BRACKET REVEAL
Alright. At long last, I present to you the bracket...or should I say...*BRACKETS* for the Virtual Character Tournament!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Given the scale, the first round is going to be one bracket per week, 4 a day, with each lasting 24 hours. I know that this is still tight, but given how many contestants there are, along with the necessary inclusions of images and propaganda (oh and I guess also my job), it's what I can do to keep this semi-manageable. There's also no redemption round this time. It's gonna be a single elimination tournament. Be kind to your peers. This is not but a drop in the infinite ocean of the internet.
...oh yeah the brackets themselves. We'll be going in order over the course of 4 weeks. I'll make proper announcements for them as they commence. Given how many there are and what I want to get done beforehand, Bracket 1 will likely begin some time this week. But for the matchups...

MY TIME HAS COME.
you can read archie on grabberzone! all the "eras" are split up into their own categories and i'm like 99% sure the mega man crossover is on there (if not then you can find that on readcomiconline)
start with classic era and then follow along with the story. at the end of the issues i think it directs you to sonic universe sometimes or the mega man crossover but if not um. you'll still understand the lore it kinda fills itself in (but you should read it all anyways)
Uurghh.... I should read Archie huh... I should.... But damn.... I don't know if I have the strength to do it ...
I just got caught up with the IDW main story (minus whispangle) so ..
OUGHHH IT WOULD BE SOOOO NICE TO PULL OUT DETAILS FROM ALL THE MEDIA FOR MY AU...
and also knowing what my Archie fan friends are going on about
I should read more of the IDW comics (non main stuff) too
Also do I even bother with the Ken Penders stuff because I don't want him to sue me for plagiarism/j
Ughh Sonic. Being a Sonic fan is so hard .. I don't like reading... (Like I don't hate it, but :(... Why are manga and comics hard to follow...)

The DiC characters or the adventures of sonic characters are not coming back, ever. 90's nostalgia is super huge right now, tons of companies are doing nostalgia bait and callbacks to especially 90's stuff. If SEGA were to ever use those characters, it would be now. The fact that theyre not, says enough. And they sure as heck wont use them 10 years from now when kids dont even know sonic had those cartoons.
Think about it like this, obscure characters from the Sonic Manga of all things have gotten referenced. That the FF's dont get that or Sonic X characters is for a reason. I'm sure the comic writers would love to do some easter eggs or just goof about the old cartoons, but SEGA must be keepin a tight grip on certain characters not even getting alluded to.
I'm not sure why you felt the need to send this? First of all this isn't even something I've talked about in the last few days. Second... yeah, no shit there are reasons why the DiC characters like the Freedom Fighters or Scratch and Grounder or whoever haven't come back? I've written about all those reasons extensively. The legal drama of the Archie comics, the mixed reputation of the series, the clear desire to differentiate the IDW series from the Archie run, their relative obscurity compared to the Sega cast, the fact that they clash with the modern vision for Sonic without retooling, and of course the fact that Sega has just never really cared about any of them. If getting those characters back was easy then the IDW series would've just been about the Freedom Fighters from the start. I've said repeatedly that folks shouldn't hold their breath
But I also don't think it's completely impossible, even if it's not something I'm counting on. And that's because Sonic is a franchise defined by weird, unexpected decisions. Did anyone expect to get a decades late live action Sonic movie, or for it to be the highest grossing video game movie ever? Did anyone expect Sega to sanction a new classic-style 16-bit Sonic game from a team of indie devs? Or a game where you get to make your own Sonic OC and have them be besties with Sonic? Or a (bad) Sonic RPG from BioWare? Or for them to devote that much screentime to Elise at the big Sonic Symphony? Or for Tangle and Whisper to get their own comic miniseries, a bunch of official merch, and even playable appearances in two mobile games? Or an officially licensed Mephiles the Dark Tech Deck? I could go on and on. Again: I'm not saying it's gonna happen any day now. But weirder things have happened
I also don't think "kids don't know who characters like the Freedom Fighters are" is an argument that holds any water. I mean, yeah, obviously they're not NEARLY as popular as the game cast. But like... older media doesn't just disappear when a new generation of kids rolls around? Especially not when it's attached to a perpetually popular franchise
Like, when I was a kid, I became obsessed with a lot of shit that was from before my time! Classic Mega Man, the G1 Transformers cartoon, EarthBound. And as I've explained before, Sonic too. I got into Sonic in 2002, but it was through catching AoStH on Toon Disney and randomly stumbling upon Archie Sonic #13 at a flea market. It didn't matter that those were outdated pieces of Sonic media because they were still new to me. And I know there are kids out there who are the same way. Months before the movie came out, my little niece and nephew became obsessed with Sonic X (with no involvement from me) because it was on Netflix, and now they love Sonic. It didn't matter to them that that show was nearly 17 years old at the time. While they're definitely in the minority, I'm sure there are kids out there finding SatAM on YouTube (or on Netflix, when it was on there), or finding fanart of Sally online and looking into where she came from. No, they aren't as widely marketable as someone like Shadow, but that doesn't mean NOBODY knows who they are aside from old farts, or that kids who like Sonic turn their noses up at characters they don't already recognize

