>>26463 Is Shadow being on a mission the best time for a love confession? THINK SONIC THINK! >>26512 She's drawn a decent number of SFW stuff and it is for the unfortunately forgotten not-porn Sonic United. But the image is a little slutty.
If it wasn’t for the Nocturnus Clan taking over, Fiona would’ve grown up to be a spoiled princess using her authority to get what she wanted. But being Finitevus’ lackey has made her cling to the belief she’ll one day reclaim her title and privileges that come with it. It’s the only keeping her going (her reliance on Scourge has diminished over the years). AI Fiona knows that she doesn’t have a birthright so she dreams of establishing something new. And she desires to have a partner to help her achieve that. She sees promise in Belle, not to mention a kindness she can’t help but like, and decides to teach her to be a proper lady. And dress her up. And there’s other things about this page that could be talked about. But since this is all happening in another universe and not a series, you’ll have to settle for this page and block of text explaining some things. It’s still good to check in every once in a while.
>>26526 That was the shelved story. Hope being a clone of Maria, Dr. Droid (STOP TRYING TO GET US TO CARE ABOUT HIM PENDERS) carrying her away with the end looking like AI art. Stupid bullshit Also, Ian and Tracy are not happy with him as they both asked to not be in this, but were added anyway.
>>26536 >Slightly curvy woman >OOOIIII LOOOKIT HOW OBESE AND CORPULENT THIS WOMAN IS, AS A 4CHAN USER I'M TOTALLY THE ABRITER OF WHAT A HEALTHY BODY TYPE IS
Another player for the next arc has been introduced! Hunter is a Knuckles villain that became a major threat when he was working for Eggman. In this series he’s working for another Robotnik. Not only that but he has a nifty new ability! But I thought only mobians had these kinds of powers. Find out why and more in the Sonic & Knuckles Adventure arcs!

https://x.com/TailsChannel/status/2073177151751196731 >Breaking: Announced at Anime Expo, Sonic the Hedgehog: Memories and Beyond is a new animated series produced for Sonic's 35th Anniversary. >Here's a sneek peek at some footage.
When this was planned as a single issue story, while Knuckles was fighting Kage, Lara-Le fought against Stryker. Lara-Le would lose against Stryker because she was inexperienced as a fighter. Knuckles got incredibly angry and ended up beating both Kage and Stryker. The story has drastically changed from that.

Time for another comic check in where I look up comics that we used to cover but haven't heard from for a while: >super sonic go go and team chaotix detective agency haven't updated in over a year >sonic boom revisited still hasn't started a new issue >tgt hasn't updated since may >adventures of sonic the hedgehog (the one based off of the cartoon not the other one) is slowly updating and the latest chapter should be finished in a few pages >the adventures of sonic the hedgehog is still slowly putting out pages for the third chapter >sonic frenzy is still updating and we should do some kind of catch up on that >little flames by krazyelf had its third chapter put out last week so i'll get to covering that next friday >broken future is still updating but i don't know if i'm going to bother with it >silver gets a chao hasn't updated in a while >sonic god complex hasn't updated in a while >black licorice hasn't updated since april >it's been over 3 years since the last page of sonic retold was posted >archie sonic online still puts out an issue every few months >sonic legacy hasn't put out any progress for the 16th issue in months >silver 1776 is fucking dead >sonic vs goku has some pages i should get around to posting but that hasn't updated in some months >if anyone cares, sonic begins aka shock and awe is still updating
>>26643 And Eclipse is still updating. I don't know what to do about that series. It wasn't bad but I kind of don't want to redo the whole thing but feel it'd be kind of necessary since it's been so long. Definitely deserving of its own thread but I'm starting to feel doing that is a curse that will lead to it going into an indefinite hiatus. That first started with Sonic Future a while back.
>>26640 The Heart Never Lies Here's hoping Sonic can be of use for this secret and likely important mission that was carefully researched and planned for by people that don't know he bumbled his way into.
