QUICKLY. SONIC IS ABOUT TO FALL VICTIM TO THE SPIKE GLITCH IN SONIC 1. TO SAVE HIM, YOU HAVE TO NAME YOUR FAVORITE VOCAL TRACK FROM THE ENTIRE SONIC FRANCHISE.

>What is the most likely scenario? Reboot again from #1, world is game centric, cartoon characters and OCs are included but given less focus (for example, Freedom Fighters are treated more like Honey and Breezie in post-reboot Archie).
>What is your most wanted scenario? Exactly that, but with them releasing a completed trade of Mega Drive and someone leaking the Bunnie/Blaze comic.
Julian Harris

Matthew Cox
Game-centric reboot for both.
Levi Gray

Oliver Smith
>What is the most likely scenario? GAmes only, hard reboot >What is your most wanted scenario? A comic that mostly adheres to the games and plays it safe for a while. After a year or two, they announce Sonic Legacy, which basically picks up from where Archie Sonic left off
And they rerelease the first two Mega Drives an cap it off with Overdrive
Henry Gomez
>most likely Hard reboot, massive focus on just the main four, arcs with plots like the SA games, nice art and fairly innoffensive material.
>Most wanted FF manage to hold on, more focus on side characters like Knuckles and Shadow, and character interation like Cream and Rouge etc, overarching plot with Eggman
David Torres
>What is the most likely scenario? Fresh reboot.
>What is your most wanted scenario? Crossover with another IDW Brand. Hopefully not horses

Source? If that's the case, then the comics would have already dropped the FFs before, meaning it would save work to draw them while gaining more profit, especially when this were at the time SEGA weren't supervisioning the comics.
>What is the most likely scenario? Rotor won't come back.
>What is your most wanted scenario? Rotor will come back, with bonus of being more inclined to game material than comic exclusive material.
Brandon Fisher
HAHAHA This man now can't touch the Sonic comics after this. Yeah, Archie's fucked, but that's just Archie being affected now, the stupid fuckers. I hope ABT, Hesse, Flynn, Baker etc all know where to get other work. Lucky they're freelancers really, can't get affected too much if the company goes down the shitter.
Jack Bailey
GET FUCKED, FAN FICTION WRITER
Levi Young
SEGA already said they like the comics as a separate continuity, so that's not happening.
The most likely scenario is gonna be comedy-centric plotlines that last, at most, two issues. It'll be styled much like the MLP comics. Expect Teen Titans Go-esque material.
Joseph Smith
Hurst is laffing at you in the Void you hack
Jordan Garcia
>The most likely scenario is gonna be comedy-centric plotlines that last, at most, two issues. Then it should be a Sonic Boom book.

So let me get this straight.
>Sonic comic is rebooting under IDW >But fan-favorite creators like Flynn are probably coming back >And they never have to worry about Penders again because he was only fucking things up due to Archie incompetance
Am I missing anything important?
Austin Russell
>SEGA already said they like the comics as a separate continuity, so that's not happening. "Game-centric" being the same as the post-reboot Archie comic, where the world is the world of the games with all the game locations, instead of a completely different world like in the cartoons or pre-reboot comics.

Benjamin Hill
>Most likely Reboot world similar to Archie Post-SGW continuity. Freedom Fighters exist but are in similar position to other cartoon imports and game B-listers (Chaotix, Breezie, etc.)
>Most wanted Same continuity with some way of getting people up to speed without expecting them to read all the Archie stuff.
Grayson Sullivan

Noah Hill
Well, they got Sonic Boom for that stuff. Say what you will about Sega, but at least now they have their tones spread out. So like Boom has comedy one plot per episode fun, X was Animu, Games are now pretty bland but predictable for kids, and the comic had the crap for the older readers who wanted more story.
I think if they're going to be doing the comic, it won't be like Archie with the 50 issue arcs, but it'll be a bit more serious than the games.
Josiah Thomas
>Sonic comic is rebooting under IDW We don't know if they are rebooting, we just know they will be making a Sonic book. >But fan-favorite creators like Flynn are probably coming back They are speaking to them, no guarantees. >And they never have to worry about Penders again because he was only fucking things up due to Archie incompetance Depends if they reprint Archie stuff or not.
Aiden Richardson
NO! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! KNUCKLES IS MINE! MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE!!! JUST YOU WAIT, IDW! JUST YOU FUCKING WAIT!
William Anderson
I appreciate your filenames.

Post YFW Ken Penders can never have influence on Sonic in any way ever again.

