>>529256404fixing broken girls
I remembered IDW #79 came out and read it. As usual, it was pretty meh. But if I had to give it any one thing, it's that Whisper didn't hesitate and wasn't given any opportunity to hesitate. Silver literally holds Tangle back to prevent her from trying to talk Whisper down, and by all accounts she was going to blow the stupid squid's head off and be done with it - her first instinct is even to cheer to her dead squadmates that she finally avenged them by murdering their killer. Mimic suicide-bombing to try and take her down with him, in this context, comes across less as a writer cop-out to prevent the hero from having blood on their hands and more like the last ditch option of someone with no other cards to play. This is the only moment since her debut that she didn't feel too much like Crying Lesbian, and I appreciate that.
Of course, like all things IDW, it still flubs its own setpieces by having Tangle's "we aren't going to KILL Mimic, we're going to STOP Mimic!" thing amount to nothing with no reaction (though maybe it's for the best considering there's enough soap drama), the battle itself made Silver look a little weak, and the attempt to use wisps as a makeshift pride flag like they haven't learned their lesson from Sega slapping them from the dyke flag incident during issue #61.

>>529256504>>529256545Which of them dragged the other down more: Tangle or Whisper?
>>529256184Silver's worst enemies have consistently been people who thought they had his best interests in mind
>Nakamura letting 06 and Forces go forth with that they were >Capella thinking his voice acting was a good representation of the character >Iizuka not revising the script of Rivals to ensure his character doesn't come off as too obnoxious >Evan and Flynn sincerely thinking the character is meant to be "soft" I can't imagine if Silver were to handled by people who legitimately hated him if this is how he's treated by people who like him.

>>529256753>I can't imagine if Silver were to handled by people who legitimately hated himHe's handled by Ian most of the time.
>>529256545Tangle is insufferable here
>>529256401>>529256556>>529256694>>529256836I can't even tell what's happening, he's just dipped his ass in ink and dragged it across the pages
>>529256836The impotent raging will be continued later, according to Adam.
I like this stuff. Sheep's dumb as bricks.
>>529256919It's messy, yeah, but it's not hard to parse if you look at it for more than three seconds. The last one he did was way worse in terms of readability.
>>529256753>Nakamura letting 06 and ForcesNakamura is getting blamed for shit he did not even do, he got kicked out from head writer when he asked for more pay during the half development of 06 and he had no authority when it came to forces.
>>529256504Her writer
>>529256545This entire issue felt like you could hear the writers saying "Fuck it, let's kill this guy, I don't care how"
It feels anticlimactic at best, unearned at worst, and now we're short another comic villain/antagonist.
Remember how Starline's premature death kneecapped the comic? It's going to get worse.
>>529256401>>529256556>>529256694>>529256836>>529256987I cannot begin to read this chicken scratch, but ABT really likes drawing Lanolin creepy.
>>529257014His death wasn't premature. Ian just fumbled the actual death scene.
>>529256987>Expect me to apologizeOh no no no the poor artist is seething
>>529256535Based, he cares for her.
>>529257092ABT defintely sees her as the Frank Grimes of Sonic.
>>529256795Man that takes me back
>>529256401>>529256556>>529256694>>529256836>>529256987Can you understand why I'm not fond of ABT as a creative?
>>529257092He likes drawing all of the characters that way, and it's obnoxious
>>529256987It looks like some kind of Rorschach inkblot test. Like I'm supposed to look at it, see someone murdering someone with an axe and then be put on years and years of pills.
>>529256684In my opinion? Tangle. People only liked her at the time of debut because they think she "fits in" visually or wanted Sonic to fuck her, but she never really felt like it in either case.
Whisper doesn't fit much either, but at least she had a hook with the cold Sniper Wolf routine that was more visibly crippled by being attached to the hip with Tangle.
>>529257135He's written her as unhinged several times. Why would you assume he's treating her as being 100% correct when she's having an unprompted freak out where she breaks her own shit and rants to herself?
>>529257209>Can you understand why I'm not fond of ABT as a creative?Not really.
>>529257275>or wanted Sonic to fuck herI personally wanted to fuck her
>>529257121>His death wasn't prematureMaybe I would agree with you if Mimic and/or Clutch carried the ball after the fact.
>>529257159>ABT defintely sees her as the Frank Grimes of Sonic.
>>529257135What is she even seething about in those pages?
>>529257445>He's written her as unhinged several times. Why would you assume he's treating her as being 100% correct when she's having an unprompted freak out where she breaks her own shit and rants to herself?Because that's what ABT is feeling.
>>529257625>I reject what makes the most sense given what we've seen from the artist because it lets me fabricate drama about him.Ok dude.
>>529240878Barnes has seen the slander.
>>529241160Payback is an alternate future Fiona from a what if verse. She counts.
>>529256401>>529256556>>529256694>>529256836>>529256987Nobody is buying lanolin being the "secretly complex" character, Adam, just draw her sexily with big boobs
>>529257445>>529257798>>529257864Adam clearly got attached to the character he created and is salty that his peers are writing him different from how he envisions her
>>529256424>Fiona, Bunnie, Mighty and Ray have meals togetherInteresting
>>529257798Kek covering his ass won't ever fucking work, he was in /sthg/ we know him well.
>>529257612From her point of view, she told her new team mates about her insecurities, they promised to trust her as a leader, completely gave up on that immediately, and then started hiding more shit from her after she got pissed and yelled about it. And then they passive aggressively pressured her into apologizing for not trusting *them.*
She fucked up plenty, but Whisper and the others also fucked her over and she's seething about it. The fact that they couldn't be assed to even spell her name right on her little plaque for being second in command tipped her into a rage.
>>529257864I just wanted the Phantom Rider Eggman Alliance to be the point where Lanolin goes "fuck it, if everyone's breaking the law, so am I" and quit the Restoration to become the Punisher.
>>529258008>writing him different*her
>>529258008Evan wrote Lanolin pretty accurately in that Clean Sweepstakes Arc if her being an unhinged cunt is his intention.
>>529258138Yeah, no, it was good. Her "friends" didn't trust her for shit and she kept fucking up by trying to make things better.
And then in the final issue she randomly has clarity and Ian writes her giving a big apology that doesn't even make sense. It was weird.
>>529256994>he got kicked out from head writer when he asked for more pay during the half development of 06That was Yuji Naka.
I haven't touched the comics but is the mimic the last bad guy in the comic? is it gonna end soon or they are gonna introduce someone else new?
>>529258079>spell her name right on her little plaqueHer name gets fixed on the same plaque a couple panels after so that may just be a mistake.
>>529258051>>529258008>>529257864I dunno, maybe I'm stupid, but this reads way more like her freaking out in an unhealthy way over minor shit. She's bitching about people not talking to her when her last appearance was her being given the perfect chance to talk to people honestly, with this comic implying she just lied through her teeth the whole time.
>>529258469>is the mimic the last bad guy in the comic? They still have Clutch, Rough and Tumble
>is it gonna end soon IDW supposedly only has a year left to live which might be true with this time with Diamond going banckrupt
>or they are gonna introduce someone else new?Evan is going to introduce a Jester character in a few issues.
>>529258492I think he goofed on the last one. It's consistently Lanalin on the other panels and it's a big focal point in the first panel but a small scribble in the one where it's spelled right.
>>529258293>Frightened by The Wind.How would you react to CoroCoro Sonic? Would she break down into a Sticks-tier schizo?
>>529256753>legitimately hated himIan hated Silver so much he can't bear the idea of Silver being assertive or masculine ot whatever traits a cool characters should have
>>529256753Ian does not like Silver. He's part of the original 06 haters that thought Silver was an annoying dweeb with a whiny voice and never looked at the character beyond that.

