>>25950 That's all for today

>>25949 Surge looks cute with her hair quills? down. That toothy smile is adorable too.

This story feels like it's gone on forever. I suppose the break to publish the Fang miniseries didn't help. Anyway I don't like the idea of Surge becoming good. We already have so many evil Sonics that turned good. They're called Knuckles and Shadow. Also, Sonic but not evil is just Sonic. If Scourge had turned into a good guy, he'd have become lame. If anything, Surge should become a lot more evil. That would keep her interesting. But of course we can't have an actually evil female character. That was rare even back in the day. Now? Gotta just have her sit around and eat cupcakes with Tangle and Whisper. That will be so much more interesting.

>>25970 The end!!! Thoughts?

>>25946 It's disappointing that they chose this artificially made up situation that came out of nowhere and had no build up to have Jewel confront Clutch. >>25948 There's this big fight and I have no idea what anyone actually wants. >>25952 That character works a lot better than it has any right to. >>25954 >This story feels like it's gone on forever Maybe, but at least it's gotten a lot more interesting. Yeah, I'm not sure how Surge becoming good would work with her character, but it's kinda tempting to make her turn good nonetheless.

>>25972 >it's kinda tempting to make her turn good nonetheless. Why?

>>25973 Because it's a cool character with an interesting personality and a bad past, so it makes you empathize and care for them and then it's natural to want them to be nice and it's very pleasant when someone with a story like that succeeds in turning their life around.

>>25974 But it's been done too many times and would make the character boring. Would you have wanted Scourge to become good?

>>25975 I was just explaining why it's tempting. I also said I wasn't sure how her character would work in such a scenario. It'd probably water it down a lot.

>>25962 Ah, shit, I thought this was going to be the next issue of the current arc. >>25963 >sonic cycle thing I haven't heard of this in years, they did it on purpose didn't they. >>25966 >to be continued in Sonic 80 <we're on Sonic 73 right now Nigger there's fuck all chance I'm going to remember this shit half a year from now, what's the fucking point? >>25967 It's so weird seeing Whisper acting so out of character. >>25971 The last story was okay I guess. Failed artists are dangerous man.

>>25978 >I haven't heard of this in years, they did it on purpose didn't they.

>>25975 >>25977 I think you could do an interesting thing where she wants to become a hero but also she continues to hate Sonic and is ready to fight him on sight.

>>25980 That seems to be what they're doing, but even there that's barely different than Knuckles or Shadow. How many times has Knuckles fought Sonic on sight? Like seven or eight just in the games alone. If I was writing the comics from where they are right now, I'd have this arc be that Surge is trying to become good, maybe she has some urge for good inside her, but her hatred for Sonic and spite against the world in general keeps her from realizing that potential. The evil inside her needs to win for the sake of keeping her from being a fucking boring character. I like the concept of the character, because I liked Scourge, but this series really, really doesn't need yet another evil Sonic that turns good. Hell, even Emerl is arguably pretty close to this concept. And the comics and stuff have even more, like Turbo, and I'm sure a few others that I'm forgetting.

>>25975 >>25981 I agree with you anon, I'm sick and tired of Vegeta/Piccolo tier character arcs, too many characters in this series already fit that description.

>>25985 Hell, in Dragon Ball Tenshinhan was that before Piccolo, and Yamcha even earlier. But critically, those characters all became irrelevant jokes. Flynn shouldn't repeat that mistake.

>>25986 >Tenshinhan More or less >Yamcha No argument here >Piccolo

>>25987 I think you're forgetting just how useless Piccolo became to the plot after training Goten and Trunks to fuse. I'm not saying he isn't the best character, I'm saying that he barely does anything for most of the final arc.
