We haven’t done an edgy fancomic in a while! It’s a new Sonic.EXE comic and it’s still updating and pretty frequently, too! There’s something wrong with Sonic! Shadow and Silver would like to know but they’re too busy bleeding and dying! This is In Depth!
>>460155 https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/141875906.html#141877118 Wait, EVEN CHUCK!?
https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/141875906.html#141877205 >that window Ah! Guess most people were distracted with Silver being a dimwit to notice it.
>>460166 He is part of the OG Freedom Fighters and Antoine helped out Tails a few times in the early Sonic comics.
>>460168 Missed opportunity or was it intentionally not used because of how horrendouse sonic Live! is? Also, how similar is Sally AI to Metallix from "A sly Encounter"?
>>460200 >Well that wasn't very nice! Are you kidding? He has granted deliverance from the curse of eternal undeath. Couldn't have gotten a better gift.
Website update: Instead of fixing the images like I was supposed to, I've made some changes to the backend so that we now have comic backlinks. This means that every post that's linked to on one of the comic pages will now have a link back to the comic! You can see what I mean by opening any of the early threads. This means the archived threads and the comics pages are now fully integrated with each other! >>460183 Typical Sonadow comic amirite? >>460185 Rock-sama really is too powerful >>460187 >silver: there is? i'm still on that iblis trigger thing Maybe Sonic's the Knothole traitor! >>460193 The minor spelling and grammar mistakes genuinely make the story more enjoyable >>460197 Oh boy, zombie twinks! >>460202 Hey, it's Silver's rarely seen static shock powers! >>460203 Jealous! >>460206 Would! Seriously though, it's a great start to an edgekino comic
>>460217 >I've made some changes to the backend so that we now have comic backlinks. This means that every post that's linked to on one of the comic pages will now have a link back to the comic!

It seems needlessly complicated, to me, but impressive.
>>460180 SOoC Chapter 003 - Page 055 https://www.deviantart.com/justtheauthor This was originally a 12mb gif so I've converted it to webm >>460217 Whoops, I meant to underline instead of spoiler that >>460218 Thanks! Yeah, it's definitely needlessly complicated, but self-indulgent stuff like that is exactly what hobby websites are for!
>>460219 Used ezgif.com (I know, I know), but it's incredible how much you can reduce the size of that kind of image without any loss by just selecting "remove duplicate frame" with a 0% fuzz.
>>460221 And if you next select the "optimize transparency" option, with just a 2% fuzz, you can even make the file 4chanfriendly while keeping it seamless.
>>460213 That was considered at a point but decided to turn it into a whole chair and chamber combo. AI Sally is very much like Mecha Sally but more aware. >>460214 Seeing the glass half full. I can dig it. >>460215 This feels like it's skipping all of the game stuff and getting to... whatever is going on with Elise. >>460216 Too busy trying to get these corrupted mobians to mate. >>460217 >The minor spelling and grammar mistakes genuinely make the story more enjoyable Always fun to see in fancomics. >>460305 There's so much variety in the fancomic space.
I remember a panel where Sonic walk alongside Sally saying something along the line of "wait, you mean that it would have been actually okay if I had punched Geoffrey?" But I can't remember seeing it in the ride. Does anyone know where it was from? Was it from a fan-comic?
>>460322 nicole looks so sexy in that! >>460324 Oof... Thats kinda mean lol. They arent the best lackeys but thats just kinda like mechas destruction >>460325 Sonic cant help but be happy. But man, nice to see Sally in this get saved. Can't wait to see what they do next. Also sally is real cute in this, really like the red eye lids, its cute!
>>460217 Another website update Finally figured out what was causing the thumbnails in post previews to not work properly. It's finally working! >>460322 >everyone's commenting on Nicole's translucent dress >no one's commenting on best boy Ash in that absolutely slutty pose You're all plebs, every one of you! >>460324 At least they finally got their promotion >>460327 Nice! I can't wait to seduce the Twilight Cage Pirates! >>460328 Oh man, I'd love to get that good with 3D modeling >>460330 It stopped for a while so I kinda forgot about it. Happy for you to post it or to do it myself. It's really good, although the one with Silver and Blaze is even better. That one's not freely available yet though
I drew a sick tails idea, what if Miles tails instead of flying were burning to aid with the cool red trenchcoat and gun combo... i based it after an AI generation but i think the result came out really well.
>>460332 >Finally figured out what was causing the thumbnails in post previews to not work properly. It's finally working! Yay!
>spoiler The one with Silver and Blaze is the one called haunted and the one I am talking about and it's getting slowly updated on furrafinity, if I am not mistaken. Our Secret with Shadow and furry Mariah, on the other hand, is finished and I just realised that.
I love hate that scrambled arc, on one hand, really shows why eggman is someone you don’t fuck with. On the other, unless it’s really sonic, literally no other character can really give him some real pushback or defeats. Not just this but the franchise in general. Makes a lot of characters kinda look like shit to later prop up sonic as the only guy to really defeat him a lot of the time. More characters shiuod be able to fight him and get some victories too if encountered imo
>>460354 It feels like a mandate thing at this point. Sonic and Eggman forever fighting each other but never actually beating the other. I know that becomes a thing at one point, especially in IDW, but it feels that way in this comic. Unfortunately it's really bad at this point because Eggman is unstoppable and yet when Sonic is after him, he's not so unstoppable. Also why both could end things forever but don't.
>>460180 Nectar: The World Before 73 https://www.deviantart.com/icys From the author: >I tried to draw background, please don't let me draw background ever... Also I'm proud of my Shadow's ass-- I mean his back drawing here. It's certainly got my seal of approval!
>>460336 Very nice! Being a kitsune, it makes sense Tails would have fire powers >>460339 She should! >>460341 Thanks! >haunted Yeah, I completely mixed them up >>460343 Looks like Aleena in the thumbnail, nice! >>460345 We need more older Kit art! >>460354 I liked the arc, but I prefer Eggman to only talk up being a massive threat that's only a slight effort from world domination. He could easily overrun most cities' local forces (local militia, GUN, FFs, etc), but wouldn't be able to hold it once reinforcements arrived. I was fine with him taking over most of the world in Forces since Infinite could just conjure up entire armies of Shadow/Chaos/Zavok/etc. It'd only been six months so I could see the resistance getting wise to his tactics and winning back ground even without Sonic and Tails >>460355 I'm actually fine with Sonic and Eggman never scoring a decisive victory, but they should be able to win battles here and there. We were a bit spoiled in Archie since Sonic (really Snively) killed Robotnik and he (more or less) stayed dead. IDW complaining below:
My main issue with the stalemate in IDW is it never feels earned. It's fine when they let Eggman go in Boom since he's mostly just a nuisance, but IDW Eggman has an astronomical bodycount, to the point where random civilians would put a drill wisp through his head. Making Sonic have an arbitrary no kill policy to avoid this is a massively unsatisfying way to keep Eggman alive, especially when Game, Archie, and even Movie Sonic are totally fine with killing when necessary.