>>529257159Really? Lanlan hahahahahaha that's a good joke
>>529258298It makes sense when you understand that Evan wrote the Sweepstakes arc and the Duo subplot and Ian wrote her apology.
For some goddamn reason, Ian and Evan can't seem to agree on characterization between each other. Same thing happened with Surge.
>>529256753Ian Flynn doesn't hate Silver?
>>529258686I see, that would make sense. Thanks Adam.
>>529258994Ian can't agree on characterization with anybody because he just wants to write his head canon and not what the characters are supposed to be.
>>529258942>Ian does not like Silver. He's part of the original 06 hatersHe doesn't like Shadow either. He grew up on Archie and SATAM and swears by it
>>529258942How the fuck did the come to the conclusion that Silver has "never been rude"?
I'm happy krack isn't here anymore
The only character Silver has gone on record stating he hates is Marine. He simply doesn't really care that much for Silver.
>>529259351Marine is an easy target since she's a minor character. Do you really think he could state he hates Shadow or Silver without backlash? Come on now.
>>529258994I thought they communicated with each other about this kind of stuff, but yeah. The final issue from Evan was really weird and a lot of what Ian's been writing this year feels like finger wagging and justifying stuff Evan wrote.
>>529259452>Do you really think he could state he hates Shadow or Silver without backlash? This was the late 2000s/early 2010s. Of course he could since everybody hated them back then.
>>529258994>>529259124I will give Ian some level of credit--Surge is actually a more entertaining character when written by him.
When written by Evan? Absolute joke, vulnerable emotional wreck, now she's a wannabe hero with a heart of gold. I'm not saying that transition can't be done but you can see the jarring shift of her personality between Ian and Evan
I'm sad that krack isn't here anymore
>>529259104If I was Adam I would sketch out way more of these and wouldn't be as openly salty when people disagree with me and would have ditched Drogune years ago.
I'd also be way worse at writing dialogue.
>>529259663Unironically the thread feels much better since she isn't constantly sperging about everything
>>529240519>>529240617>>529257817Brah, isn't Payback/Fiona in her 40s? Silver is only 14.
>>529259625I dunno, I like Evan's version way more. All of Ian's stories with her are fucking boring. Evan's version is a loser, but at least that's kind of endearing and she has some fun interactions.
>>529259546>I thought they communicated with each other about this kind of stuffObviously not as much as they want people to believe.
>>529259894I just resent that it's turning Surge into a dindu and poured all her previous villainy onto Kit.
>>529260081Nobody cares about Kit so they can scapegoat him and save Surge for later.
>>529258079I don't understand why they couldn't have just made a functional team of comic OCs, why'd they have to make the neo-diamond cutters so toxic?
Like this series has a whole game about the "superpower of teamwork", why'd they feel the need to deconstruct that?
>>529260081>>529260181I actually grown to like Kit and it would piss me off if that was the case.
He got a Con-exclusive keychain, so that's a good sign that he's not getting completely thrown under the bus
>>529260414>Like this series has a whole game about the "superpower of teamwork", why'd they feel the need to deconstruct that?Because they do not like this series for what it is. They like the character designs at best but they do not care about any actual themes Sonic presents and would rather disect and parody everything about it to leave a hollow shell for people to react to.
>>529260081I think that's just a framing thing and people being bad at reading stuff. Both versions are aligned in Kit being a controlling little shit who tries to keep her stuck with him. Ian gets stuck on the "opposite versions!" thing where I think Evan is going for "they're both extremely childish." Surge wants to look tough but constantly allows herself to be used and keeps acting like she has no agency on her life when she absolutely does, even has meltdowns about it. Kit is constantly overthinking everything and creating grudges and acts like a bitch whenever things aren't exactly how he wants them. These are both really common behavioral patterns for maladjusted girls and boys.
I just think they need to have a story within the next few appearances that makes it clear that for all the scheming he does, Kit only has "control" over Surge because she doesn't want agency in her life. He's not as smart as he thinks he is. It only works because she doesn't try. That would help people understand she's not innocent.
>>529260414I think everything about how Whisper and Tangle have been handled is shit, but Lanolin serves a really good purpose in having a character who is completely mentally at odds with the other characters. It's good for both helping kids understand that overcoming differences isn't easy and to facilitate some intercharacter drama without going full soap opera.
The problem is they've handled her horribly in the actual books. You need to read Adam's comics to get what they're angling at. The subplot is just utterly flubbed.
>>529260601Congratulations, you've put more thought into these characters than the writers ever will
>>529259103Little man got his ass raped and left twitter while getting demoted from head writer position, well deserved
>>529260932No, I think that's what most of them are going for. I dunno about Ian, but it definitely reads like this with Evan. She might completely fail on executing it, but I think this is what they're trying to convey.
>>529260951Evan is handling the art of Sonic and she's still writing the comics so Silver isn't safe yet
>>529261047Considering how they completely dropped the ball with the Lanolin thing and brushed it under the rug, I really can't give either of these gaijin fucks the benefit of the doubt anymore.
>>529261115Silver is never safe, from anyone after 06