Sonic the Hedgehog 35th Anniversary Special https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/154565290/sonic-the-hedgehog-35th-anniversary-special https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/154565290 Props to the person posting before the funposter storytimer got to it.
>>26669 Finally got around to reading it. It's a story alright. I don't think bringing in almost every classic character was necessary but at least stuff was happening. It's a low bar but one a lot of IDW issues couldn't clear that. I'm betting TP would add a point to his score because of Sonic constantly trying to be Knuckles' best friend.
>>26684 She is never going to wash out that filth. And even if she gets more adventures in her home, there is the scary possibility they would shove him in. It would truly be over for her if that happened.
>>26686 >>26687 I feel you. I just don't understand why they keep doing this. It was a bad writing decision, but someone is approving this to continue.
>>26690 I don't like bitching about this but I genuinely keep having to. I absolutely hate when a character I really like is forever burdened with one I absolutely can't stand, happened to Poison Ivy also. It is just utterly exhausting and it sucks since Blaze perfectly can work as an independent character alongside her more genuine dynamic with Cream or Marine that gets neglected mostly.
>>26691 Your complaints are valid. And even with her own neglect, Blaze was still more successful in showing how she can be independent. In comparison, Silver is a failure who needs to latch on to be relevant
>>26639 Forgot to include the Tamers tier I see, for shame! >>26643 I am so far behind ;_; >>26655 It's cool seeing how they went from Wizeman to what we ended up with >>26659 lmao >>26683 >I'm betting TP would add a point to his score because of Sonic constantly trying to be Knuckles' best friend. Fact check: true! The story's written by Iasmin Ata, who did the story where Sonic sits on the Master Emerald and flirts with Knuckles so you know the Sonknux content will be plentiful! The thread was pretty dead, but then I wouldn't expect much from current year 4chan. I can't believe Boco's still alive >>26684 I 100% lay the blame at Evan for ruining Silver's characterization so badly that so many people dislike him. It was fine having Silver be a timid owo ditz with weak powers in her own comic, but that is just not how he's depicted in the game. I've said it before, but The Vulture is far closer to Silver's canon personality than anything we've gotten from Archie or IDW
One of the Archie Sonic Alumni, Jay Axer has come out as trans. Which seeing as they were drawing Jax before the announcement, it is not a big surprise lol Good for them if it makes them happy. Though I would love to see them do some more Sonic work again.
Finitevus is one step closer to achieving his goal. Whatever that exactly is. And a mention of his god? Mephiles sure has been busy lately! And it’s finally revealed that Finitevus is the one being quoted at the end of Notes #12. Little by little, more of those notes have been covered.
>>26779 >Invisible Gang Beating >Getting Kunais in the head & chest >Conquering Storm letting you have just enough time to regret your choices in life >Pressure Point Murder Poor bastards
>>26780 Finitevus reminds me of The End with the goal of order which they ironically try to achieve through destruction. Which is always an interesting dichotomy, though Finitevus did that better IMO, as his views were tied to society and its failings.
>>26784 >>26783 Fini being the living hubris of Echidna Bullshit was great and kind of a nice parallel to Knuckles, who experienced the Bullshit firsthand and wanted to clean it up compared to Finitevus purging it with fire.
>>26791 I'm willing to bet these "editors" are only patrons but I have seen with other comics there are multiple editors. Sometimes several of them. You know what comics need more than editors?
>>26800 That's great news! But this is Udon so I will keep my expectations low but not too low. If Mega Man does well then maybe Sega will notice and PFFFFHAHAHAHA... I made myself sad...
I'd also be down for an Archie Mega Man thread on this board since it's technically a Sonic series in the loosest sense. In the age of excessive crossovers that means very little but Archie Mega Man is canon to Archie Sonic.
>>26803 Call me nostalgic but it felt more special back then because it wasn't happening all at the same time with everything. Godzilla has been crossing over with everything for multiple years and still going and other franchises have been following suit. It's not all bad now but it feels too much. >>26804 Archie Mega Man needs a second chance but I wonder how long it'll go. I don't even know what's been going on with the other Mega Man stuff under Udon.