Instead, I want to see Eggman doing something clever to get away, only for Sonic and friends to counter it, but not enough that he still doesn't get away. Eggman's supposed to be a survivor, and having Sonic just let him go robs us of cool villain gloating when he gets away properly
>>460356 Sonic Universe is still a great comic, but I was expecting more stories where we see others give Eggman some serious pushback
>>460365 As he should be. Not only did he kill the original Robotnik but he's also considered a greater danger because he can foolishly destroy the planet. As a threat on his own he's pretty harmless but with access to other technology he can be a major threat. But at the end of that story, Eggman won and Snively is done.
>>460362 Hey, it was a lot of fun! And I'm not just saying that because of the Sonknux scenes or that the update lets you play as Knuckles! >>460366 People tend to forget he's a genius and close to Robotnik's level when it comes to tech. I guess all the groveling he does kinda undermines that >>460372 I see our special friend's back. I think he's got a crush on me!
>>460375 >I see our special friend's back. I think he's got a crush on me! He was the one asking about the missing Sonic X pages from the start of the series and I'd bet he was the one yesterday bringing up the Rally4Sally thing. He always comes in and starts random stuff but sticks to a few topics he's been using for years. Everything else is just random drama and arguing. I ignore all of it so if it is or isn't him I never give him attention.
Sonic and the Freedom Fighters Issue 5 Page 14 https://mobiuscomics.com
It’s easy for Sonic to act on his own and do his own thing but being a leader means he has to think about everyone. Sonic has the leadership skills but this is what happens when he doesn’t accept responsibilities. Probably should’ve listened to Sally instead of… well… you know…
I genuinely don’t know how my joke post about the page of Mordred being curb-stomped by Silver had actual argument and people thinking I was genuinely upset he lost as if there was gonna be any other result?
>>460382 I am a bit compulsive in replying to posts aimed to me, I just find it more funny that people actually thought i got actually mad at the page. Like I love the snek but dude got beaten by a rock and Vector giving him the classic Aussie back of the head punch, he’d need some serious bullshit to even fight Silver.
>>460378 Yeah, I ended up making an account just to archive Sonic art >>460379 Yeah, that was 100% him >I ignore all of it so if it is or isn't him I never give him attention. Hey, you're talking about the future Mr Thirstposter there! >>460380 Love the posing in the last panel >>460381 I saw it as mostly playful shitposting
>>460387 We've had a minimum of 29, a maximum of 68, and an average of 45 for the Archie threads. For the rest, we've had a minimum of 8, a maximum of 135, and an average of 28. We're definitely getting a lot more posters in the Archie threads, and I've been seeing way more hits on the website since we swapped over to Archie. Actually, we just passed one million visitors!
>>460388 Nice! I find the trends in the Archie threads to be interesting. Tails focused threads get a lot more people and activity. Knuckles was really struggling. Same with Sonic X. And Mega Man is doing really well.
>>460392 Why is Furville's people so much better than Mobotropolis' citizens? And that's even before Naugus came in. I'm going to remember that one heroic twink. He had a good, simple design.
>>460309 Pretty much, from what I can tell. I do like how it shows how much less interested S&FF Robotnik is in killing or conquering the world that he doesn't harm Sally herself and simply copies her mind into a robotic double. Being an actual scientist, albeit a totally amoral one, ironically makes him more 'nice'to deal with than Archie Eggman.
>>460311 I think most people are still assuming your Eggman is as evil as Archie's or Fleetway's and haven't realized that he'd never use something like roboticization or the Metal Virus or stuff like that - those are all tools of conquest, whilst this one is just a scientist trying to learn all he can in morally dubious ways.

As I suspected, ASO is doing their own Super Special!
>ASO is proud to announce Sonic Super Special Online! Our new, ongoing series revives the classic Sonic Super Special series published from 1997 to 2001. News will be infrequent as we prioritize our two main titles, but get excited for Sonic Super Special Online #16, now in production!
>>460431 Xander's hippy brother sticking around as Emerald Spears leader makes them better. He can slowly radicalize as Wily wrecks the future more while still being a threat Mega Man can't just shoot.
>Read last Rediscovered Frontiers chapter >Secret freedom fighters planning to create another genesis wave to reverse the reboot. Thats an interesting path Elias chose to take.
>>460372 https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/141930767.html#141932097 Wait did you actually did the original story in the Sonic Super Special magazine?
>>460457 So its just a bigger amount of pages for the same story ?
Doesnt seem to make sense to make a separate series just for that. Are you sure they arent using a different format, changed cast, anything unique to the Sonic Super Special ?
>>460468 I'm almost certain that artist has posted in the Tamers threads. Did some nice Aleena lewds https://twitter.com/HeadBuster15/status/1393530807059353600
>>460468 >I believe that Elias is a good boi who would be loyal to his wife It's so funny that Elias is drawn with literally anyone but his actual wife.
>>460473 It's not always incest, in fact here's one where he's valiantly putting himself between Tails and Amadeus to prevent incest! Seriously though, I've never seen any smut of him and his wife, which is kinda sad
And the other one! >>460475 Yeah, it's sadly rare ;_; >mobius unleashed I love that they include the more obscure Archie characters but really dislike their artstyle. It just feels so uninspired
>>460465 Interesting issue where it turn out the person codenamed King is actually a King and the one who has been turned into Serving Robotnik is actually the traitor.
More Seriously, I think Silver's confusion can actually be explained. The bits he had of history indicated a Founding member of the FF betraying them all and he didn't consider Roboticization as an heel-turn. He had betrayal in mind, not brain-control.
>>460488 Thanks! I'll look into that. >>460498 Unironically understandable. I know that there are people that don't like constant hornyposting. But that is part of 4chan culture.
If only I could bet money on which posts were the schizo, I'd be rich. Might be risking if the replies he gets are him or someone gullible enough to give him attention. The Archie threads get more people that might not be used to his antics.
>>460507 The part about any person really trying to point fingers when they're taking part in this fandom in the first place as an adult is what really gets me. Not so high and mighty are they think they are.