>>529261438Considering the Lanolin stuff in the Riders arc was perfect until it suddenly wasn't at the very end when doing a handoff to another writer, I can give Evan the benefit of the doubt. Especially because Ian's written like four "uhm, no, Evan is wrong actually" stories this year alone. If she totally drops it again mid-arc, no switch off? Yeah, nevermind.
>>529261551This is bullying.
>>529261741It's Ken Penders and Karl Bollers all over again.
>>529261438I don't trust Ian with this stuff.
I don't trust Evan to pull it off correctly, but I think she gets the characters.
>>529261115She said he was so fucking faulty after she directed him, we still yet to see how she writes him from there.

This almost looks good, but the spindash, roll, and spin attack invalidates 99% of her unique kit. It's like instead of doing a real Advance Amy, they made a Sonic with all of Advance Amy's moves and gave it an Amy skin. In practice that just invalidates the whole point of the playstyle.

Okay, so. Let's talk, for a moment, about the demonstrable fact that Ian Flynn is not a world-builder. He is a plot-constructor, and these two things are not, in fact, the same.
Now, the popular narrative among his defenders is that he is the great architect of the modern Sonic lore. But this is patently, provably false. Let's look at the facts. The fact of the matter is, Ian Flynn is fundamentally uninterested in any world-building that doesn't serve as a setup for some grandiose, future-altering reveal. He has no time for texture, only for plot mechanics.
Let's take a very simple example. The stone heads. You know the ones. The ones with the vaguely human faces that shoot arrows at you. We see them on Angel Island. We also see them in Sylvania Castle. Now, a writer who is actually interested in *building a world* would see this repetition across two geographically and historically distinct locations and his intellectual curiosity would be piqued. Who built these? Why are they here? Is there a common ancient civilization that predates both the Echidnas and whatever kingdom Sylvania belonged to? This is basic, foundational world-building. It's a question begging to be answered.
But Flynn will never, ever answer this. And let's be intellectually honest about why. It's not because of some arcane SEGA mandate. It's because the answer, whatever it might be, is irrelevant to his "Grand purpose." Answering it doesn't introduce a new villain for a four-issue arc. It doesn't give Surge a new trauma to angst over. It doesn't lead to a shocking character betrayal. Therefore, in the mind of a writer like Flynn, it is pointless. It is flavor, and he is only interested in the main course of his pre-planned, by-the-numbers narrative.
Shadouge fags act like psychopaths.
>>529271972Not reading all of that, but in general it's best to develop a small team who can all work on what they do best. If you give one creative too much power on anything the work always suffers for it. Like george getting full control in the prequels, instead of having a team to reign him in during the OT.

