    It's disturbing to think that Ken has put this level of thought into it, and he was officially licensed to make Sonic content. Archie and by proxy Sega were paying him, and not some furries on Patreon.

    If he really wants to get this kind of attention, he should draw this crap and post it.

    Slice of life visual novel, coming soon...?
    Please don't give him ideas. Penders making porn is the only way this situation could get any worse.

    16? That's much different from Flynn's take on the story, where Sally loses her virginity at 40 to the giant Special Zone panda

    As soon as I saw the tweets, I knew this thread would be bumped.

    Got nothing to add really. Penders out-Pender'd himself to such a degree that I already miss when he was just the Jack Thompson of Sonic comics.

    This is Penders on Steroids, All Systems Full Power: Edition, sitting next to you on the train showing you his darkest "Get a Load of Thiss" fanfics then calling you a prude when you call the cops.

    It's no use Twitter. Give up. He's already won. He snapped those fingers and my sanity doesn't feel so good-

    Look on the brightside, the Sonic the Hedgehog movie is now looking miles better thanks to it not having statutory I AM A SUPER FUNNY SHITSTAIN with a self-insert OC skunkboy. No matter how bad that movie is, we can say for certain it's better than Ken Penders.

    Edit: I guess the R word is censored here even when used in the correct context.

    Sometimes I lay awake at night wondering how Penders managed to get a job in the first place.

    Now that there have been some posts after my own, it is time to share one of Penders's tweets that, perhaps more than any other one, showcases the quintessential essence of the man:

    My only comment about politics vis-à-vis Penders is that it is impossible to avoid politics when looking through his Twitter feed as they represent every other tweet of his (usually alternating with art-related ones). This one was just an excellent blend of those two worlds.

    More to come, but later. We need pace ourselves for maximum enjoyment.

    I'll interject at this point as you're new and point out we have a no politics rule across the board - please keep that in mind.

    I'm.....honestly totally dumbfounded that anyone manages to actually still be surprised by the things he says and does at this point.

    What relevance and power does he still hold for anyone to care at this point? He's not involved in the series, the characters he took are in a comic coming at a rate of one panel a year, and he's full of terrible ideas no one wanted to deal with a decade ago. As someone who never cared for the pre-Flynn comics, what's the appeal of giving this broken man attention?

    making cool music no one gives a shit about
    i keep thinking im at that point and then he manages to top himself somehow.

    i mean obviously he's playing shit up because he likes seeing all y'all freak out about it / the attention in general, but it's still gaggy as hell

    Remember, Archie Comic lost to this dude in a court of law. This timeline is wild.

    I still can't believe that happened.

    I'm someone who wasn't all that into the Archie comics but man when I heard about Ken Penders suing, winning the case, and basically caused the comic to implode which caused it to be rebooted I was all ears. I wanna say that was started because of Sonic Chronicles? But anyways as the recent tweets, I shake my head at the sheer lunacy of it He doesn't seem to understand why the whole Sally/Geoffry thing rubs people in the wrong way and just continued to just dig himself deeper into the hole. I guess that is normal for him though? I have no clue really as I don't pay him that much attention.

    Of course, you do all realize that almost certainly Penders is participating in this thread as an alias...

    Jack shit.
    Yeah, it started because of Chronicles (Penders will probably say it started with Adventure). It's because Penders did the whole ancient echidnas thing waaay before Adventure came out and was suspicious. But that was a Sonic Team game and therefore Japanese.

    Cue to the time Chronicles had come out and while Penders was long gone he had brought back Knuckles family from a pocket dimension and stuff and had all this lore, then Bioware comes around and what they did was bring back ancient echidnas from a pocket dimension and Penders lost his lost his shit.

    The comic rebooted with #252, the Archie Kickstarter failed and then the Archie comic started selling gangbusters and then Sonic and MegaMan were canceled due to them not needing them anymore plus the general Penders bullshit.

    I'm pretty sure I remember sales for Sonic still being higher than the Archie reboot. It was only taken away from Archie because of the lawsuit so Sega took the license then IDW got it. Mega Man got cancelled, yeah. But it wasn't selling super well to begin with. Nothing to do with the Archie reboot.

    Jack shit.
    I feel like Archie didn't fight for it though. But hey, I stopped reading a little ways into the reboot.

    Reading it? Maybe.

    Participating? Nah. Putting aside the fact the man's ego is so large there's no way he'd not be able to use his actual name, do you see anyone defending the loonball in here?
