies or Trip in the upcoming Superstars, but there’s the villains in Tails’ Skypatrol and Tails’ Adventure, arguably and arguably Honey the Cat. Anyone introduced in Adventure onward obviously are not counted, but nothing is stopping Sega from just making some “classic style” renditions of newer characters to stick in a game later down the line
Oh, also Tails Doll and Mecha Knuckles from Sonic R. They exist.
>Honey
>Tails Doll and Mecha Knuckles
I counted them in Team Metal and the Fighters roster
My bad. I think you got everyone noteworthy enough to be considered a Classic character, then.
I hate /sthg/ Black folk
autism is directly correlated with transexualism. The part of autistic brains that didn't develop right is close to the part of the brain that's damaged in trans, which affects Sonicgays a lot because of their predisposition for being autistic and generally extremely unintelligent
>insert amy about to get hogg'd.jpeg
>They have literally the highest amount of troons of any fanbase
I think Pokémon and Nintendo in general has them beat, especially for Animal Crossing and speedrun games like Mario 64 or Smash Bros
No way man Sonic has way higher amounts it's moronic
Troons practically dominate the Nintendo shit during GDQ
Literally every single individual on the Sonic general here on Cinemaphile is a man either trooning out or trying to be gay to fit in with eachother
Well, I get to save six bucks.
oh boy more gay sonicshit like usual
bring it back to the lesbians at least they were creative
The lesbians are boring inconsistently written crybabies
Classic characters are boring inconsistently written crybabies.
ITT: Classicbabs proving once again how brain damaged and stupid they are
Sonic should remain 100% modern, Classic nostlagia ruined the series
Yeah, man the current Modern run is so much better! The only issue is that every fifth or so issue stars these crappy characters like Sonic or Tails instead of who we all really want to see! More Tangle and Whisper!
At least every 10th issue those dumbos just sit around going "Where's Tangle and Whisper?" for the issue.
Man. This guy is really trying his hardest to troll this particular thread today.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
ARCHIEBABS?????
What's the matter, anon?
the virgin sonicslop
The Chad TamersKino
Sonic needs to be a lot cooler and edgier than this. I guess this one is an Amy comic, but Amy is a lame and girly character.
Why are Classic Sonic comics all so...artificial? Soulless? Forced? Tryhard? Soi?
Because they're Sonic comics.
They're artificial because it's Ian trying to reproduce classic cartoons and they're soi because it's IDW
Soul
Reminder that lanolin did nothing wrong in dealing with this wolf b***h.
>someone who has spent entire life running from shapeshifter says someone is the shapeshifter, wants to ask them questions to make sure
>fistfight them while screaming like a b***h how she's not allowed to ask anyone questions without begging you for your permission
Kys Lanolin belongs on a doner spike
She's Duo/Mimic's woman now
It's member berry shit AND revisionist shit at the same time.
I understand using Classic Sonic to indicate a certain expectation of gameplay, but continuing to try and keep him separated instead of him just being the same character from a 90's perspective just feels fake and makes me think of Forces trying to backpedal on the idea of him literally just being modern Sonic in his younger years.
I hate nu-classic Sonic. He completely misses the point of the character. Sonic was designed to be cool, Generations fricked up by trying to make him cute and every next classic game doubled down on this shitty cuteness. Sonic isn’t Mario or Kirby, he was always meant to have an edge to him.
According to a recent jap video, classic is supposed to be the cute and childish sonic now.
>Sonic was designed to be cool,
Coolness is just autism. People hate autistic people
Because they're aimed at literal childen. You know, the target audience for the series. This is like asking why an episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse doesn't have banter or epic stakes.
Amy's feet issue please.
>Yellow collar on amy
WRONG
What does this have to do with "nobody is excited for Sonic comics anymore"?
I love the seething. It's like Aiart threads but classic Sonic. Proof it's superior to luddite Modern shitnik comics.
Why does every single IDW Sonic comic have to keep reminding me of what we lost? Is it really so hard to write stories that don't highlight all our suffering, let alone draw attention to its endless slurry of mandates in THE FIRST FRICKING LINE?!?!?!
Is Classic Sonic also mandated to not lose ever?
Amy's tarot cards are supposed to come out is this special promoting them?
Probably a coincidence.
