My neighborhood on South Island was small, but so was I. My dreams were big, to be a rock and roll star, and make it there faster than anyone. I only had a few friends to play with, Maxx the Monkey, Mach the Rabbit, Sharps the Chicken, and the absolutely tone deaf Vector the Crocodile. It was abundantly clear he could never be our lead vocalist, so we asked the only person we knew with pipes worth writing home about, Madonna.
So I asked her if she'd like to come over, her response was an emphatic yes. "But," she said, "I thought it was just going to be you and me."
Juan Smith
I'd just be happy with an Advance style HD game. Sonic, Tails, Amy, & Knuckles playable. Lot of colorful zones. That'll never happen though.
Parker Baker
...
Kevin Cruz
No, because it turns out he's eggman as a kid, and that causes a timeloop.
Cameron Garcia
2D as well?
Bentley King
...
Charles Robinson
But how did Eggman go from loving Sonic to hating him?
Ethan Phillips
...
Levi Campbell
Couldn't be helped. He was caught in a causal loop.
James Garcia
What does she see in him?
Luis Martin
Hedgehogs urinate on each other during intercourse, so probably something to do with that.
David Taylor
He makes her laugh
Aaron Peterson
...
Ian Turner
Yes sir.
Oliver Hughes
I get that reference
Hunter Hill
What you see in him.
Jacob Foster
...
Charles Lopez
still waiting for that sauce

>Tfw gave nieces some of my Sonic plushes cause they wanted them a week ago >They take my favorites: Blaze and Rouge >They've already lost them You ever lose any Sonic stuff /sthg/?

Because of the convoluted way anime production works, the rights to anything made for the OVA are likely split between SEGA, Studio Pierrot, and a third company that doesn't exist anymore. It's ot so much that SEGA doesn't have rights to the OVA, they just don't have exclusive rights and neither they nor Studio Pierrot care enough to get full rights from the other.

This is the last one I have, promise.
Besides, what are we going to talk about? That fantastic Dawn of War: Mobius trailer we saw at E3 where Team Sonic and Relic teamed up to bring us a 'what-if' scenario where Sonic and his friends must defend Mobius from the approaching Ordo Xenos?
Cooper Brooks
I don't get it. Why is Madonna so popular when she's only appeared in a spin off issue and hasn't done anything of real significance?
Thomas Williams
He's fast
Ethan Campbell
Because she's a combined reference to unused Sonic lore as well as a generally liked Sonic X character.
Jason Morris
There's something about that Katella that makes her sexy. It's not the fact that she's completely naked and she has the perfect body... it's her face.
Ryan Thompson
It's not his speed. He must be using the Chaos emerald to warp.
Chase Wright
If you commission enough good artists you can make anything popular
Gabriel Harris
we're a bunch of thirsty fags that jack off to animals, so a regular looking Muh Donna is a bit much
Adam Nguyen
Claiming their territory?
Christian Diaz
I agree, it's slightly alluring rather than sneering like she's usually drawn
Jace Ross
No it causes them to relax their quills and makes intercourse less painful
Christian Bell
You should be asking why Katella's so popular when she's an annoying shitty character.
David Allen
Damnit Sage
Jason Taylor
Where is this art from? Also, why is Sonic smiling in the 2nd panel?
Samuel Bennett
Where the hell is this thread going?
Asher Nelson
It's not just that, she has the kind of beauty that's lewd and charming at the same time...
William Myers
I don't know, why is the fapbait popular? Fucking bizarre right?
>not Rouge She's even got the treasure hunter schtick Tell me you don't see it.
David Sanchez
SO
HOW ABOUT THAT E3 TRAILER GUYS?
What are your E3 highlights so far? Mine has to be Dawn of War, Spider-Man and maybe Crash remastered
Connor James

Ryder Morgan
sonic heroes wasn't that bad
Zachary Baker
>Spider-Man It's moon swinging user
Cameron Ramirez
Could have been a lot better, however I would say I like the idea of playing as 3 characters at once plus the vastness of the levels.
Sebastian Sanchez
Breath of the Wild first game I've been excited to play in years.
Ian Long
I can't believe I'm saying this but Infinite Warfare actually looked fun.
Jason Reyes
No problem with that chum
Lucas Jones
>tfw you'll never get to spend the day with Amy and enjoy her company
It hurts so much.
Cooper Hernandez
I don't understand all the hate for it. I would like my zero gravity every bullet sends you careening into space simulator, but it looks pretty fucking sweet. Zelda best game there. Kojima is fucking weird and thank god he got Sony and didn't do an Inafune.
Sonic better show magic on the 22nd or I'll load up Sonic CD again and play that like I have the past 4 fucking years.
Kayden Wright
>Sonic better show magic on the 22nd or I'll load up Sonic CD again and play that like I have the past 4 fucking years. Load it up right now user because we ain't getting shit
Joshua Sullivan

Luis Gomez
A lot of the things in the Sony presentation looked good but the other presentations were complete letdowns. RE7, the Crash remakes, Kojima's new game, DR4, and Zelda take the cake, though.

Brandon Collins
Sonic #281 went down to 6,773 direct market unit sales.
Nolan Baker
What was 280's?
Aiden Murphy
And Universe is still under 6k too.
Juan Thomas
Is Archie Sonic finally dead?
Jason Phillips
Only way it's dying is if Archie goes absolute full retard again
Asher Turner
Dunno what they expected after going on a 3 month unexplained hiatus.
Julian Wood
Jesus Christ, that's getting bad.
Eli Evans
wait so direct market is just like actual comic shops right? does that include the archie app they keep pushing or the supermarket sales?
Jaxson Peterson
Honestly I expected worse from a non-Big 2 licensed comic for a franchise that's more of a punchline than a legitimate franchise nowadays To answer the first part, yes. And that's Diamond numbers, and iirc, Archie doesn't go through Diamond distribution. I could be wrong.