>>529271972The truth is if you're not having fun with your frachise and just wait for money to flow in your pockets, someone else will have fun with it and "ruin" everything.
Sega does not provide anything because sonic is just for money (besides stupid mandates), it happens to be loved because they got a good formula and design at first, yet they delocalize to third parties for all the content so whatever autist touches sonic he/she is going to imprint their bullshit.

>>529271972I hate Ian as much as the next guy, but nothing you said is actually bad. World-building for its own sake can be viewed as pointless filler and as a crutch for writers who can't create interesting stories.
The best use of world-building would be to make it clear that the world is much bigger than the main cast, and to set up circumstances for the main cast to deal with.
World-building doesn't work in Sonic, though. Cause if we go into some history or backstory, windfags will screech "WTF, WHERE IS SONIC?!!". Sonic's Gary Stu nature makes it so he is not part of the world, he IS the world. As in, any and all important events happen because of him, but no events affect him directly. No one can be as powerful or more powerful than him, have as much or more impact in the world as him, or be as famous or more famous than him.
And Ian loves Windnic, so of course he'd make it so there is 0 world-building in any of his comics. The world isn't the world, it's Sonic's world, his playground.

>>529276098Correct. Shadow is the only character with any significant direction control and the comics hate him for it.
I was really kind of hoping to hear Lavi's comments on the newest issue but the comic book has gotten so bad that he doesn't even want to review it or the comic altogether anymore because he legitimately thinks at this point giving it any kind of critical thought or reveal is giving it more credit than it's worth.

also, I know lanolin's official characterization is pretty annoying and not great, I agree, but ABT's idea for her is pretty shit too and would be worse as it would be just another thing like the sonic no kill thihng where they try and poke a hole in a fundamental aspect of the Sonic franchise that you can't really get any good payoff on since SEGA won't allow them to play around with it in any way so it just sucks, plus it's just way out of tone with literally everything else IDW

He actually makes a lot of good points but he harps on them like an autist way too much instead of just realizing it's better to just walk away. Looks like he's finally walking away though because the last issue was handled so poorly that he had written a whole 3 page essay about it before realizing that none of it was even worth putting out on the internet because it's become extremely clear to him that neither of the writers are actually trying to write an action comic or even a Sonic comic anymore. This should have been obvious to him years ago but hey better later than never. He also made AWF incoherently rage for a few months because he got Krazyelf to draw his comic.

But also ABT's Lanolin is braindead, because when it comes to killing and Sonic's morality, Lanolin had a chance to hurt Eggman during Urban Warfere and she didn't do it. She doesn't have a right to criticize Sonic if she herself doesn't want to do it

She totally is willing to kill him, has arguably the most bloodlust for him in the whole series (only rivaled by Zavok) and was right there too.
>>529278254Would be worth it by all accounts. Save the world and get punished by Sonic for being a bad person tm or let it continue suffering in perpetuity, what a choice.

The Adventure ports are beyond fucked in vanilla form, but if that bothers you, the fanmods take care of virtually everything. A new version worth buying would have to be done from the ground up.

>>529279528Tbh I agree. Remakes are becoming too common place in the industry now. It’s like these companies are afraid of moving forwards. They just wanna keep looking back to the past, cashing in on people’s nostalgia. For sonic, we’ve been getting nostalgic retreads for the past 15 years. Some of them were great, but it’s time we fully move forwards. I want new level themes, new worlds, new stories. I don’t want this series to just keep relying on the past. I think an adventure remastered collection would honestly be enough.

>>529281816Yes, I'm sure spinning through space and looping 'til you're dizzy are also integral parts of the Sonic 1 lore. Oh wait, those are also gameplay elements being referenced in the story section!
>>529281691Sonic being a hero, means he will have to go through some version of the heroes journey.
He will have allies, rivals and mentors to help him defeating the tirant.
>>529282032So Sonic doesn't have super speed without the power up? Do you see the word games you're playing here? Also, what power up gives him his blue spines?
Pay attention people: This is why Amerimutt garbage is to be ignored. Looking at you IDW.
>>529282140Which one is Toyoda, what did he do?
>>529282396Not in-game. He gets most of his speed from rolling.
>>529282036Cream is the immaculate conception. Her being able to fly with her ears is the rabbit's equivalent to walking on water.
>>529282396Would you be confused if a manuals said Mario had a mustache and fire flowers? It's the same as saying Sonic has blue quills and power sneakers.
>>529282396I always interpreted it as Sonic would burn his feet if he were to run without his power sneakers.
>>529281816Are you by any chance the same person who spread the "Mario kills Toads" theory?
>>529282585>He gets most of his speed from rolling.I have a feeling the redditspacer didn't even play a version of Sonic 1 without the Spin Dash.
>>529282638>Echidna Hyperborea>Literally called the lost tribe
>>529282638Echidnas in sonic are at least consistent in that they all seem to be able to glide. Or at least the only other one we see in actual gameplay (tikal in sa2 battle mode) can.
>>529282292I always got the impression he was a "cool-headed" Blaze fan, but he just made this tweet.
>>529282852That's not reddit spacing, retard. You're trying way too hard.
>didn't even play a version of Sonic 1 without the Spin Dash.Rolling =/= spindashing, retard. You get the most speed when you roll intelligently.
>>529280723I think an official remaster collection from Sega would be bad because the current Steam versions of the Adventure games, that have years worth of fan mod support geared to them, would be delisted as a result and we would end up with a GTA 3 Definitive Edition situation where years of fan mod support would be lost
I think what's best is if Sega keeps the current versions they have available and more importantly affordable, the fans have already more or less "remastered" them better than Sega probably could
>Sonic is supposed to be short tempered
>The only game that illustrates this at all is Sonic Adventure 2
>The only animation that features this is the OVA
>All japanese Sonic media make him laid back to the point that he is nearly untrollable
>Western Sonic media that give him any other temper also discard most of his other important character traits
>>529282980But he made picrel. This gets Blaze enough doesn't it?
>>529282980But she is usually cool, isn't she? She's a burning flame inside but she's usually got this cool self-mastery thing going on. Sometimes she becomes more ferocious or more shy but she is usually cool, I think.
>>529282824That's how the early lore interpreted it. Even the OVA referenced it.
>>529283169Make a list of all his character traits, anon. For future reference
>>529283169Knuckles can probably troll Sonic to hell and back
>>529283169The short temper thing is really supposed to mean impatient