>>26919 Reminds me of a joke I wanted to do. >game sonic: i sleep in a race car bed! do you? >king sonic: i sleep in a bed with my wife >queen sally: (annoyed) it's also a race car bed
https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/154689070/storytime-mighty-mouse-mices-on-infinite-earths Two years before Archie Sonic started, Michael Gallagher wrote this. Always interesting to see writers and artists working on non-Sonic stuff. I wonder how pun heavy this is.
>>26788 Sonic the Continuation I was wondering why Shadow was fighting Biolizard in the past but I realized this wasn't going to happen in the present.
>It’s happening, folks. Udon Entertainment has officially announced that they will continue Archie Comics’ Mega Man series under the Mega Man Adventures banner.
>The new comic will pick up directly after issue #55 and begin an adaptation of Mega Man 4. Future issues will carry two numbers to reflect both runs, meaning the first installment will be released as both Archie’s issue #56 and Udon’s issue #0.
>The comic will be written by Ian Flynn with artwork by Chad Thomas and is currently targeting a November or December 2026 release.
>>27040 >Dr. Wily: Bass. Put the word out there, we're back up. >>27041 Agreed. Also Anyone has that Sally/Rosie art with them saying "Your dick doesn't know the difference?"
>>27045 Thanks! Also funny story ideas >Amy, thanks to her poor eyesight, mistakes Sally & Rosie constantly. Cue hijinx. >We find out that one Rosie trainers/senior agent was a MILF(now GILF) named Sally. She's just human Rosie(the Chipmunk) with a dash of Julayla
A city under siege! War waged in the streets! A planet on the verge of being conquered by an outside force! Finitevus shifts his focus to Knuckles! Which guardian will come out on top? Depending on who it is, this comic might have to change its name!
Sally is gone. Naugus is more powerful than ever. And Sonic is on his own. Or is he? Also, the origin of Naugus and the events leading to the disappearance of Mobotropolis! In song form???
>>27062 So Naugus was his own guy with the fire? I like how he got it in Archie, those guys went to the SUN, its distance from Mobius being 93 million miles, which they traveled to in seconds. Aside how insane it is, I love how afterwards, he went to the Acorns. Who they just trusted to work for them.
>How do you time travel? >I don't fucking know, some plot convenient portal pops up so they can keep forcing me into stories We've been told this before but I laughed at how bad it really sounds.
>>27059 It's Chomps! >>27060 It's always refreshing to see Sonic characters with jaws instead of mouth stickers >>27061 Yeah, IDW (allegedly!) uses review bots, just not very good ones >>27062 Glad to see you kept their original designs. I always thought it was interesting that you could have different levels of anthrofication for the same species so there'd be people like this bat guy and Rouge >>27066 This is such bullshit, these "time portals" that no one ever sees or mentions in the games are just as dumb as Flynn's two worlds idea. I am so frustrated by Evan (and make no mistake it WAS Evan) fucking up the most basic of game lore to fit her GotF fancomic. For those that don't know, before the Archie reboot she had already added her time portal lore from GotF and was going to expand on it by having Gold, Silver and Schlemmer going on adventures through randomly appearing time portals Sliders-style.
Silver witnessed Mephiles opening a time portal in 06, and was able to replicate it using chaos control with Shadow in the same game so time travel has always been something he can do (it's even listed as a specific ability in one of his old Sonic Channel wallpapers).
While he couldn't choose the destination in 06, he could in Rivals, where he's purposefully going back to stop the Ifrit. Silver doesn't just go back to save the future, he went back in Colo(u)rs DS to see the amusement park's future exhibit, brought his own extreme gear in Zero Gravity, and traveled through time and space after he received Dodon Pa's invitation. These are not just Silver randomly getting sucked into a time portal. Does anyone seriously think Silver is just randomly dressed in his Riders outfit with his extreme gear every time a time portal randomly appears and sends him to an extreme gear tournament?