People are b***hing that Sonic keeps dodging bullets?
Why are Sonicgays, and especially Archie Sonicgays like this? They ruin every thread they try to force their shit in.
Why do gays like you always try to start wars for no reason.
Bitterness, I guess? I know Archiegays especially are bitter since Post Genesis was doing good, but the writing was in the ceiling for a while, especially because it continued to keep the Freedom Fighters prevalent in a world where Sega was fine with them being in the dustbin. Sonic has a lot of stupid tribalism like this where they need to emphasize that their preferred take is the only one that should be allowed and is the most truthful to the character of a platformer mascot from the 90s. It’s all dumb.
They're bitter that Conan and G.I. Joe surpassed them in issues.
Archie Sonic while fun at the time, its moments in the sun has passed.
Case in point:
It's not all Archie Sonicgays it's predominantly autistic seething Sallygays.
Reminder she canonically lost her virginity to Geoffrey pumping her guts.
His wife is dead
That's why he was fricking Sally on the reg bruh
That happened before his wife died
What a prostitute. Glad she’s dead. All the other Freedom Fighters could come back and I wouldn’t mind, but all this b***h did was start shipping wars after it became obvious no one other than Ben Hurst liked writing her. She needs to stay dead.
I like how you (likely samegayging schizo) just came up Archie and the fans out of nowhere. Tells a lot about you.
This is a Archie board, we all know.
We do?
What do you mean? The IDW Sonic comics just are not good.
Not surprising given how divided the Sonic fandom is. Though it's likely because some are bitter and like to start shit up, others just don't like it much.
The people shitting up the thread seem to hate Archie and Sonic in general though
shut the frick up, boco
I can't believe that the mandate states that Sonic can't die.
Why do you want this? Literally all Shonen protags don't die and the only ones that do have a undo button every arc.
You don't like Sonic.
Post Crackships
Wow, anon isn't even being subtle with his ploy to stir shit and bring up things out of nowhere. Lmao.
It's wild man. The comic was alright.
go back to the sonic general if you want a safe space. The comic was shit and people are saying what they really think.
Your comic is ooc tumblrshit, too. Go back.
Sadly it's something we're just gonna have to deal with for a while.
Feed me more seethe.

No. All three.

Even the ugly versions of Antoine seem so rapeable
Same. I'm a guy btw I'm attracted to shitty designs that don't belong in the series they're made.
Archie Sonic this, IDW Sonic that.
Yet Fleetway Sonic remains undefeated as the best Sonic comic.
Go back to Discord and leave all your seething and bragging there, paps.
This is fact. No other comic has Tails doing a JFK on Eggman/Robotnik.
This dude was one of the better Freedom Fighters too, at least he had a function in being a comedic foil before he just kind of became boring sword guy #56
Your diaper smells
>sword guy #56
Besides SatBK how many Sonic characters even have a sword?
The Sword of Acorns was a thing that got tossed around a lot in those comics, so lots of characters got to be a sword guy for a bit, including Sonic. I know Elias had one or was depicted with one, but Elias was cool at least.
The sword itself wasn’t the issue, it’s the fact he kinda just became flat support outside his relationship with Bunnie when they decided to make him “useful.” It was a good idea, but the execution just made him blend in the background for a lot of the comic.
You're so right dude!!! I loved it when Sonic fought some vegetables! Truly, STC is so peak!!!
You're nitpicking, dude.
Yeah, Fleetway had some pretty bad points too.
I'd admit the 90s British references makes the comic age like fricking milk at times.
>You're nitpicking, dude.
Like that's not also 90% of "criticism" on Archie Sonic, everyone spamming the same shitty beating the dead horse screencaps to death.
Until Robotnik was defeated and exiled, and then Fleetway was stuck spinning its wheels until its final arc based on Sonic Adventure.
Personally Archie Sonic not being canon makes me cry myself to sleep every night and cut myself until my parents have to burst in the room and stop me. I'm 40 years old.
I'm so glad archie sonic is barely known anymore. Even archie fanart is slowing down to a crawl and barely is being made. Kids today are spared of that shitheap.
what kind of manbaby seriously likes embarassing furry pretentious cuckold shit like Archie Sonic?