>>460509 It's always best to ignore the obviously negative stuff that attacks people in the threads. He's also the only one that talks about Geoffrey fucking Sally, only one who will say diapers, randomly bring up the Rally4Sally thing, and any other meltdown about Tails. But it's all the randomness and lack of subtlety.
>>460511 Yeah I know. Only thing he's right about is how much of a loser kuta is. but yeah, stirring shit in the threads is a dick move. Funny thing tho, claims only like 40+ year olds like the comic but people already proving that wrong, and hell, i'm in my early 20s and like it.
>>460507 I wonder if he's still a janny? I put out a few posts implying he's a janny but they didn't get deleted. My posts linking to here haven't been deleted in a while either. Imagine being such a garbage person even 4chan mods won't put up with you! >>460508 I was kinda surprised with that one, but he's probably running out of ideas >>460509 He's literally a 4chan janitor (or used to be), he's really not in a position to argue over life choices >>460512 Too bad he doesn't realize how similar Kuta and he are. SatAM/Archie's got a real timeless quality that seems to resonate with fans from any generation. It's kinda ironic since Sonic as a brand is supposed to be about whatever's currently cool
>>460513 >My posts linking to here haven't been deleted in a while either. Welp! >>460515 It's almost always the same guy. I know that some would think it's multiple people but The Unofficial Ride had a really small number of anons posting so when he starts shitting up threads, it's obvious. Because he lacks subtlety and has the same posting behavior. It comes from years of seeing his antics. And as always, shitposting means things will get deleted.
>deletes the posts pointing out Hitler's a loser >doesn't delete his /pol/sperging lmao >deletes my post pointing here Oh IDWkun, you do care! >>460515 It's the same guy. He got lazy a while back and didn't rotate IPs so when he was IP banned we got to see which posts were his. I did a rundown here: >>458051 >>460516 If no one bites he just sockpuppets. He got me a few times too though >>460517 >Welp! And now we know he's still a janny, and that he almost certainly reads our threads here too! Didn't delete my posts implying he's a janny though. Lazy!
>>460519 Funny such a pussy he waited till now to stir up shit instead of when the threads were bustling or generating interest, actual coward behaviours yet let threads be enjoyable
>>460520 Well he is a janitor, they're not exactly known for their bravery! Fun fact: the real reason I have a thread and post count on the website is to show how ineffectual he is. 776 threads and almost 270k posts and we're still here having fun!
>>460521 Damn, been at this longer then I have in the unofficial threads with my comm posting, Silvaze seething, Tails smut is gross ranting and Mordred Hood shilling
>>460523 That's why it's always best to ignore any posts you think are by the schizo. Anything looking like a shitpost is best left ignored. People have gotten warning and even bans for replying to him.
https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/141993084 In better news, Roll has a thread. Good to see awareness for the Archie Mega Man comic has increased.
>>460522 lmao, those are all fun at least! I'll have to look through the 4/co/ and /vg/ archives to see how long he's actually been around >>460523 Yeah, that's why I highlight deleted posts in the archived threads >>460524 Seconding this. I don't mind eating bans so I'll sometimes reply to him >>460531 Sonic's always been a magnet for autists and obsessives. Without them the fandom would be a much duller place >>460533 https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/94426353/ That's some serious dedication to janny bullying, naughty naughty! >>460534 >Sonic and Knuckles arguing in the background Well I'm sold!
>>460537 Around the time of Endgame. Antoine and Bunnie started their romance and Antoine stood up for Sonic against Geoffrey. You can thank Penders for both. >>460538 LOL >>460539 I guess Ian wanted them to work better when they were focused on saving Mobotropolis but when they were split up and had more time to interact with each other, they were able to get all their frustration out and understand each other.
What's interesting is that we have reached a point where the discussions about the comics at the time of its publication can be found in the archives: https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/38465287/
Archie Sonic Storytime #122 Sonic #242, Sonic Universe #45, and Time for a Comeback https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/142004910 https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/142004910
One anon was a lil peeved at my post about archie and that uniform direction complaint I had. lol. I dont think I was saying I wanted archie to replace the games. Was basically trying to say I liked archie being a unique au to follow and just consider that uniform direction for most spinoffs that gets rid of any uniqueness a bit boring and lame. If everything is the same than whats the point, thats just how I see it anway.
Low key pisses me off when I see that one anon blame something on izuka all the damn time and some other isms. I fucking hate it. It’s never a good look and really does us look like the stereotypical bad look of Archie fans. Not to mention the constant pointing fingers at someone being a shitposter.
And yes, I know there really some some malicious people who sometimes troll, but not a fan when it gets to the point of when anyone says even remotely negative about the comic and stuff, schizo accusations constantly get thrown a lot. Like idk, I love you guys some just some things have been bothering when I go through threads. Needed to vent these things because it ticks me off.
>>460559 I wouldn't take it too seriously. Iizuka's the face of Sonic team and a lot of decisions do come from him but also from people above him. As for calling people the schizo, that's usually in response to shitposting. Some of us know through constant experience who that person is but others might not and will accuse the wrong people. It happens. But even last night it was obvious who he was because then a lot of posts were deleted at the same time and in a similar fashion TP's post with the link to this thread was deleted. As for the current thread, I won't claim anyone is the schizo. Too many people and I don't see the usual topics. Just some intense bickering over games and movies.
Think of it this way. If I can spend years dealing with the shit I get from the mods and that one person then you can handle some people on 4chan being weird and wrong.
Sonic and the Freedom Fighters Issue 5 Page 15 https://mobiuscomics.com
It’s common knowledge that villains have to be constantly plotting against each other, even if they’re “working” together. And AI Sally seems to be curious about Metal Sonic. Some things never change.
Thinking about how this franchise since Generations to the remaster of it has been nothing but nostalgia pandering crap has got me quite miffed. Gens quite literally turned this franchise's identity into constantly referencing the past. I hate it so much. Stuff like that just makes me feel less happy in being a fan.
>>460572 Generations didn't do anything. It's just that nostalgia pandering is hard to fuck up and brings in the money. What caused the stagnation you've seen was the colossal flop of Boom.
>>460573 Generations really started the whole classic sonic thing so it surely did have part too and yeah boom too. Can't believe boom was an actual thing looking back
Sonic the Continuation Issue 22 Page 4 https://www.deviantart.com/okida/art/S-T-C-Issue-22-Page-4-1016595192 Huh. Now there's a ship I wasn't expecting. At the very least, Sally got her awakening.
>>460551 https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/142004910.html#142005574 They are talking about a similar race having taken place the previous year. Was there ever any mention of it beforehand?