>>529283169>>The only game that illustrates this at all is Sonic Adventure 2Sonic 1 - 3K, idle animations. But you are right in your greater point, they don't make Sonic impatient and prickly enough anymore. Forces and Frontiers has him act like he's practically a different person.
>>529283430OVA still the best adaptation

>>529283318This is more of what I would expect from Blaze, but this isn't cool-headed at all.

>>529283140 Tbf they could handle it like sonic generations where the Original is still available to buy via the collection pack. There’s always a chance they could just Straight up delist them though. I guess I was more thinking of having them on modern consoles like the switch 2, ps5, and Xbox. But yeah, I wouldn’t want the current versions on steam getting delisted because of sega’s dumbass greed.
>>529283430>more younger fans know about the sneezing than the shoesThanks, YouTube! Way past cool.
>>529257612My guess is this takes place right after Issue 75. Despite Lanolin apologizing to them directly, she has a mental snap behind closed doors. I don't blame her, she did nothing fucking wrong and they strung her up for nothing.
>>529281980You'll inherit Fang's tax fraud debts when he dies.
>>529284278It's like the 06 allscript says.
>>529285367Lanolin got the short end of the stick as an apology to fans, because she was pretty hated during that arc. It's why she is most likely going back to background character status.
Japanese Sonic is easy to write. He doesn't really use a lot of specific phrases or slang. When he is feeling good he will say "I feel good'". You never have to worry about adding some quirk to it.

Speaking of it selling poorly, do we have tangible sales data on IDW Sonic? Not talking about the stock but actual sales, I'm not very knowledgeable on comic sales so I wouldn't know where to get those.

How to write Sonic Cheat Codes:
>Don't make him talk much. Sonic in the games doesn't have that many lines.
>When he does talk, make him say things literally anyone can say. Almost all of Sonic's japanese dialogue is completely devoid of exaggeration. "That's a nice view" "That water looks dangerous"
>NO contemporary slang. Ever. Idioms are fine. "Dude" "Cool" are fine
>If you want to emulate the dub of the adventure games, the occasional 90s slang term is acceptable
>Keep the jokes to a minimum. Sonic isn't even considered funny in-universe when he starts regularly making jokes in the 2010s.
>Do not overuse "wind". Sonic is the wind. He doesn't say "I'm the wind". Sonic comparing himself to the wind needs to be prompted by another character
>Do not take "Short tempered" literally. He will occasionally show inconsequential anger at another character. That is all. The longest Sonic has ever been stressed in an actual Sonic game is Sonic Lost World when Tails was captured
>Do not fall for the Sonic X meme. There's only a small handful of times where Sonic is actually sleeping in public in the games. The games do not actually explore how often this is.
>NO. SHIPPING
>The ladies man comment will manifest in his body language. Never portray Sonic actively pursuing a relationship
>Sonic is not above insults, lecturing, complaining, chastising, or judging in general. But it's rare. Notable examples happen in games like Sonic Battle and Forces
>Don't try and balance his "Gary Stu" ness. It's pointless if you actually want to authentically capture how Sonic Team does it.
>Discard every Sonic from western media. Every single one.
>Do not assume that because something is japanese, that it represents Sonic's personality in the games. Sonic isn't afraid of water like in Sonic X and he has never been shown to intentionally manipulate Amy for any reason.