Archietards ruin every thread they invade, this one is an example. They literally planned it out on their shitty "Sonic fancomic" general in revenge for people insulting archieshit. That is against the global rules and they should be banned for it.
I'm not surprised in the slightest.
Jungle Big's counterpart is named "Hangry Cat"
Without fail, fleetway gays come into a thread to puff their chests out at Archie and IDW. You guys have some weird complex.
and here we have a typical 50-year old archiegay projecting because noone likes their cuckshit comics:
I love how these three are based on old visual glitches, but still remixed into their own characters. Genuinely some of the best original comic characters.
Starline met his potential, shame about Surge and Kit no meeting theirs. Starline really was a compelling villain but those two aren't, if anything they're only an extension of Starline
>Starline met his potential
What do you think Starline had Rouge do to him while she was dominated by his Hypno powers? I bet it was fricking filthy.
Starline's a flaming homosexual, now if I had Rouge under mind control on the other hand...
This, Starline hypnotizes women for utilitarian purposes, but hypnotized men for pleasure.
He's definitely a bara daddygay. You could trust him with Rouge more than with Vector or Big.
Correct, he wants to be dominated by big men, but if they’re not Eggman, he still wants to retain a sliver of control. What a prostitute, that platypus is with good taste
please go back to your sonic general if you wanna be a homosexual
No 🙂 Not like anyone is storytiming anything here at the moment.
>sonic manbabies itt literally trying to boast about the fact they roleplay as gay homosexuals
Well at least now noone has to take my word for it. Sonic Manbabies are that autistic just of their own accord. All Sonicgays are literal gays btw.
Starline lives for Eggdick
I don't know how you can say they're the best when at every turn they've fumbled them and made them complete jokes.
They've succeeded. You're just misinforming yourself.
I want Scourge and Finitevus back.
Satam continuity had to stop. The target audience was in their 40's.
Misinforming myself how? They genuinely hyped up surge while constantly making her fail and a joke. You can't really take her seriously after that.
>They made her hype and failed
You're not making any sense. Is the character hype or not?
They hyped her up in marketing to be this new big bad. All while humiliating her at every turn. So its a very shit attempt at hype.
Looks like someone needs to do the sally test.
Ian did the exact thing with Thrash. Too bad he can't be used. Would be the perfect power-type/Knuckles hater to complete Surge and Kit's team.
why didn't he appear after the reboot
Ian said he could've been but didn't want to dig up Thrash's baggage
What baggage? There would be none in this entirely new universe. Yeah, fans would talk about the old universe, but it wouldn't matter to telling IDW's story.
Also, never thought of it that way, wouldn't have minded either.
Man, Dulcy's design is different every time she's drawn.
I thought you were talking about the Post-Genesis reboot. Thrash can't be used on IDW for weird legal reasons just like how Evan can't use Gold.
Oh, I'm nta that asked the original question, I was just curious too. However, that legal stuff tends to come up a lot. For all Archie I can understand. But post Ken lawsuit an Reboot shouldn't have been a problem to pull from if you ask me. Here's to one day getting a full answer.
This franchise is plagued with legal issues. Tiara Boobowski can't be used for undisclosed legal reasons too.
I think it comes down to publisher copyrights as well. All the legacy characters that aren’t SoJ owned like the SatAM cast, the reimagined AOSTH characters post-genesis and original ones were probably registered primarily via Archie comics, and even if it’s the same team working on IDW, I don’t think their former employers will be too eager to relinquish more control, and SoJ doesn’t care either way to put in the resources to scoop those characters back up.
>What baggage?
I think Ian didn't want to bring in the echidna hate/Tasmanian Devil plotline to avoid comparisons to all the echidna lore in the old continuity. Though even in game continuity Thrash is completely right and both tribes of echidnas turned out to be evil shit stains.
Taint of Penders
But they're not original characters.

What would Female Eggman's IQ be? 150? 200?
i dont get it explain it
Eggman is stated to have an IQ of 300, by speculating that a female version of him would have an IQ above average but still lower than 300, it is implied that females are inherently less intelligent.
But the bell curve suggests women have more average intelligence, not that they're less intelligent. There are way more genius men than genius women, but also way more moronic men than moronic women.