Don't know if it was talked about here, but I only learned now that Gigi D lost her husband a few months ago: https://twitter.com/GigiD_Sonic/status/1716865983305166858
>>460551 I am considering putting Sonic All-star Racing right after “Sonic Rush Adventure: High Stakes on The High Sea” comic game-teaser, so just before issue #185. Sonic is already in an other dimension in Sonic Rush Adventure, so maybe he took a wrong turn at Albuquerque while trying to come back and bumped into all of those people he had allegedly already had a race with the previous year...
>>460574 Boom was a fantastic idea that Sega ate alive the same way they ate 06 alive. The sad reality is that the money people have no will to try something ambitious and every early released badly polished failure reinforces that.

Seriously though, they really should've picked a different name >>460549 I'm cautiously optimistic. He did a good job on Frontiers, although he had two Sonic Team co-writers >>460553 TKA didn't have them in the zips and I'd already spent weeks cleaning and organizing the comics at that point. I'd like to go back and add them eventually though >>460557 Protip: reset your cookies, then your router, and then check the banned page to see if you're still banned. Not that I'd know anything about that! >>460559 I do like joking about Iizuka (and Flynn) but ultimately they both clearly care about the franchise. I'm looking forward to see what they'll do with Shadow's story considering he's Iizuka's favorite character >>460561 I've said it before, but I genuinely think we're the closest thing our special friend has to any social interaction >>460562 >AI Sally checking out Metal Sonic's booty Now that's attention to detail Eggman! >>460566 Nice! >>460572 Gens was fun but their obsession with anniversaries and nostalgia really has gotten out of hand. I'm glad Frontiers scaled it back >>460577 lmao, was not expecting that! >>460587 Thanks! It's actually a sprite from Sonic 2. I've also got one for NSFW images. Unfortunately, the transparency isn't working for some reason >>460593 lmao >>460594 Infested having him be too big to fit through the door's my favorite

>>460629 >My guess is it's a different janny since we didn't get our special friend visiting the thread It's either him or the mod he works with. Nobody else cares or visits the threads.

I wouldn't be surprised if I learned her work was used to train AI.
Anyway, we enter the mouth of February, so we get cute things like this.

>>460651 I'm reminded of Red Dwarf where the crew go back in time and accidentally stop the assassination on Kennedy but it leads to America being an abandoned wasteland.

I was so endeared by the snek man and laughed really hard at snek man fans antics that I decided to sketch this admittedly mid but silly doodle here Thank you snek anon, you actually got me unstuck out of my months long rut.

>>460180 Tethered Futures 1-13 https://tethered-futures.the-comic.org/comics/15 Huh, that's actually a really cool idea >>460678 I like the expressions, very nice!
>>460678 Righteous my dude, this may actually help me out if I do another comm as like the way hair is done here, i’m always up to spread the good of Lord Hood and happy you enjoyed my character autism, may you draw many more snek
>>460677 Oh i don’t mind you moderating since you are a swell guy, honestly spoilering the posts may have saved my bacon there or the jannies are to spread with all the Hazbin and Suicide Squad seethe
>>460683 Haha, thanks! The goal is if I set an image as nsfw it won't expand when you click expand all, so you have to expand it manually. Looks like I broke that so I'll have to fix it ;_;
Yeah, you can get away with spoilers if no one reports anything, especially now that the jannies are spread so thin. It's been getting pretty bad on most sfw boards for a while now, to the point they added cooldown for starting threads from new IPs to slow down the vidja butts poster on /v/. Even /g/ had a porn thread with 100s of posts stay up for hours https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/98792098
>>460684 I may have to order more smutty Mordred content for the future then as I like to spit in the face of these jannies ever since they deleted my tame and non offensive content in the past, shame not more artists or commissioners contributing to the Hoodening but I consider it now my civic duty
>>460685 Yeah, I'm the same with the homoerotic images. They're fun to post, but knowing the jannies hate it never fails to put a smile on my face. Looking forward to more Mordred fun!
>>460180 Man, looking back at my very first time and post in the threads I was a bit of a tool, i’m happy I was to busy with work to not be more of a shit stirrer then or more needlessly argumentative regarding my distaste for Silvaze and actually had fun with the threads since then onwards, I wonder where that one spike spigel Duck guy who called me out at the end is now….
>>460667 Realtalk I think he and the Baron deserve each other. As much as the Baron plays the kindly overlord dude is a nasty groomer who takes advantage of his traumtized, brainwashed cyborg troops by playing Nice Dad to Jack and Eggman's Mean Dad expertly. If the Bunnie Legionnare plot did happen I hope Ian would've gone more into what a hypocrite the man was.
>>460694 I am surprised there are very little fancomics about the dark Mobius timeline, though, especially with the whole Prelates business, it means that most of the cast is still relatively young.
>Gets fooled by Sonic and Tails >Gets fooled by Sonic and Bunnie >Gets fooled by the Chaotix Who else is left to screw Jack over in the future ? The Secret Freedom Fighters ?
Last ride the encyclopedia was done at the very end but now that I think about it, wouldn't it be better to do before the reboot? I could do it after the crossover.
>>460713 Looks like having that many images in a 4chan thread broke my thumbnail generation code so the last two don't show up. Back to the drawing board! >>460716 He's the full package, hew hew! >>460717 At 1106 posts that was our largest ever 4chan thread, with the second largest only having 911 posts (https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/141314340.html). Our largest thread overall is here >>451275 and it has 1335 posts

The Battle Bird Armada’s soldiers may not be that strong individually but their numbers more than make up for it. But one bird in particular doesn’t seem to like what he sees.
Game question, but what's the point of the Super peel-out when you have the Spin-Dash? It does the same except Spin-Dash allow you to destroy enemies at the same time when launched.
>>460725 It continues! Just think, if he does them all we can do an Archie Ride:™ Feet Edition!™ >>460727 It's risk versus reward for an instant speed boost. Spindash will protect you from (non-spiked) enemies, but slows down on flat or inclining surfaces since you're using rolling physics. The peel-out has a higher initial speed, and won't slow you down to a stop since it uses running physics. Its main drawback is you're just as vulnerable as you would be while running, but you're going faster than your regular running speed so obstacles are harder to avoid. That said, the peel-out was much easier to use in CD since CD's original spindash had you hold down A for a few seconds before it would work. There also wasn't any charging of the spindash since the Sonic 2 spindash was being developed by a different team (Sonic 2 was made in America with American devs and the members of Sonic Team that chose to emigrate whereas CD was made by the devs that chose to stay in Japan) >>460729 It keeps happening! >>460732 I can't believe you killed our special friend!