>>529290926The games don't do amazingly either. Even though Crash 4 flopped, Sonic's games released since each sold less than it.
>>529290817It only started doing those sales since the end of 2024.
Sonic was not notable to enter the top 200 on a regular basis before then.
>>529291170Sonic games at least hit sales charts
>>529286041That's a shoddy translation, here's a better one:
>■BLAZE (Blaze)■>She manipulates and protects the ‘Sol Emeralds’ (tentative name - items that are counterparts to the Chaos Emeralds). In an alternate world, she takes on the combined roles of Sonic and Knuckles. Usually, she is calm and composed, but it feels like she suppresses her hidden emotions with her rationality. When she burns with anger and her restraint is broken, she becomes quite terrifying.>She is a Tsundere type. She is extremely shy and tends to create a barrier between herself and others at first.>(However, once that barrier is overcome, she becomes excessively intimate)>Normally, she wears a cloak. It serves as a symbol of self-restraint, reminding her not to recklessly use her fire-controlling abilities, which caused her to be bullied in her childhood. However, when something happens, she throws off her cloak and reveals a surprisingly active side.>Underneath the cloak, she hides a costume reminiscent of the Takarazuka Revue! Apparently, she is self-conscious about her lack of a chest... (She becomes extremely angry when this is pointed out).>14 years old.
>>529291170DC X Sonic is actually selling REALLY well

>IDW Sonic sells pretty okay

>>529291002This is in character for Sonic
>>529291742DC X Sonic is an actual success. IDW sells very mediocre. There is a lot of slop that sells better than it like Thundercats and Space Ghost.
>>529291490Chocolate milk
Look, let's cut the cope. You cannot in good faith call IDW Sonic a "massive success." The entire argument is built on motivated reasoning.
First, context matters. The comic industry is a dying market. Bragging about cracking the top 200 here is like being the tallest kid in kindergarten. The bar is on the floor.
Second, it's a success for IDW. That's the key part everyone ignores. They're a publisher of licensed books and nearly going out of business. So yeah, it probably sells better than their 30th Star Trek comic. It's not competing with Batman. It's competing with My Little Pony.
And the biggest point: the online engagement is completely disconnected from reality. There's a huge, terminally online fanbase that will defend this book to the death, but they don't actually buy it. You have huge social media accounts for news, endless discourse, but the book itself struggles to even hit the top 120.
It's a mid-tier book for a mid-tier publisher in a collapsing industry. Calling it anything more is just bad-faith cope.
>>529291843>They have to resort to collabing with another shitter franchise to even make some profit.>Except its the other way aroundMan if I had a nickle for everytime this has happened..
When was the last time Sonic did snowboarding that wasn't a callback to an older game?

>>529292397The comic is still profitable but only because IDW is produced incredibly cheaply like every publisher that is not Marvel, DC, Image, or Dark Horse.
Understand the entire comics division reported a massive loss just because TMNT did not meet expectations. We are talking like 1.8 million dollar loss.

>>529286495One of Japanese Sonic's quirks is that he speaks English sometimes, which has its own connotations unique to Japanese popular culture

>>529293014Well in the case of terminally ill retards on Xitter yes, they don't buy/read. But those who do care have less of an incentive when they could just read this slop for free without giving them a cent. So you really only have a small percentage of people that care enough to read, let alone buy it.
>>529293227Well yeah but the funny part is they're the ones who are most eager to defend the company doing well
>>529293269Honestly here's a stupid question I want to ask. But is there even an affordable way to read these comics without having to buy them individually/subscription service? Manga is pretty vulnerable to the same issues but at least theyre making SOME effort to curve more people into reading with profits Ala subs. If IDW don't really have any system in place besides "buy our comics.." then they absolutely partially deserve the terrible sales relative to the industry at large.
>>529293552Wait until they end up on webtoon.
Even the compilations are not that cheap
>>529293552 (me)
Besides the comics being a train wreck of issues and character molestation. But that feels like a particular issue rather than the comic book stuff at large.
Someone on Twitter actually argued it is good IDW Sonic sells medicore because selling well is uncool.
>>529291679The company would still have to be the one to initiate it. Creatives that want merch and come up with plans for it don't always get it.

>>529294513The most realistic depiction of a panic attack in Sonic...
>>529292692This is from the future. Crossworlds flopped before the Tangle and Whisper DLC released while Blade of Courage became a massive hit and replaced IDW. Ian and Evan also tried pulling a joint Penders, but lost. Ian became homeless and Evan went missing after a visit from SoJ during the production of a new Yakuza game.
>>529292972I feel like originally localization teams used American slang, but this ages too fast
Now they use quips which age a little less and are easier to contextualize within a story, but some fans find it annoying
Must be a difficult thing to navigate since it been a staple of Sonic's character since 1990

>>529301075There's no mandates on the movie due to their massive success. Fowler could easily introduce Sally and have her kill Tails, which Sega won't even stop him.
>>529294908>slangIn context, it's supposed to be culturally trendy/"cool" that Sonic peppers in some English, so that's pretty much all you can do. Problem is that you have to be careful not to go overboard or you risk affecting the characterization too much.
Alternate idea: you can emphasize that Sonic's a world traveler and would pick up words from the places he's traveled to. This doesn't usually work unless the character's supposed to be a foreigner, though, and they oddly enough do this to Robotnik in the live-action movies.
>>529301273>Sonic cannot ask for help (defied)>The master emerald cannot be used by Sonic to go SuperBut these are dumb.
>>529301476the master emerald one is annoying because the workaround they came up with basically results in the same thing

But even if it was a numbers game, the ME still has access to presumably much more Chaos energy by itself than the seven. So using the ME should still unlock Super or even a stronger form because we'll likely never know how many Chaos Emeralds you'd need to match the ME's strength.

