So..... Today, I bring to you, the most glorious, unique, and unjustly forgotten (rightly so !) gem that archie somehow got done after having a glimpse of what madness truly meant.
Are you ready for a ride you did not want any part on ?
Jaxon Brooks
I WANT TO HUG STATION SQUARE
I WANNA RIDE
Jayden Parker
Nights?
More like.... DAYS
Gabriel Carter
guys i think u might have mistaken me for the streamer !
he is away but will come back later to check the results !
Zachary Torres
Please no.
Lincoln Perry
I thought they changed her design because it was nonstandard. People already liked to bitch about how the Archie characters looked like "OC"s so the redesigns were meant to make them look more like characters within the Sonic game canon, following similar design principles. Full clothing for the females, little to no clothing for the males, shoes and gloves for mostly everyone.
I personally think Nu-Sally is much cuter though, in exchange for not being mostly naked.
Aiden Lopez
Do it Take me away
Lincoln Ramirez
...
Ethan Cooper
Well it's too bad, cuz you got drafted into it, son.
And I'm going to story time BOTH issues
Levi Hughes
Let's do it to it.
Isaiah White
I think she looks much much more attractive pre252 but like someone else said if they're not doing relationships and shit like that then there's no reason for her to look like old sally. So I approve of the new design.
Ayden Green
Nah, you're the streamer. Either way the vote is pointless because you're spamming Amy rose advertisements. Also >strawpoll
Jaxson Walker
...
Josiah Reyes
Needless exposition time. Also, rayman 2 is looking great.
Owen Brooks
>pre252 >Amy looks much more animalistic compared to all these other characters with model-like figures and proportions >post252 >all characters modified to look more animalistic like Amy >Amy now looks the most attractive It was all for the best
Camden Butler
Man I really hope theres some new character interaction in project 2017
David Peterson
I would say she is still second to Bunnie, but yeah your point stands.
Wyatt Murphy
I'm afraid I got some bad news.
Benjamin Evans
It's like Batman v superman. Batman can't compete with someone who is just on another level, but bring supes down to his level, and Batman runs away with it.
Blake Davis
I know its going to be more classic sonic shilling
Isaiah Garcia
>Nah, you're the streamer. actually im not! i promise! i just would really like him to stream advance amy this time !
Ian Murphy
...
Cooper Ward
I always thought Amy looked better than 'generic furry Sally in perverted middle schooler's sketchbook' anyway.
Hudson Morgan
OH FUCK WHAT ARE YOU DOING
Evan James
>both issues You mean both 3-parters, right?
Jack Evans
I disagree but a part of me is glad Sal isn't advertised as a sex symbol anyway anymore so on some level we're both happy now
Levi Smith
Classic Omega.
Asher Fisher
Both series.
Welcome to hell, population : this entire general.
Michael Murphy
Classicfag here. Probably as conservative on what sonic should be as they come. I wish they would keep classic sonic out of the boost games going forward. Generations was fine as a one-time thing celebrating the franchise, but the classic pandering just seems out of place to me now. Mania is already more popular than 2017 and is probably going to plant the seeds for the face of the franchise for the next while, so why not let the people that prefer the boost games enjoy them without constant references to the classic era? I just think if I was a boost-preferring person, it would probably piss me off.
The way I see it they now have the mania/classic 2D sprite games for the platforming/traditional audiance, so keep all the classic feeling there. Boost meanwhile should spend less time pandering to that previously mentioned audiance and instead spend more time perfecting and polishing it's playstyle and design imo. Again I'm not a big fan of boost so I can't really speak for those people, but I can take a guess.
Hunter Garcia
That's a very fair and considerate way of looking at it and I appreciate that.
Anthony Price
Deer
Kevin Hughes
I rank pretty far down the spectrum as far as being a furry goes, but the green deer really just doesn't do it for me.
Luke Scott
Anyone got that OC someone made of Sally commenting on how the spats make it feel like she's wearing nothing at all?
Nicholas Morris
I just thought the art was cute.
Connor Garcia
Going a bit too far down the anthro scale for my tastes
Aaron Robinson
>Going a bit too far down the anthro scale for my tastes Yeah that might be what it is. Too much of a snout. Just a bit too much "animal"
John Cox
I always thought Bunnie and Nicole looked better than both of them anyways.
Anthony Gonzalez
Boostfag/adventurefag here, and you summed up my feelings perfectly. I wish more people shared your view and communicated at least half as articulately.
Jackson Garcia
Man I need more of that Clove. Might be an idea if I ever get another EpicTones comm.
Mason Martin
I love Spaz and all, but he just straight up did not give a single fuck in this series, ESPECIALLY in the second half.
Joseph Barnes
Fake deers
Dominic Cruz
Dear aurora, all these close ups are really creeping me out.
Also they killed night's deliciously toned butt.
Alexander Gomez
What about Bump?
FUCK
Why hasn't anyone drawn Bump in Clove or Cassia's clothing or C&C in Bump's clothes? This is a great idea.
Cooper Campbell
u mean this one?
Liam Miller
Bump is an actual deer. Pronghorns are not.
Henry Long
Don't make me prong your horn, faggot.
Ryder Stewart
>Bump is an actual deer. Pronghorns are not.
That's ridiculous. That's saying like Zebras and Tigers aren't the same.
Nathan Wilson
You know, I think nobody CARED at all.
I'm currently trying to upscale the issues I have found. being an old forgotten comic, it is difficult to find a decent sized version.
Julian Martinez
Nope. It was just a single panel.
Xavier Foster
Good luck with that. I don't think ScanF even had scans. Have you tried TKA?
Notable Notes: >Sonic and Tails mode >Elemental Shields >Ziplines >He cuts it off right before the fucking boss fuck you Aaron just show us already >Still no Metal in sight (could be the Act 2 Boss?)
Chase Morgan
Wwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Joseph Lewis
The mountains look a lot different than act one.
Ian Robinson
The description mentions "heading to the mountains of Green Hill", so they're probably a focus in this reimagined version
Gavin Taylor
>music is the same for both acts I'm a little bit disappointed everything else is great though
Ryder Clark
Oh hey, the fire shield burnt the environment. Neato.
still waiting for this release, wish me luck anons
Dylan Jones
Knowing Aaron, Metal is in the game somewhere, but he rused us by pretending they'd reveal Metal and introducing the Heavies instead.
Adam Hernandez
Just about to post this. Fuck your Archie faggotry, let's talk this shit. >Spiked log burns when you run over it with the fire shield >Dem backgrounds
Christopher Cruz
To be honest I don't give a single shit about Metal and I am perfectly fine with us getting the Heavy Niggas in exchange
Joshua Turner
I'm just having a giggle at Aaron's Ruse Cruise. There's still a chance Metal could be in the game somewhere, and regardless I'm not going to start *autistic screeching* that we get new bosses that don't involve Eggman piloting a ship with some nonsense attached to it.
Michael Roberts
When you think about it, night into dream had a pretty fucking dark story.
The only way for night to defeat wizeman is to destroy him and ALL OF HIS CREATIONS. that includes night themselve. The jester cheerfullies goes on to what is basically a suicide mission by all means, and the boy knows it.
Also this guy looks fucking cool, I love the idea of new robot characters.
John Garcia
I'm really glad they're giving Eggrobos a more prominent role in Sonic Mania, i really liked them in S3&K but it's a shame they were just in Sky Sanctuary since they seemed like Eggman's elite goons.
Blake Gray
>thorn logs burn up >not the bridges wtf i hate Mania now