All I know is that white women are moronic and responsible for ruining everything
Hm, no, white women are the third-smarted female race after israelites and Asians. But israeli women are partly responsible for ruining everything.
>Kathleen Kennedy
>Every woman at IDW right now
Nah man white women are shit.
You mean liberal women. That I could agree with.
I'm just gonna spend the next half hour listening to the "/b/ Has Changed" theme to suit my mood:
Tangle sure as hell isn't going to heaven.
If she accepts Jesus then yes she is.
homosexuals don't go to heaven.
Neither will sexists and racists
That's why you're suppose to not be a christcuck and just accept death is a black void of frozen time.
she converted and left behind her old lifestyle
>Nope. Going to hell. Gonna get poked by devil wolfgirls with big breasts and pitchforks; for eternity.
>Do not weep for me Argentinaaaaa~
I only just hate that "Your Sonic" has to be "THE Sonic"
If you fricked off and grew up no one would care and have to retroactively hate your Sonic.
Sonic comics peaked with Sonic Universe.
Far superior than IDW, STC and even mainline Archie
>B-b-but Sally!... Diapers!
Barely even in it.
Game cast adventures, baby! It's what I want out of a Sonic comic
Didn't SOJ also give a lot of oversight for Universe as well?
Yes. Since it was a new comic created after the contract, apparently SoJ had oversight over that whole SoA handled the mainline. I've also been told that communication between Archie/SoA and SoJ was abysmal at the time so that likely played into how they were ale to do certain things. That and the nature of the contract.
Metal Sonic still has the hardest design
Gay
Why haven't we rounded up and killed the entire female race?
Because I don't want to frick men, trannie.
Then strip women of their rights and make them all sex slaves. Why even give them rights in the first place when they can't do anything as well as a white man?
I'm tired of pretending that metal sonic is anything but a overrated loser.
Boo to you. He’s one of many best boys and a good big brother to Sage, Orbot and Cubot.
Sage, the whole sibling/son angle they're doing recently is pure shit.
Sage is cute though. She can be the eternally frustrated daughter who Eggman never listens to.
Yeah you would say that, you fricking pedo.
I’m looking forward to big brother Metal Sonic, and you can’t stop me.
He was cold in the OVA
Metal Sonic basically runs into the problem where the narrative treats him as threatening, but also he has to lose every time.
And since Sonic can't lose, and Metal is usually portrayed as a secondary antagonist, he ends up being a jobber. Even Eggman has had instances in SA2 and the Archie book where he was the protagonist and allowed to win, whereas the closest Metal gets to that is Sonic Rivals 2 where he teams up with Shadow.
Probably to line up with the games. They did allude to his inferiority complex back in that Annual some time back and he did have the devotion to Eggman back in the first arc, but he's been pretty underutilized here.
I do too anon.
Is Amy the Chichi or Bulma of Sonic?
>stop making metal sonic a jobber!
>makes him job all the time in the games
lol. metal deserves no respect.
I don’t get this particular strain of autism people have over antagonists losing, as if that’s being a jobber. This is media for kids primarily, of course the baddies are gonna look menacing and cool, but inevitably lose. Always have been, always will. I don’t ever see anyone get this upset and call Bowser or Dedede or Ridley so on jobbers even though they have about the same win to loss ratio, but still appreciate their designs/presentation regardless.
Because Metal Sonic is boring. Dedede or Bowser have great personalities. Eggman too, nobody cares when they lose all the time because they are fun even when losing.
Metal has nothing going for him other than his menacing design, and he’s not menacing when he eats shit in every appearance. He’s a generic mute that could be replaced with literally any other Eggman robot and not change the story at all. Orbot and Cubot bring more to a Sonic story than Metal does.
Perhaps the addition of Sage might give Metal something to do other than being a mute punching bag that looks cool.
We have a precedent.
I doubt it. If Shadow isn't even allowed to have friends they're not gonna give Metal any emotional depth.
I think it's part of the DBZ fan logic where characters who lose should cease existing so new ones can take their place?
Has to be. The other reply I got was b***hing about how Metal Sonic is boring for… being a baddie robot. As if that’s not the inherent appeal, it’s just a cool design and sometimes they do cute little stories with him. I don’t need Sonic to be a measuring stick for how strong he is, and recurring villains allow for opportunity to develop them a little more like Metal’s gotten recently.