>>460734 It did (I've beat the game on hardware and emulation), it's just extremely frustrating to use. If you've got the Android/iOS port, you can try it out by toggling it in the settings https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Spin_Dash#Sonic_the_Hedgehog_CD
I know these are the archie central threads and may sound bias but lol at the idw threads. Literally every time I go there's always some shit flinging, the always idw is gonna die soon posts, etc. It's tiresome and always a turn off from trying to ever have any real discussions in those.
>>460739 It's because it's the designated /sthg/ thread on /co/ as well as the Sonic Prime threads and maybe the Sonic movie threads. That being said, the number of anons that join the Archie threads are almost twice as much as the Unofficial threads were. Not that many people frequently posted in the Unofficial threads but we're averaging 50 posters a thread and aside from some obvious shitposting which can mostly be attributed to two people, it's been very positive. We enjoy the good, call out the bad, and have fun with the crazy stuff. I'm all for poking fun at stuff I don't like but I don't want to get angry or stay focused on it.
I know IDW isn't generating a lot of genuine interest but I try to be neutral at worst. It's a shame that there are so many that stay in those IDW threads and only talk shit about everything. And no matter how much some hate IDW, they hate Archie more and you can tell they aren't following our threads. There's an acquired appreciation when someone actually reads the comics. But there are those that will never give it a chance. And there are also those that have tried Archie and didn't like it.
>>460739 Man, I went in there to mess with the schizo and even that isnt fun, genuinely trying to discuss things there wasn't viable as he'll immediately reply and he's just to formulaic and mind broken to even get any joy from annoying since guy is a broken record
>>460743 The relentless negativity toward anything and everything at any opportunity on those threads are draining, like genuinely no point in making a Sonic thread on the site cause unless it is ride related it's just gonna get to many people just going in to fling shit at each other or argue why this continuity is awful or how this sucks now, that sucked then, your mother shoulda sucked....though not as bad as Spider-Man threads are permanently suppose
>>460745 I'm also reminded of the Superman threads when Bendis was writing. I think it's a 4chan mindset. A lot of anons don't want to talk about stuff they like. They just want to talk about stuff they hate. Threads are made often and they consistently get more people posting so it incentivizes people to make more threads like that and others to post in it. It's a vicious cycle.
>>460746 I mean I first posted in the ride cause hated something and felt like everyone else had to know so can sorts get it but have grown out of that for most part. Shame as honestly threads where people bounce ideas or actually earnestly talk about things are fun, why like Spiderman villain threads more the plain ol Spidey threads
>>460736 I'm still hung up on them having the guts to call the game 'Sonic x Shadow' >>460739 While our special friend likes shitting up all Sonic threads, movie and IDW threads are his favorites. In some ways the movie ones are worse because one of the jannies kicked up so much shit deleting movie threads for no reason the mods had to step in. Not that they're much better, considering they told /sthg/ they weren't allowed to talk about the movies >>460743 >Sonic Prime Hey, those are my designated Sonknux webm spamming threads! >I know IDW isn't generating a lot of genuine interest but I try to be neutral at worst. Yeah, I try to keep those threads positive whenever I post, even if it's mostly just the Rough and Tumble issues >>460745 That's precisely ABIB and our special friend's goal. They want anons to stop talking about Sonic because they're salty >>460747 I get that. I've been trying to be more positive and constructive in my criticism but I'm still tempted to go full salt on some subjects
>>460749 Yeah I have a lot of seethe in my soul but I did enough of that unofficial ride regarding fandom topics or personal opinions and since then has been nice just talking what I enjoy in Sonic last year and this one, don't need to beat a dead Sir Connery, anyway have hopefully 3rd film can lead to some fun threads in future or something. Been tempted to make a Sonic thread sometime, probably a Mordred Hood one but would probably just draw the schmuck who is especially deranged today
>>460751 Well it's been a lot of fun talking (and sometimes arguing) with you in the threads! Oh man, the Sonic 4 threads are going to be insane, especially since they're going to have to include Maria's death scene. Good luck with making a thread, and staying under the radar of our special friend. He definitely targets thread regulars. Personally, I only ever make threads to do storytimes when the Konductor gets banned. I wouldn't mind storytiming some other comics but it's not worth the hassle for me when I can just post here instead. >>460753 Whoops, missed that post! I couldn't track that down, but I've found the pencils for SU95-97. We've already got the colors for 95 though. I've also got some concept art b y ABT. At least I've got some time to put it together! Oh, and I've got something even better: The script for the canceled Scourge the Speed Demon comic. Viewer beware: You're in for a scare! >>460754 >cheek tufts and almond eyes That makes it canon!
>>460755 >Oh man, the Sonic 4 threads are going to be insane, especially since they're going to have to include Maria's death scene. What does Maria have to do with Sonic 4? Unless you are talking of a different game?
>>460759 I meant the third film. They just revealed the actor for Maria. Oh, and fun fact: the music transforms into Shadow's leitmotif at the end >>460756 It's on tails.kicks-ass.net if you'd like to read it before I post it. The setting's called Shiv Town!
>>460761 Fingers crossed they make a forth one, and then I'll have been correct the entire time! Looks like she's in, along with Alyla Browne as Maria. They also named James Wolk, Cristo Fernandez, Jorma Taccone, and Sofia Pernas. https://www.sonicstadium.org/news/media/six-new-cast-members-including-krysten-ritter-alyla-browne-and-james-wolk-confirmed-for-sonic-3-r1889/
The Pendering and reboot reminds me of that episode of Star Trek TNG where Beverly Crusher is stuck in a pocket universe version of the ship and crew members disappear and she's the only one aware.
See people bring up sonic in shadow and comparing to prime. giving shadow sonic a pass but sonic is such an obnoxious faggot in this game, the same shit people say about prime sonic apply to him in that game. annoying blue bastard and then 06 went to the the oppsite spectrum with straight up boring. lol
>>460757 Is she getting darker or did I forget how dark they made her to begin with? >>460764 That episode involves the alien who eventually ruins Wesley's character... in an episode that is very very bad all around for writing and casting. >>460767 I sort of wish the first movie never happened. It was very Hollywood.
>>460772 I think Shadow was well written in Prime, so I don't really think he even need to be given a "pass" in the first place.
Just a bit anoyed he is never faced with the fact that he is never faced with the fact that he is at least partially responsible for the mess that happens, because he makes Sonic late because of a vision that result in a self-fulfilling prophecy, but regardless of that, his writing is respectful of his character.