What are your thoughts on the infamous "Top Ten Hottest Female Sonic Characters" video? I don't mean that question as a joke, do you think that that video kinda set back the image of "Sonic fan" back for a good few years?
My stance on this has always been that everyone on the internet is weird about something, and Sonic fans are not necessarily weirder than anything you’d find if you overturned a rock in another corner of the internet.
This is an immutable fact that becomes more obvious the more time you spend online. Spend enough time online and you’re going to see something you didn’t know existed, and if you spend too much time online, eventually you start to become numb to it.
In isolation I think that video is meaningless. There’s lots of things out there of that caliber -- the “Andy drawing a map of Princess Peach’s Eyes” image, for example. You might know of that image, but not many people know that it was only one of many. There was a whole series of those comics that was basically “me, a human male of the real world, repeatedly express my deep romantic affection for Princess Peach.”
Or, like, Pokemon, right? I remember in the early days of the Let’s Play community, Pokemon Let’s Plays had to be permanently banned from SomethingAwful on all grounds because it attracted thirsty creepers who weren’t very subtle about their feelings towards underage girls.
Like I said, there’s weird stuff all over the place if you point the spotlight in the wrong directions. And for some people out there, it’s part of growing up -- more and more of the internet is being taken up by the awkward intellectual awakening period we experience in transition from child to adult. A lot of earnest emotional confusion is being permanently recorded out there for all to see as we all figure ourselves out.
Tangentially, I see discussion today about how Zoomers in particular are a generation that has no guilt and openly embraces the cheesy and the stupid with genuine love, and I think it’s related to that. They can’t hide from who they were as kids, they just kind of have to own it. I can respect that.
What I think happened with Sonic is just the games themselves being so bad. Getting things like Shadow the Hedgehog, and Sonic 2006, or even the later Ken Penders run of the Archie comics, whatever, and kind of forcing the question: “If they’re always so terrible, why do they keep making more?”
That naturally leads to one answer: because Sonic fans keep buying them. So what’s wrong with Sonic fans?
“Well I saw this video one time...”
“There’s this webcomic about this medallion...”
“Have you seen what these church kids are drawing?”
In the big picture, nothing out of the ordinary is actually happening here. Kids are being kids (broadly speaking). It's a natural effect of Sonic maintaining a certain level of popularity with a certain age group for a sustained period of time.
I’ve even talked about how Sonic has kind of reached this status where the franchise is almost a perpetual motion machine. Sega couldn’t kill Sonic the Hedgehog at this point if they tried. It’s become this thing like Star Trek or Transformers where fans will just exist forever, even during lulls in quality or breaks in media. They will churn out their own new content and feed each other for theoretical eternity. If Sonic has survived this much for this long, it is immortal.
But that also means that, like... what is a “brand”? It’s a set of standards and rules governing the appearance and behavior of a specific piece of intellectual property. In order to be “on-brand” you have to adhere to the rules, otherwise you are not allowed to be part of the brand. Luigi is always taller than Mario. Mega Man’s briefs are always a different color than his arms and thighs. Sonic the Hedgehog can never cry.
Tumblr media
Fans don’t have to stay on brand. The “brand” is whatever they think it should be. They can do anything with the characters, take them anywhere, write anything they feel like, embarrassing or not. Sonic the Hedgehog is a ghost now? Sure why not. Tails is part of a massive crossover involving every cartoon media property in a war against internet bullying? Nobody can stop you. You can just make up anything and do it. Sega probably wouldn't approve, but if you're a fan, you don't need their approval. You just need faith in your own ideas.
And this even applies to big budget, professional work. We've seen it before, when Sega lets other people redesign Sonic. Style guides and brand rules are what keeps a character in check so they look and act in a consistent way, but if you pull back the curtain and look at what gets submitted before the rules are applied...
Tumblr media
...then even professional, “official” designs start getting pretty weird. Artistic license is great and all but people will break characters over their knee and remake them as something unrecognizable if you give them enough room to do so.
And for a fandom, not only can they be like this all the time, forever, they can go even further beyond. When you have an imagination, the sky is the limit.
And, again, I say “fandom” there. Not just Sonic fandom, but all fandoms, everywhere. They always were, and always will be like this. (And, to be clear: that’s great!)
The only difference is, Sega’s own inability to stay consistent gave more people a reason to go turning over rocks and seeing what crawled out. Unsurprisingly, a very active, self-sustaining fanbase meant there was a lot to see.