>>529304643>Wasn't Mobius always just future-Earth though? Mobius doesn't exist like that in the games, it's literally another planet separated from Sonic's Earth and Sonic's Earth always had humans, animals and the furries which are treated as regular people.
>They could incorporate that in the film to write themselves out of two-worlds. In fact, it'd be perfect if Amy's a time-traveler.No fucking way would they fight the rights for Mobius from Archie. At most they would Flashpoint the universe so humans and furries live together on Earth.
>>529301861Guessing the mandate means he can't be a clown.
>>529304653It became official around the time Colors was the newest entry. The main reason for why the mandate even exists was to make sure that humans cannot appear in future entries due to backlash from Classic Era fans. It's why Generations, Lost World, Boom, Sonic 4: Episode 1+2, and Forces didn't have them.

>>529303239Yea, the moment Krack finally left for a few days this place activity died by 1/3rd and now that no one is biting Duo's bait he's gotten bored and started posting less which makes it painfully obvious how few of us are actually here. I'm pretty sure I know most of you on Discord as is.

>>529306352Vegeta/Shadow comparisons make sense. The Sonic character most similar to Bulma isn't canon and never will be. Rouge Bulma comparisons are extremely forced but reasonable on a surface level. Amy Bulma comparisons are delusional.

>>529306254I've been telling you guys for months that Krack and Duobitch are like %60+ of these threads. The temporary /fast/ migration proved it. This place is like 7-10 people max and it's been that way for months.
>>529306715Tails and Bulma are both geniuses and close friends with the lead character. But Tails isn't lustful, rarely quick to anger. Rarely comes across as vain. He isn't bossy at all. He's very much pure of heart.
You know the character I'm thinking of and why it's best that the idea that Shadow should marry a "bulma-like" character should die.
Also. Tails is a fighter. Come on man. Don't get the taislfags started.
Superstars would have been cooler if it canonized Mach, Max and Sharps.

>>529259663She'll be back, also i think one of her cronies are still active but sitting out after what happened
>>529305591Yeah, it's really unfortunate that the Sonic franchise struggled for a entire decade because Sonic Team was listening to people that only cared about the Genesis games. It makes me wonder what would happen to the Super Mario franchise if 80s Mario fans tried to shit on anything post-SMB 3.
>>529306932>>529306715Oh fuck.
Yeah any amount of research into this subject would land on that cursed crackship again. Rouge and Tails don't even come close. Shadow is based on Vegeta. He isn't literally Vegeta and he doens't have Vegeta's taste in women.
Death to shipping now.
>>529306897We fixed the way they draw him and we're on the verge of fixing his characterization. We just gotta fix his voice direction and hope the movies don't fuck him over and he'll be good.

Sonic fans had to suffer from awful games like 3D Blast, Heroes, Shadow and 06 which broke them.

>>529307263>it's really unfortunate that the Sonic franchise struggled for a entire decade because Sonic Team was listening to people that only cared about the Genesis gamesWhich is wild because those guys were grown ass adults. The kids at the time were zoomers and they grew up with Dragon Ball and Naruto on Toonami, so Shonen Sonic could've appealed to them well enough. But nah, they had to listen to a bunch of out of touch lossrs and ate shit because of it.
>>529306932Sally does outrank Rouge and Tails in Bulma levels obviously, but Rouge is the closest canon character to Bulma who is still a woman so Vegebul should be used for Shadouge bait.
Who is the Chi-Chi of Sonic?
Why are Sonic shippers so stupid? I mean people who ship Sonic himself.
I don't care if you want to draw or gen him fucking. Go ahead. I also don't care if you mean a specific comic version of him. That's a different character.
I mean people who legitimately believe sonic and Shadow have romantic potential. In the games. People who think THAT Sonic is making any headway in romance. Fucking deluded.
If Eggman wasn't a game character, he would have died during the Eggperial city arc
>>529306423Not into the Nicky and time swap thing, but I like the everything else. Sonic's dad being a pilot and the reason he has the Tornado is a great idea. Making Uncle Chuck his brother would be even better because he'd be Paulie's mechanic, creating a parallel with Sonic and Tails.

>>529308450This fandom loves deconstruction so much. Unironically deconstructing a lot of these ships would be more interesting than trying to unironically convince me that Shadow should be marrying Amy or anything else ridiculous like that.