Noticing lately some sonic threads on co starting up with a pic of surge and some text to basically have people fight each other. Not only is she a shitty shit stirrer but so are her fans lol. Shame how sonic threads lately tend to be so fucking negative aside ours

>>460784 Man, I should have started working on my next batch of reading order list for a while, now, but I just don't have the heart for it. Haven't got it since the genesis arc.
I didn't even realize how much the Super Genesis Wave messes things up. For Sonic, it not only removes the Archie stuff but completely game-ifies things to the point it's called Sonic's World. And for Mega Man, once again goes into the future which makes going back to the present after the crossover feel like a regression and spoils how things end. I've read this event before but now I'm noticing more issues with it.
>>460812 Yeah that was whack. It would be one thing if we were dealing with plain stagnation but it got so bad because it reached the point of a full on regression, Tails got worse to how he initially started.
>>460772 You take that back! They were both voiced by my husbando Jason Griffith and their banter is cute! Cute! >>460781 Our threads have been doing fantastic numbers (we're over 3% of all 4/co/ posts and easily the most popular thread). That's gotta make him seethe >>460784 Can't believe I missed that one ;_; >>460788 Would >>460795 >legal Yes_hahaha_yes.png >>460798 We all know it's you doing those 3D renders! >>460800 No worries, take your time >>460814 Not born from mpreg Sonic = not canon! Cute design though >>460822 I still feel bad for the guy that did the render. He's clearly just getting started with 3D models (you don't individually render teeth because it looks weird) and was probably super excited to accept a commission from someone who'd worked on mainstream comics. The redraw looks really nice though >>460835 Yeah, it's all part of their attempt to crack down on spam (read: make you buy a pass). There's also a delay in starting threads if you change IPs, although that's just to stop the vidja butts poster https://arch.b4k.co/_/search/text/Vidya%20butts >>460841 >Making a big deal about him only staying on the island I hate it so much! He's been off the island to participate in 5 car races, 3 hoverboard tournaments, and several Olympic Games!
>>460851 it seems to shows up whenever you have a new session, which means it is there to stop first time posters - usually people using anonymizers or private mode - from immediately making new posts. which would make it an antispam measure. that or hiro just wants to intentionally fuck up the site more to force users to get passbux.

Additional fingerprinting. Cloudflare assigns an extra ID for the user and saves it in a cookie. Many people browse in incognito mode or with cookies disabled, so the cloudflare ID does not show up when posting.
To anyone who says something in the lines of "Don't reply to the schizo", etc, Please Stop. That just ruins threads even more and compells someone to actually do worst. In fact, just stop that in general guys and just ignore if you have to if you feel the urge to say somehthng
>>460863 Not to mention the schizo always replies to himself. It runs completely counter to what everyone says while we're actually covering the topic in the issues. Look at stuff like Sonic and Sally's date or their last kiss or Sally's sacrifice. It's completely opposite to what's going on in the thread now. I'm actually surprised how nearly everyone was pro-Sonally. All the schizo is doing is eating up posts in his usual way.
>>460859 Goodness no, that'd be unethical! Buy a pass! Yeah, that's it exactly, although I'd recommend violentmonkey over tampermonkey. Also, I use the "Install from URL" in violentmonkey so it autoupdates >>460860 Can't post images now in incognito mode >>460863 lmao, sometimes it's the schizo himself that posts those
>>460866 The poster cannot into Sally being a little tsundere and is taking her bad Penders/Max era characterization too seriously.
The way to go with that should've been Sally realizing she was as lost in peace as Sonic was and finding something besides being walled up by her dad to do since the shitty adults who caused the mess took back over.
>>460862 Those types of debate are a complete waste of time and brain cells. They’re the exact same way every time. Someone first then says Amy is a kekqueen, which to my knowledge is not actually what it means in how they use it. Then a lotta arguing with some bit of real discussion but quickly gets drowned out with autism and shitposting. Then as always, Amyfags pull out the “well um she won anyways, so THERE!!!!!”. To a degree, they’re right, they w
>>460871 won or whatever, but knowing that then, what was the fucking point of the bitching and arguing then? Then it just repeats endlessly. Big waste of everyone’s time with that particular thing.
>>460873 A post seriously got deleted? But anyway though, I’ve seen this sort of thing over the years with more than one person in threads. Always the same things.
>>460871 People like repeating themselves, especially in online arguments.
As far as Sonic and Amy goes no one even gets into how there are fundamentally three Amy Roses and the only reason she had so much static with western audiences is how bad Adventure and Adventure 2's voice direction were and Sega inexplicably doubling down on character traits she was never intended to have so strongly because Sega is run by crazy people.
You've got classic-adventure Amy where she's a girl with a crush inspired by Sonic to have her own adventures who gives him shit and, while not above quid pro quo when doing him a favor, is mostly just a nice person who's sincere enough to talk Shadow down from supervillainy.
You've got x-heroes-game boy Amy who's like Akane Tendo without the charm and nuance, who spends her time literally chasing Sonic with a mallet and planning marriage traps. This is the version games-only people tend to fixate on despite largely being a reaction to how Sonic X characterized her.
Then you've got modern-boom-frontiers Amy who, frankly, has some Sally elements worked in: she's willing to give Sonic crap again and has goals and desires outside of literally chasing him. This version doesn't really exist in Japan since they changed her Frontiers story to be about bridal training because idk, i dont fucking know.
>>460874 Yeah TP's post called the Archieschizo. https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/142110000/#142113334
I've always said that when shitposting gets out of control, there's going to be some increased "random" post deletion. It's the same thing that has been happening in our threads for years. Observing habits takes time but if the person has habits and tells then it's easy to see them and expect what will happen. That's why you never talk to him or even talk about him.
>>460874 Yeah, if you call him out (even indirectly) you get a deletion, and if you mention he's a janitor you get banned. Even posting this link is enough to warrant a ban (it's the /sthg/ thread where he outed himself as a janny): https://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/414233664#414242537 Oh, and if you don't use the 4chan ghostpost mixer userscript, I preserve all deleted posts on the website >>460876 >That's why you never talk to him or even talk about him. 100% agree. I still sometimes bait him, even if I really shouldn't
>>460878 Pretty crazy how there’s just some people out to get us and our threads. In the grand scheme, we’re harmless yet some one gets all pissy for whatever reason
>>460879 Schizo's a janitor that is usually in our threads and will shitpost and get their mod friend, who also hates us, to delete anything for any reason. And the other mods don't care and even find it funny we get messed with.