I get that Evan probably doesn't play the games, but even in the Forces prequel comic Silver states he's come back in time because according to the historical record some bad shit was going down. Hilariously, he even purposely travels back to the present in IDW to stop the metal virus. This is the comic Evan is the lead fucking writer on! My take: Sega's just going to ignore this like they do with everything else that the Sonic Lore Team™ puts out
>>27075 Time travel, more times than not, is a messy form of writing. The time portals are supposed to be a "fix" to the method achieved by the emeralds, as even being slightly more precise to choose when causes issues. Not that the new explanation doesn't either. Silver just invites bad writing since these problems are inherently part of his concept.
Finitevus’ plan ramps up as the Nocturnus Clan begins taking over Albion! But that’s only part of it! His real goal lies in what he wants to do with Knuckles! A guardian’s true power will be revealed as well as a secret that even Finitevus didn’t anticipate! Is Knuckles a greater threat than his Modius counterpart?
Sonic #88 https://boards.4chan.org/co/thread/154915498/idw-sonic-issue-88 https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/154915498 It's been almost two months since the last issue.
With all the big stuff happening in the upper levels of Castle Acorn, Elias is getting ready to help. But for him to do that, he’ll need an edge of some kind. How about a magical sword? But what about the “Sword of Acorns” that King Max is using? Armand, Antoine’s father, can lend a hand. But sadly not two hands.

Let's see what Penders has been up to over on the Twitter dawt com >penders finally concedes that remington's into guys >it's geoffrey My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
>>27076 Primer and Terminator 1 & 2 are the only films I can think of that go beyond the standard H.G. Wells' The Time Machine plot and do something interesting with time travel that's also self-consistent. The TV Show Travelers is also highly underrated. I'll give 06 a pass since despite how messy it got, was almost completely self-consistent. >Silver just invites bad writing since these problems are inherently part of his concept. Sonic lives for adventure, Knuckles protects his home, Tails supports his friend, and Shadow honors his promise. What exactly does Silver do? I think if they hadn't canceled Silver's game they'd have likely set him up as the guy who protects the timeline. It really is a shame we're stuck stuck with a half- fleshed out character that doesn't really have a central purpose. It also doesn't help that we never get to see much about his time >>27077 lmao, I can't exactly blame you since they're a great artist with a fantastic sense of humor >>27078 >Is Knuckles a greater threat than his Modius counterpart? You really should swap out Finitivus for Irish Knuckles with a beret half way through with absolutely no explanation >>27089 >the six panel comic drawn by a literal child in the fanart section is more engaging than the actual comic That's our IDW! >>27092 They'll probably pull a Die Hard and make the big reveal that it's Starline's brother who's also a villain for some reason. Won't we all feel stupid for thinking it's Starline then! >>27093 >SatFF issue 10 >KatC issue 5 Give it a few more years and you'll have outpaced IDW! >>27156 Looks like someone needs to slap™ some sense into Whisper! >>27166 Someone on Sonic Prime's writing team definitely knew about this comic >>27241 I was wondering why he had Geofrrey and Remington hang out in TLSC ;_; >>27242 Penders is a huge fan of Sean Connery's James Bond (some of his earliest art was of making his own Bond posters) and his intention was always to have Geoffrey be the skunk version of him. Of course, he's not the best at writing suave characters so Geoffrey just comes across as an asshole
Finitevus isn’t going to have much of an advantage in a fist fight with Knuckles but he doesn’t seem to mind. Meanwhile, Julie-Su and Lien-Da are having a very heated sister-sister talk.

Project Hero got a new release with Rewired. It's a nice short thing to play, though it is easy to fly over everything since the ported levels are not built for the movement. Also, look who I found, giggling to himself!
https://x.com/soniccitynet/status/2089742232572043323 >AIPT has released six advance pages from IDW Sonic the Hedgehog #89, featuring the debut appearance of Blackwood the Ermine. 👀
Another note coming true. I said there was going to be a musical. Poor Sonic can’t stop Naugus from singing! And why can’t Naugus fully use his ill-gotten gains?