But it feels like Metallix is the only minion in Robotnik's army.
Though that's probably because he is. That's what shitty worldbuilding gets you. Give me back the Dark Legion.
>Metallix
Britbong detected
>Dark Legion
Go wait for Lara-Su Chronicles and begone.
Not a Britbong. I just think Metallix is easier to type than Metal Sonic. Plus it's a name that refers to that specific character rather than any of the other Sonic robots that got a "Metal Sonic" moniker, which includes Shard.
>uses Britbong slang while not being one
Cringe
Until Sage, there weren't that many recurring enforcers on Eggman's side. Cubot and Orbot are there I guess but they're more assistants.
Metal himself hasn't been used properly in a mainline game since Heroes. Classic Metal was time displaced and Metal in Forces was an illusion (which IDW explained as Metal being reworked into Neo Metal).
Why isn't Robotnik taking people on himself as often these days? He's supposed to be his own heavy with the Egg-O-Matic.
I think Sonic 06 started the trend of Eggman using general robots and only piloting one specifically for the final boss. It's not a hard rule (Unleashed had one boss fight prior, Unwiished had him piloting the other Day bosses while it's two robots in the HD versions, He fights Classic Sonic in Forces), but it's either for variety's sake or to give him being a final boss more weight (despite the classic games already accomplishing that).
Sega can't stop going backwards.
Ian writes him as a really hands-off villain ever since the Archie reboot. It was supposed to allow the Eggbosses time to shine but it’s carried over to IDW because Ian treats this series as a continuation of Archie despite this type of storytelling not being a good fit for the setting.
How many times do I need to say "FIRE POTTO" before the universe corrects itself?
How is it the classic comics are always extremely solid? There hasn't been a single bad one. They look great, the characterization is actually fun, it's legit good shit.
Because they're character-focused and have to stick to a beginnings to end narrative that wraps up by the end of the issue.
they're all shit consoomer.
Because it focuses on the game characters and are genuinely light hearted. No crying lesbians or annoying OCs, or any teen drama.
He looks like he fricks lemurs
and converts them to Christianity
Metal's identity crisis shit from the ova and onward is cringe.
Why does /misc/ always talk and talk and talk about how they want to create a white male ethnostate, but never do anything to bring it about?
Lol
In the time it took you to type that up, you could've grabbed an Uzi and started thinning the nonwhite population.
Sorry I meant to say "lol this" but auto post was turned on
Basically I was agreeing with yoy.
What comics or videogames or anime should I read/play/watch if Sonic is refusing to be good?
My life is meaningless and there's nothing to keep me going. Someone please kill me so I can stop being miserable.
Try finding Jesus.
What's religion supposed to get me?
The truth, the way, and the life.
That was cute and not as shit as the Archie comics I had the misfortune of reading in the past. Should I give IDW Sonic a chance, bros?
@139669987
Stop baiting for (You)s. Frick off and never come back to Cinemaphile again.
Answer the question.
Frick off.
I'm waiting. Tell me if IDW Sonic is any good.
It's meandering pointless garbage that's only good for Metal Virus, Surge, some OCs and Scrapnik Island.
It's lousy.
>20-odd issues of a currently 60-issue comic wasted on the boring Zombot arc

>worst Shadow, portrayed as a reckless moron and total jobber
>camping arc is a waste of time
>Tangle and israeliteel are dull and hog way too much panel-time
>Whisper, Lanolin, and Belle are boring crybabies who hog way too much panel-time
>Starline and Surge are unmenacing posers
>all other non-Eggman villains (Clutch, Rough, Tumble, Mimic) are powerless Muggles who wouldn't last 5 seconds against Sonic
>endless buildup (Imposter Syndrome, Zombot crap) to dull anti-climaxes (Surge gets bucketed, Super Sonic cures Zombots with Chaos powers)
>has already added like ten OCs over the course of just sixty issues, thus crowding out the game cast even more
It is easily one of the worst comics I've read in a while.
*Tangle, Lanolin and israeliteel are dull, while Whisper and Belle are the crybabies, I mean.
It does seem pretty bad. Well at least the art looks good, right?
You seem to be getting Lanolin and Tangle mixed up. Lanolin doesn't cry (yet)