A Look At Stuff You Probably Never Heard Of: Archie Sonic Online
I meant to work on this sooner, but I’ve been both distracted and exhausted. But better late than never, I suppose. Today, we’ll be taking a look at... Archie Sonic Online!
Tumblr media
Archie Sonic Online is an online webseries that functions similarly to Sonic the Comic Online, both being online continuations of Sonic the Hedgehog comics. However, Archie Sonic Online, rather than continuing where the official Archie Sonic the Hedgehog comics ended, with being set in an entirely new continuity, Archie Sonic Online continues the story from the original continuity.
Technically, Archie Sonic Online was started on September 2015 where it was known as Sonic Mobius and aimed to adapt the the “Lost Hedgehog Tales”, a series of ideas written by Archie Sonic writer, Ian Flynn, but wasn’t able to use for various reasons. The project itself would be set after Issue 247, disregarding the crossover event with Archie Mega Man. However, the project would officially be known as Archie Sonic Online on February 1st, 2016 and abandoned adapting the “Lost Hedgehog Tales” and instead decided to continue the original story.
Tumblr media
As stated before, the online comic series takes place right after the last main issue before the reboot. For a refresher, Princess Sally has been turned into Mecha Sally and used to fight against Sonic and the Freedom Fighters. Eggman launches an attack on New Mobotropolis while Sonic and the others deal with Mecha Sally, only to receive help from Silver, who once again returned from the future to track down the traitor that would lead to the destruction of the future; that traitor being Sally (albeit not of her own free will). He manages to short Mecha Sally out, allowing Sonic, Tails, and Amy to focus on the Death Egg Mk. 2.
At the same time, the Tails Doll is attacking New Mobotropolis, leading the newly formed Team Freedom (comprised of Rotor, Cream, Heavy and Bomb, and Big) to fight the creature, which had also taken out the city’s defenses.
Tumblr media
It’s also worth noting that these issues are worked on by different people. And due to it being a non-profit project that’s still in its early states, new issues are very few and far between. Not to mention the art styles can largely vary from issue to issue.
Once again, the time has come for the Final Recommendation Never Let Go Of It||Get It||Hold Onto It||Try It||Consider It||Stay Away From It
This comic series is still in its early issues, so as stated before, updates are largely infrequent and there can be some odd, albeit minor quirks within some of the panels. And some of the dialogue can be read somewhat awkwardly at times. 
However, despite the minor issues, the passion is still there, trying to continue where the original Archie Sonic comics left off and finish the plotlines that were left unresolved when the official comics got rebooted.
I also want to mention that Archie Sonic Online does more than the mainline Sonic the Hedgehog series, but also Sonic Universe. They also did a very short-live Mobius Legends series, which are simply one-shot stories that have no affect on continuity or the larger story. In fact, the image above with Princess Elise and Blaze are from the Mobius Legends series.
Not to mention they’re also adapting the rewriting the Endangered Species arc. In the original comic, the story ended with Thrash the (Tasmanian) Devil throwing the Echidnas within Albion, both the citizens and Dark Egg Legionnaires into a Warp Ring to an unknown location, thus leaving Knuckles and a small handful of Echidnas left on Mobius.
All-in-all, I say to check it out, especially if you were a fan of the original Archie Sonic series. And while writing this post, I learned they also have the entire Archie Sonic series uploaded to their website. Not just the mainline Sonic and Sonic Universe series, but also the Knuckles the Echidna series, and even the Sonic Boom and Sonic X series.
If you want to read it, the website can be found here.
And with that, I’ll see you guys next month. I got a few things I plan on talking about, so until next time.