>>27281 I don't know if Okida ships Sonic with anyone Actually there's that old Sonic/Tekno porn comic. Not sure about Amy although Tekno is a likely candidate so maybe a triple. But I haven't seen any romance involving them in the main comic. All I remember is an old ask comic where Amy still showed interest in Sonic. >>27282 >>27283 Based!
The leaders of both factions working together. Comparing this to my previous idea for the confrontation between Lara-Le and Stryker, I feel this is much better.
>>27246 As much as I enjoy Archie Sonic, trying to make sense of the convoluted mess that is Knuckles' plot was always my favorite part. It's easy to criticize Penders for the stilted and formal dialogue and bizarre plot choices, but the weird mashup of Superman, Star Wars, that daytime telenovella he got many of his plot and character names from, Marvel, and Star Trek made for some really interesting plots >>27264 I like to joke about IDW spending too much time on domestic plots instead of action ones but this is ridiculous! >>27276 lmao, he's even absorbed her singing ability. Move over Sally, Naugus is best girl now! >>27284 >spoiler >>>/pco/470523 >>27404 Off to visit Penders I see! If he wasn't such a chode about even the most minor deviations to his grand vision, I think he'd genuinely enjoy your take on things >>27405 But(t)ler presents: The Slap™ >>27406 It took me a while to realize you weren't referring to Sally as a goddess ;_; >>27409 Ahem, what about mai waifu and objective best (human(?)) girl!?
>>27412 >As much as I enjoy Archie Sonic, trying to make sense of the convoluted mess that is Knuckles' plot was always my favorite part. It's easy to criticize Penders for the stilted and formal dialogue and bizarre plot choices, but the weird mashup of Superman, Star Wars, that daytime telenovella he got many of his plot and character names from, Marvel, and Star Trek made for some really interesting plots I think Penders did a good job building a world that revolved around Knuckles. Even if he was sidelined for Penders' OCs. Sonic's a weird case because he's the protagonist but his stories are mainly about him going on adventures and meeting new people. Archie gave him the most when it came to a family and past but even then it wasn't all about him. Even in the games all his chosen one feats are one and done with not much explanation. Sonic and Sally really do fit together because Sonic gets to be Sonic and Sally gets all extra stuff to keep the plot going. Thinking about a purely Sonic focused series, where he has a family, is royalty, has a specific goal, and with prophecies that are always with him reminds me of one continuity that did all of that. Sonic Underground.
https://x.com/sonicstadium/status/2092424039507628327 >BREAKING: Rovio Copenhagen, the studio behind Sonic Blitz, has been closed along with the game's cancellation. #SonicNews
>20 employees had been working on the game, and there will be attempts to reassign employees to elsewhere in the company after a redundancy process.
>Sega West COO and Rovio CEO Alex Pelletier-Normand told @mobilegamerbiz that Sonic Blitz was canceled because player retention didn't meet expectations. They thought that the combination of fast paced gameplay and a collectible card meta would "please Sonic fans"
>He had this to say about Sonic's future on mobile, "I still am convinced that there is a way to reach more players on mobile with Sonic, it turns out that it’s much more complicated than I think both Sega and Rovio thought." Isn't this that mobile game that people said had data for Archie characters to be in it?
>>27430 They killed the studio just because of archie! Jokes aside it did have them in it for some reason. Though I doubt they would've made it in the final release.
I like how they look but I have some concerns. So Shadow is going to be in the next movie. This is kind of a problem because he is a such a spotlight hog, and this is the movie for the two new characters. Even if they cut more time away from Knuckles and Tails, Shadow's inclusion is going to steal some from Amy / Metal Sonic just for being in it. I liked Shadow in 3, but he might just be a negative for 4.
>>27239 >>27244 >>27241 NGL, I'd totally read a RemingtonXGeoffrey fic where Remington is all stoic and businesslike while Geoffrey is bratty and teasing.
