Also, it looks like Free Comic Book Day is joining the crossover as well, with Worlds Collide Part 0:

Yakko Warner is in SU #47.

 

Sonic Universe #50 sounds amazing. Maybe we'll get a model (besides Shard) that lasts more than an issue again...?

 

Huhwhat?! explain.

 

Haha! I don't keep up with the comics, but that is very cool.

 

"...lack of interruption..."

A Sonic '06 joke, Flynn? Cheeky, real cheeky when you could have used another phrase that wouldn't have sounded as weird in the dialogue.

+ - "There will be no more interruptions."  

 

Jab at '06's loading times. But that's an enormous stretch; I doubt it's a reference to anything.

 

Apparently no one got the memo you shouldn't copypaste on CGI art and then awkwardly paint in the remaining characters.

 

Wow. That's just really, really bad.

 

In Sonic 06 the second time Silver fights Sonic, Silver is all "this time, there will be no more interruptions!".

But it's still a stretch so uh

 

Spoiler

yeah. My last lingering thread of hope for this comic just died whilst reading the #244 spoliers.

Ian's just wiped out the entire Echidna population, including Julie-Su and Saffron. I couldn't care less about the echidna's, but I really liked Saffron.

Okay yeah, it might be all 'alright' by the end of the arc, but this is just poor writing.

 

Nice job not spoiler-tagging the spoilers there, guy. Not everyone's read the issue yet.

Spoiler

From what I've heard, they've been just warp ringed, right? Like the Rob thing, it's just an "out of the way unless Archie/Sega says otherwise" thing, not completely dead. Sucks, but not the end of the world. Even if people started getting the issue in on Friday.

Though I guess that means I was wrong about thinking they wouldn't just remove them between issues. Welp.

 

Spoiler

Damn, I just looked into what happens in 244, that is some heavy stuff, poor Knuckles. Also we shouldn't actually call them dead since it sounds like he didn't kill them, rather he just moved them into some zone, possibly the same one The Brotherhood of Guardians are in. Also I didn't know the whole Penders thing got settled last month, I just found this out, could that be the reason why Julie-Su is apparently dead or was this planned all along? I'm not complaining though, I think it's a very nice twist.

 

Fuck's sake would you stop whining? Given the circumstances, Ian's done all he could to keep them around.

Spoiler

They've been sent somewhere with a warp ring, likely the twilight cage.

 

How are any of these comments "whining"? I think people are just shocked.

Spoiler

Writing out an entire species, whether they're actually dead or were warped somewhere else, is pretty ballsy if you ask me. I'm not really surprised that this happened, though. I thought they were already toast considering Albion was destroyed in #241.

 

Spaz drew and colored each characters + background. There's no CGI there.