>>529308693No. Shipperfags are genuinely fucking stupid.
>>529305591>>529307263I understand were they were coming from because SA1 and onward had a different feel from the Genesis game and they missed that. Same thing happens when any series does something way too different
But I rather have a team embrace a direction that they themselves truly 100% believe in and have passion for even if it's not for me than artificially recreate something old that they don't really care about anymore only to please a group
>>529308693its fun. also with all the retarded time travel shenanigans, there's at least a 0.01% chance that if Shadow and Rouge were his parents, he'd get sent to the future through some accident
>>529308575>trying to unironically convince me that Shadow should be marrying Amy or anything else ridiculous like thatThe idea is that her and Maria are very similar, which they aren't at all. Amy's a Genki Girl, Maria is not. They're both sweethearts, but that's it. Maria doesn't have Amy's energy at all.
>>529308693Oh fuck off. If they really wanted to they could easily make silver a descendant of, say, shadow and rouge. I remember hearing somewhere that they might have even had that in mind early on in it's development.
>>529295717>>LOL WHAT IF VANILLA ACTS LIKE NICOLE WATTERSONThis but written and illustrated by sunibee
>>529308575Maekawa sunk the Shadamy ship when he replied that Amy =/= Maria in Shadow's eyes. There's no reason for Shadow to be interested in her.
>>529308868Oh I love this one.
We used to post one, about shadow being her stepfather, preparing cream for school, teaching cream if someone mess with her, she would aim for the throat. Cream goes super happy to school while vanilla gives shadow a killer look.
>>529307989>but Rouge is the closest canon character to Bulma who is still a woman so Vegebul should be used for Shadouge bait.
This is unironically more legitimate than when people try to force Rouge into the position of Bulma.
>>529301273>>Shadow cannot be funny
>>529307989>Rouge is the closest canon character to BulmaShe really isn't. There are a few similarities but tails and amy, even wave are arguably way closer to bulma. Rouge is more like Mai, or maybe even Android.
>>529308896>he'd get sent to the future through some accidentLike through those portals that keep on opening up for him?
>>529309228Sonic can crack jokes because he's a chill guy who loves adventure. But Shadow's dark, emo and ruthless with a tragic backstory. He HAS to be taken seriously to make all those bits work. SINCERITY is key.
>>529308101Amy in Sonic X, Battle and Free Riders had massive Chi-Chi aura that no other character can ever hope to match.
>>529308969Dude, sega actually said he have no relation at all to any sonic character at all. He's not a descendant to anyone he's just another joe that happens to be a hedgehog. Even if what you said is true about early development (is not) sega made if just another guy. So fuck you for your biased story shipfag.
>>529304952Speaking of Dragon Ball faggots, who's the Xavier/Paragon of Sonic?
>>529309290>WaveI'm not even trying to justify ships when I say both Wave and Sally individually outclass most of the characters willfully used as Bulma. Especially Wave
I understand not wanting Sally in that position. She's meant to be a Sonic love interest (yeah I know, wind) and a Non canon character known for shipping lunacy.
Wave is literally more Bulma like in every way than Rouge.
But Shadow and Wave (rightfully) sounds fucking retarded.
People want Rouge to be Bulma so bad that they just ignore the fact that Bulma being a love interest to Vegeta is practically a footnote in her character.
>>529309580Awf would count since he's a self-inserting coomer but he's not Black.
What are they looking at?
>>529309639What character lmao? Bulma is a greedy slut woman like Rouge
>>529308969>Oh fuck off. If they really wanted to they could easily make silver a descendant of, say, shadow and rougeIf they really wanted to they could say Sonic is gay and sucks big gorilla dicks all the time but they don't do that because they don't fucking want to.

>>529307694>Mario fans have no reason to shit on anything post SMB 3NTA but World was a downgrade to SMB 3. SM64 was ambitious but played very clunky. The entire gamecube era felt like Nintendo was throwing shit on the wall in hopes it sticks(Luigi getting his own solo horror game, a very edgy soccer game where the entire cast acted OOC, golf + tennis games that was filled with human OCs, Wario Land being abandoned for a bizzare sub-par 3D beat-them-up that featured Wario as the protagonist, four mediocre Mario Party games that are seen inferior to the N64 Mario Party trilogy, DK musical spin-offs when people wanted DKC 4, and a DDR clone that nobody asked for). The Wii era was a improvement at first but immediately got stale due to Nintendo trying to be safe as possible. The Wii U era was pretty much the same.
The only reason why the Mario franchise didn't attacked by journalists or a vocal minority was because it's a Nintendo franchise, hence "Nintendo could do no wrong". The Sonic franchise isn't a Nintendo IP, so people were more willing to shit on it for the lols or because it's not like their childhood games anymore.
>>529309639>People want Rouge to be Bulma so bad that they just ignore the fact that Bulma being a love interest to Vegeta is practically a footnote in her character.Too many times have people forgotten that Trunks is a legit bastard child and Vegeta married Bulma after the fact.
Like Vegeta only ever stayed with Bulma since it was free housing and food. He barely gave a shit about his own son.
>>529309575>Dude, sega actually said he have no relation at all to any sonic character at allThen what's the point of making him a hedgehog from the future? People are gonna expect that no matter what.

All this nonsense about silver being a descendant to sonic or shadow is lame and boring.
Imagine if he was the descendant of someone really unexpected, I don't know, tails or espio that would be actually fun.
Silver is from 200 years from the futures I imagine at that point the family tree had a lot of different animals on it, now that sounds rad, but I prefer silver being just a normal unrelated guy.
The chip and dale shit was accurate.
