>>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.

IDW Sonic 74# Storytime!!!

>>25994 That's all for today!! See you in two months for the conclusion.

>>25995 Why two months? The last page there says "next month."

>>25995 That was a fun one, hope the conclusion is good too. I think this is the first good ending I remember to an arc in this comic. >>25996 This, I don't want to wait 2 months.

>>25997 >That was a fun one, hope the conclusion is good too. I think this is the first good ending I remember to an arc in this comic. Naw. Master Overlord was way cooler. I wanna go back to arcs that are much more about Sonic and actual game characters, not arcs that focus on a bunch of OCs. It's practically more focused on OCs than back in the Archie days, and at least a lot of those OCs were from the cartoon.

IDW Sonic the Hedgehog: Knuckles' 30th Anniversary Special storytime!!!

>>26005 Happy birthday Knuckles!!! Thoughts?

>>26006 Those covers are awful.

>>26007 They have Knuckles on them so they're good

>>26008 Would've prefered something more elaborate. Like your first picture. That's really neat.

>>26007 I dislike them because I feel that to get the art to look like that it must have taken a lot of effort, but the art itself doesn't end up being very attractive. With some inspiration something so much better could have been created using the same amount of effort.