>separate continuity does this mean we can go full autism with old legally owned parts of the franchise as well as new shit? I never really got a chance to read the comics yet but I really liked Gold's, Finitevus', Nicole's, and the fish people designs.
Jayden Russell
his reaction to this will be interesting. you can't blame him for being spiteful towards archie comics considering how shitty that company has been. let's see if he resents the comic itself for moving on without him
Leo Rodriguez

Would you actually get angry if they did a MLP crossover? I actually think it'd be cool if they handle it properly.
Joseph Richardson

Mason Martin
I'm sure this question was asked in the previous thread but I'll ask it.
If Sonic was to Crossover with another IDW comic...which would it be and why?
Matthew Wood
>What is the most likely scenario? Fresh reboot focusing on Sonic/Tails/Eggman, occassionally featuring other friends/antagonists.
>What is your most wanted scenario? Tied closer to the games, picking up with the idea of the Resistance fighting against Eggman, with more focus on side characters than Sonic.
At the very least, give us a Sonic Universe reboot for that. The Sonic comics are always at their best when Sonic isn't the protagonist.
Hunter Powell
>does this mean we can go full autism with old legally owned parts of the franchise as well as new shit? Ian has mentioned on a few recent Bumblekasts that SEGA only really likes what's current with Sonic and are not keen on touching older properties like X or the OVA.
Juan Wood
idk probably open your heart but i'm not sure how does this save him though?
Easton Foster
Have there been horses in Sonic before? Are they more like Horace Horsecollar or like MLP style?
Brandon Butler
Hopefully none, at least for like 30 issues so the sonic comic can get off the ground
Sebastian Diaz
Hopefully Buddy shows up in the new comic.
Carson Jackson
TMNT because attitude.
Christopher Stewart
Ghostbusters, since it can be due to Sony doing the live action movie
Jace Garcia

Cooper Walker
My Little Pony. It's the most likely when you really think about it. And no I'm not being a fucking autist. I'm being serious.
Alexander Gutierrez
Some characters like Boller's were dropped preemptively. I doubt they will be back. In his case specifically though I don't think he would mind.
Jaxon Clark
>working on a vocaroo parody for last thread >see the news >lose my shit Do you have any idea how much I WASN'T expecting this? When they said "later date" I was thinking October or something.
Wyatt Moore
The only horses I know of were the horses in the pre-reboot comics, and they looked like, well, this.

Christian Jenkins
I don't think the Freedom Fighters will be back, but I do think artists will sneak them into crowd shots and such.
Bentley Collins
I might have pitied him somewhat if I had the impression he were a real artist, but he has shown that he doesn't want to work hard for is craft, he just wants attention. All these years he's wasted he could have been working in improving his drawing skills, or publishing a webcomic, or something. But he didn't do anything but cause trouble for everyone while playing the victim.
Jacob Martin
well guys, it looks like there's going to be "sonic vs rainbow dash" official material
Anthony Campbell
Praying for them to keep the Freedom Fighters, that's all I want.
Daniel Hernandez
Don't forget those reject Scooby Jew villains running Archie. They can crash and burn as fast as they please now.
Juan Hughes
>yfw he manages to get into IDW the same way he got into Archie and gets to write the stories again
Easton Hill

This wouldn't be the end of the world. Any Sonic fan who actually thinks it is needs to step off their high horse.
Zachary Smith
I thought X and OVA were untouchable due to legal wrangling?
Joseph Hernandez
Wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. I mean, yeah, autists and autists and people will laugh, but people will laugh at Sonic regardless. It's not the worst crossover thing he'll have been in, I'm sure we all remember that Penders crossover.
Caleb Gutierrez
Though on a related note he has said SEGA was okay with them using concepts from Chronicles , such as the Nocturnus. They just didn't because they knew it would trigger Penders, despite him having even less legal ground than suing Archie.
Jeremiah Davis
Sonic isn't for me anymore. Literally nothing about Forces is what I want out of the series. I didn't want vocal themes, I didn't want alternate gameplay styles, I didnt want edgy plots and edgier new characters, I didn't want talking in stages, I didn't want a character creator, I didn't want a totally confused identity as to what Sonic even is, I didn't want mindless nostalgia pandering to an era when Sonic was at it's lowest. I didn't just not ask for this; i actively didn't want it.
Logan Young
Thank you. I'm rather a little flattered at least two persons (not counting you) here grabbed my images with my unique filenames, especially when english isn't my native language. You could say I just like writing boring but interesting formal details.
Julian Martinez
>What is the most likely scenario? Reboot
>What is your most wanted scenario? More honey.
Jeremiah Hall
>turning this shit bait post into pasta Why bother?
Liam White
I think people would actually burn their offices down if that happened and declare it a Crusade sent by God himself if Penders pulls any shit like that.
I'm positive they probably have a strict NO PENDERS clause in any Sega mandates, and probably the rest of the group that tried to sue for Donut Steels.
Aiden Stewart
Please look forward to it
Landon Russell
Gotta go fast
Shut up, Azoo
Elijah Parker
Did you lose your shit while recording? That'd be fun to hear.
Asher Allen
If Ian comes back, he'll have a new editor. One that can keep him on a leash.
Luke Stewart
Does IDW mean the Nocturnus tribe can finally appear? We NEED more Shade and Ix.
Lincoln Martinez
>implying it would be bad
Christian Richardson

David Gomez
Flash crossover I am sure that DC would agree to it given their previous Batman/TMNT collab.
Gabriel Richardson

Christian Morgan
i'm pretty sure he's blacklisted from working with sonic