Fella’s, no point arguing on Sonamy and Sonally, when Mordred x Sally is where it at, getting content for it cooked up as we speak…ok half jokes aside find it funny when I dip out the ship arguing starts, used to do a bog amount of that before chilling on it
>>460882 You've just activated my trap card Konductor! Sally's just girl Knuckles so you're tacitly supporting Sonknux, the OTP! Seriously though, they've got a lot in common: * Cute redheads that love fighting with Sonic * Capable leaders burdened by their duty but can always rely on their friends * Sassy pocket-sized companion/advisor * Both have fathers of the year that were thought to have died when they were young, only to come back and shit up their lives * Great destiny awaits them if they'd only do what their fathers say (Source of All/Chaos Force) * Turns out their mothers weren't dead either * Surprise brothers too * Knuckles and Archimedes even played Sally and Nicole in #148
Oh, and Rouge is just girl Sonic: * Confident and hot, with great shoes * Enjoy fighting and flirting with Knuckles * Human women enjoyers * Undisputed top of their profession despite being relatively young * Unburdened by conventional morality, their life's goal is to have fun * Leader of their trio of adventurers * One of the few people Shadow actually respects
>>460888 It's triggered whenever you switch IPs, haven't posted in a while, or whenever cloudflare feels like it
>>460180 Amy's Family 2-24 https://www.deviantart.com/princessgalaxia9 Sally's about to find out just how realistic robo-Sonic is. Please be thorough, I'm itching to put in an order!
In unrelated news, Yugioh D-Stortion is still going and just put out chapter 19 page 7. Only mentioning that because I remember one of our regulars storytimed it. >>460883 >>460884 >>460886 Fun fact: When I first started my comic with the artist, I was telling them about Sonic and Sally being a couple. They asked about Sonic and Amy. I found a collage of Sonic and Sally kissing and being romantic and sent it to them and they understood. >>460885 I think Mordred needs his own girl to corrupt. >>460890 So... Knuxouge?
>>460892 >So... Knuxouge? Sonknux might be my favorite ship, but Knuxouge and Sonally are my favorite canon ships for the games and for Archie. I really do need to storytime all the Furry Bomb doujins, since they've got a Sally x Rouge comic to complete the set!
>>460892 I’m open to ideas of corruptible girls for the snake, wether they be in the series or perhaps oc ideas to develop though already have his followers, Windstarosprey who had interest till backing out on using them with my permission suggested their group be called Venomaidens. Also finally finished Season 3 of Prime, holy shit did it drag, i usually enjoy most Sonic regardless and even if able to at least see the issues like in my Black Knight first run but it was genuinely exhausting and tiring to a point and Nine was such an unlikeble little hypocrite after a while, the action is well done but fighting the same robot doppelgangers for episodes on end was boring
>>460893 Thinking about the two ships for Knuckles had me evaluating how Rouge and Julie-Su would work out in comic form. Knuxouge seems to be a ship that works on paper and in shipping art but not so much given how both characters are. Knuckles is stuck on Angel Island and Rouge is doing whatever everywhere else, occasionally visiting and then leaving. One of them needs to change their habits or it's one of those relationships where if you focused on one of them you wouldn't see the other that much. Freeing Knuckles from Angel Island or having Rouge stay there with him would fix that. Or maybe people like it that they stay separated for long periods of time.
And then there's Julie-Su. I'll give Penders credit for making Angel Island into a place with all sorts of people for Knuckles to interact with. And then he plops in a girl for Knuckles to eventually plap. Funny thing is that Julie-Su barely interacted with Knuckles during Penders' run and Ian had them being a couple more often.
>>460894 Sally's already a coomer's dream so corrupting her isn't that big of a jump for her. Corrupting meek and especially nice girls would be more interesting. Like Relic the Pika or even Amy. There's so much goth and punk Amy art and she looks good in all of that. I know that female self-inserts love having that normal relatable girl get turned into something wilder. Letting loose inhibitions. Not sure if you're okay with someone that likes being corrupted, like a warped version of how Jen likes being She-Hulk.
>>460896 Hmmm Relic could be fun, not really got interest for Amy but that is the obvious choice plus could have her trade in her hammer for a medieval style axe. I remember once jokingly suggesting the idea to Chaoscroc of a Hood Wave just cause the other two rogues dump her in his lap for some Babylon thingy he had at the time though she’s neither meek or nice. Honestly Dulcy could be fun to try though be at odds with some ideas I have regarding Mordred but still actually need to get posted art with a bio/details on my takes like I did Rouge few days ago
>>460896 Rouge and Knuckles is kinda like black cat and spidey to me. She wants to have fun and do iiegal stuff and tries to tempt knuckles to go all out. But Knuckles has his responsibility and his personality stop that thot from getting him. At most, maybe some one night stand thing but any true settling down relationship is just not a thing that could happen between them
Knuxouge shippers def dislike Julie but she set a good way of seeing the best type of person for knuckles to be with than Rouge. Someone he could always trust, and willing to stay with him along with his duty of being a guardian on the angel. Julie and probably shade if they developed her further are great for him. Plus, they're the same species lol, but basically any one who meets those crtieria are perfect for rad red.
Also yeah, I actually like julie from what I read but damn was it frustrating for penders to just sideline her imedaitely for the grandpas and others. Not to mention soul touch BS
>>460856 https://the-ride.neocities.org/threads/142110000.html#142110308 I guess this settles it. I'll cram all the Other place other times comic teasers right after #247 and before Mega Man #24. This is where it makes the most sense, I guess. And that still place them before the reboot where they stem from.
>>460897 When I think corruption, I think the most drastic change. That's what turns heads. >>460898 Peter and Felicia have it better because they work in the same area and aren't stuck 90% of the time in some distant area. Knuckles and Rouge are a fun couple but Angel Island and the Master Emerald is the main thing keeping them apart. I can imagine Angel Island sinking and the Master Emerald being at GUN HQ and Knuckles grudgingly allowing it to be there. They help him guard it and he works for them. And Rouge gets a teammate she can bang whenever they're not on a mission (and sometimes when they are).