So I know there’s that Archie Sonic Online, the fan continuation of the Archie Sonic Comics, does one exist for the Archie Mega Man comics?

Okay, two things:
1: Have you ever looked at the Zone Cops and thought “Hey, they remind me of the Justice Department from Judge Dredd”? I maybe reaching it, but with the uniforms and everything, it’s either for me to think that they’re the closest thing Sonic has to adapting the setting of Judge Dredd in their canon and fanon works at the moment, even if Zonic isn’t as grim as Joseph Dredd compared to the probable No Zone Shadow, so long as he’s not a defense attorney.
2: I know Archie Sonic Online and Retold started by changing the story arc before the Mega Man Crossover, but do you think that maybe diverting things during the crossover might be a more preferable option than what they depicted? With respect to those fan comic makers, I think that the echidna decline could’ve been something to work with in the long term, and since Penders wouldn’t necessarily be involved, it doesn’t exactly have to be permanent.
Hey, man!
1. Honestly, if I watched more 90s sci-fi/action I would know more about the setting of Judge Dredd, but I would have probably made the connection too. The eye-obscuring helmets certainly seem inspired by the one the titular hero wears.
When I think of the Zone Cops and their inspiration, I think more of @chauvel 's awesome comic than Judge Dredd. xD
2. Both Archie Sonic Online and Retold are great in their own ways! I follow both of em and enjoy what stories they tell if the whole "Genesis Wave" thing never happened. I think it was a good choice for them to not have their stories start during the Mega Man crossover, cause it put a damper on the otherwise light-hearted crossover and it be more dramatic for them to just return home and discover the whole Echidna decline. Then again, I might have missed something in Retold so maybe I'm missing a few things. xP

M-more roboticized Silver please
The biggest thing I wonder rn: how would his robot form utilise his powers? So, we do have the Roboticised Masters from the first cross-over between Archie Sonic and Mega Man, and if I remember correctly he had... an arm canon sort of thing?
*one quick Read Comic Online check later*
So, yes and no! He can fly with his powers
Tumblr media Tumblr media
BUT he also has an arm canon
Tumblr media
Uh, but in the first two pictures he has two normal hands with fingers... where did the canon come from??
Anyway, I myself like to think his robot form would have to tap into his telekinesis differently that normal flesh-and-blood Silver. It's a mind power, after all, and as a robot he's shambling around mindlessly or at the very least not in control of things. One cool thing I read about a while back on tumblr is magnetism for a possible Metal Silver, so maybe it would work for Roboticised Silver too? Or something that allows him to very locally alter gravity? It would be the similar to his psychic powers, while also being different and interesting in their own right!

To Zonic: Is the Mega Man world part of Mobius Prime, or is it part of a separate Zone?
Zonic: That world is it’s own separate Zone, seperate from the Prime Zone.