>>460901 Maybe but GUN sure as hell would have alterior motives for the ME so Knuckles would always be on edge, ESPICALLY with Rouge there. Like if the island was destroyed, imo he would maybe hide it in another far away remote place, and maybe make his own hidden palace zone as well for extra security
>>460896 Honestly I see game Knuckles as more of a globetrotting treasure hunter who regularly visits his island than a brooding hermit shackled to a magic rock. The island's clearly got enough traps to protect the ME from non-Eggman threats, and Knuckles can sense if it's in danger anyway. As for their relationship, I see them develop a treasure hunting rivalry post-SA2 where they're always running into each other. After a few team ups to stop a bigger threat (and some post-adventure plappings) they'd realize they make a great team and finally admit their feelings. They'd eventually put one of the island's teleporters in Club Rouge so neither would have to give up their lifestyle
The Archie versions of Knuckles and Rouge are a terrible match (for many reasons), so I'm team Julie-Su all the way, even if Knuckles and Julie-Su don't have as big a contrast in their personalities. I actually didn't mind their relationship under Penders (apart from the soultouch nonsense), and there were even a few issues focusing on their relationship that were really cute. I agree they needed more opportunities to interact and that their relationship really blossomed under other writers though
>>460898 That's why I have different ships for different canons! >>460902 Archieschizo's a janny with a very thin skin. When I teased him he got mad and deleted my post
>>460902 TP called out the schizo which is the janny. >>460903 But that's the fun of it. Put Knuckles in a situation he can't easily get out of it for some reason. So he's on edge and over time eases up. Have Tower be straight up and honorable about it. Maybe someone within GUN steals it and Tower apologizes to Knuckles but he can't even be mad because of how many times it happened to him on Angel Island. And Rouge is always there to give him that emotional support that she usually gives Shadow.
Also, it might just be me, but 'speaking of "future generations"...' sound less to me like a potential request, and more like a prelude to an announcement that the bun is already in the oven...
>>460904 >Honestly I see game Knuckles as more of a globetrotting treasure hunter who regularly visits his island than a brooding hermit shackled to a magic rock. The island's clearly got enough traps to protect the ME from non-Eggman threats, and Knuckles can sense if it's in danger anyway. As for their relationship, I see them develop a treasure hunting rivalry post-SA2 where they're always running into each other. After a few team ups to stop a bigger threat (and some post-adventure plappings) they'd realize they make a great team and finally admit their feelings. They'd eventually put one of the island's teleporters in Club Rouge so neither would have to give up their lifestyle That would require a different version of the characters. Sega is really bad at giving Knuckles anything to do and Rouge doesn't seem to get much fleshing out. What continuity or piece of media provides that kind of relationship for them? Or would it have to be an altered adaptation that makes it work? >The Archie versions of Knuckles and Rouge are a terrible match (for many reasons), so I'm team Julie-Su all the way, even if Knuckles and Julie-Su don't have as big a contrast in their personalities. I actually didn't mind their relationship under Penders (apart from the soultouch nonsense), and there were even a few issues focusing on their relationship that were really cute. I agree they needed more opportunities to interact and that their relationship really blossomed under other writers though Yeah they're both serious but that's what makes their relationship cute. Penders did show Julie-Su trying to be a bit more feminine when realizing she had feelings for Knuckles. And Knuckles may not be a bumbling mess like he is in the games when dealing with Rouge but he was also going through a lot of anxiety when realizing he liked Julie-Su. Archie Rouge is such a bad girl that's done some bad things but also really good things.
>>460906 I guess Tower wouldn't treat him that bad as he did turn the place around but there would always be some conflict in organization. but yeah, with rouge sometimes working for the government, she would really be the only person he actually knows there if they set up the ME there. But of course, he would get riled up by any teasing if she checked up on him constanly in any man made altar room for him
>>460928 >they went with the dumb reboot sally hair thing sigh... Will never be a fan of that espically when honey gets nothing like that >>460929 >friendzoned Bruh, not like we had enough of that will they-wont they shit already. Call me a schizo, but I'm low key expecting this comic gonna go with sallicole shit. Say this because othis right here, along with earlier showing a sally heart nicole thing on nicole's handheld AND Nicole's singing sound like a love song. Lmao. Will be honestly dispointed if thats the case. Because when initially following this, author said they werent gonna break up sonic and sally but give them some challenges, maybe this is what they meant. BUt again, i can sorta understand sally saying this because of the trauma. to be more positive I think sally being taller than sonic here is really fucking cute. he's so smole and she could grab him!
>>460931 >but I'm low key expecting this comic gonna go with sallicole shit. Well, they hinted at hit earlier. Still feel a bit like an asspull and in contradiction with what had happened before her roboticization, though.
>they went with the dumb reboot sally hair thing How is it dumb?
Screen of them saying this incase they pretend they didnt and someone thinks i was lying about that claim they made >>460935 I just do not like the behind of her ears looking red. doesnt look good to me. same if they did that with honey. not a fan
>>460938 >I just do not like the behind of her ears looking red. I actually do. As well as the red line in the back. That's the one change I appreciate in her design from the reboot.
>>460936 >>460937 I guess we should all have seen it coming judging by this piece and more stuff ive seen. lmao. Yeah I'm a bit mad, i like sally and sonic together, sue me. bit tired of the keeping apart thing. So seeing that and some warning signs is making me suspicious. Again, maybe this is part of the challenges part which they said BUT i'll be on edge and not fully trusting lol >>460939 Meh, kinda like the red back line but just not a fan of the head change.
>>460937 >They're absolutely doing it and it's just as bullshit as Amy and Techno. Oh yeah that. not many people even remember or know (mostly because no one fucking reads stc) that tekno and shorty were a thing. In stco, even more so. things happened but at a point tekno became a shitty partner and abused shortys trust. Because of shit like that, im of the opinion that tekno should be with him or amy, because she was a fucking bitch in stco. she deserves nothing
>>460930 Actually I retract my statement, this is such an arbitrary thing to do, you are a fan continuation and should at least keep them together if nothing else since the two of them got forcibly split apart just as they got together thanks to mandates
>sally still roboticized in heroes come back and sonic retold >sally deroboticized in aso and still with sonic but she's having a mental breakdown but sonic is there to support her That's the state of things. >>460941 That's a weird situation. IIRC Shorty's creator shipped him with Tekno but another Fleetway writer did that final comic for STCO that had Amy and Tekno be a couple. I can see both.
>>460929 >>460938 >>460940 I'd say, they are playing it as a bit, An I suspect the reason might be that Sally is starting to see a pattern that when they actually get together, something terrible happen soon after.
They might just tease Salicole as a misdirection for the readers, but what I actually fear would be a knee-jerk reactions from some fans that might really be what sour it all.
Could even result in the Forever team to actually change to Salicole to stick it up to those who might over-react to it and where everyone blame the other side.
Now imagining asf is gonna do a thing similar with sally and khan but her with Nicole. Preboot sally coming out as bi and being with nicole for a while before going to sonic, which if does happen would be terrible.. Also forgot shard was in the comic so shard gonna learn the chick he likes is a carpet muncher. Maybe shard will be gay for silver next.

>>460944 It’s just funny that tekno was a fucking cunt in the comic where the lesbian thing happens but no one brings it up. Probably because no one really reads the comic
