161. Sonic the Hedgehog #93

Crime 'N Punishment

Writer: Karl Bollers Pencils: FRY Colors: Frank Gagliardo

Sonic races back to Knothole after his fight with Ken, wracked with guilt both over the king's injuries from the previous day, and from losing the sword today. That said, he's still not ready to face the consequences of his actions, as he's completely outraged when he exits the Great Oak Slide straight into a net waiting to catch him.

That's one hell of a way to try to put someone under arrest, Geoffrey. Imagine if real life cops just slung a net over anyone they wanted to arrest. Sonic angrily insists he doesn't have to answer to Geoffrey, but then Elias shows up, saying he does have to answer to someone after all…

Within Robotropolis, Eggman welcomes the crowd of Overlanders into his city, though the little girl, Hope, finds herself feeling uneasy. As Eggman invites the members of his immediate family into the palace to offer them a "luxury suite," beneath the city streets, Kodos continues to celebrate his acquisition of the Sword of Acorns.

Might wanna be careful of what you say when you've got a sneaky ninja spider hanging around you, buddy boy. In Knothole, Sonic tries to insist to Elias that he wants to speak to Sally before anyone else, but Elias says that whatever he has to say to her can be said to him instead, since he's the acting ruler. Sonic thus imagines himself apologizing tenderly to Sally while holding her close, and, deciding that that is definitely not something he wants to do with Elias, races off, which angers Geoffrey, though Elias says to let him go for now. Sonic is caught up in his depressed thoughts as he runs, until Mina happily races toward him, shouting that she's glad he's not in jail. However, she finds herself unable to control her speed as she runs, and crashes straight into Sonic.

IS THIS A LOVE TRIANGLE I SMELL? Man, I'm sorry Mina, I love you, but I cannot stand love triangles. Y'all already know this. Apparently Mina was actually originally introduced to the comic with the intent to make her a romantic rival for Sonic's affections against Sally, and so for a little while, we're gonna be dealing with that, until Mina is able to get her own characterization apart from being a love interest. Anyway, at that moment Antoine and Bunnie show up, having just returned from their trip to Mercia with the High Sheriff in tow, bound in ropes, because damn, if high quality mechanical restraints designed by the most advanced race on the planet aren't enough to keep a violent and powerful Robian in check, surely some plain old cordage from Home Depot will do! They say they have to speak to the king at once concerning their new prisoner, but Nate arrives as well, explaining to them that the king is paralyzed and Elias is acting ruler for now. Sonic becomes guilt-ridden once again, and to his everlasting credit, Antoine immediately, without first finding out the story behind Sonic's mood, says that he doesn't believe any of this can be Sonic's fault. With the strong, almost hateful-at-times rivalry that these two were depicted having in the original SatAM cartoon, I absolutely love the respect and friendship between Sonic and Antoine in the comics. Antoine in particular is just a much more well-treated character by the writers, who give him proper character development and depth every chance they get, instead of just having him be the Cowardly Frenchman. (Don't get me wrong, Antoine in the show was hilarious, but he really gets the proper love he deserves in the comics.) Anyway, Sonic explains both the king's injuries and the loss of the sword to everyone present, and when Nate tries to reassure him that the king shouldn't have even gone into battle anyway, Sonic suddenly stands and races off, saying he's going to do what he should have done from the start. Meanwhile, back underneath Robotropolis…

You may have messed up big time, Kodos. Elias and Geoffrey approach the queen and Sally to inform them of what Sonic has done, and Sally is shocked to hear the news. She starts to ask what she should do to rectify the situation before catching herself and asking instead what Elias plans to do. Her mother tells her not to worry, and leads her away, while Geoffrey gets his chance to address Elias alone.

I've never agreed so much with such an asshole before. He's basically said exactly what I've been saying this entire time - Sally is the one who has the necessary leadership experience. She ran a whole freakin' rebellion on her own when she was a kid, for crying out loud. However, I draw the line at Geoffrey's plan to basically install himself as a shadow ruler from behind the scenes. Geoffrey is known to be far too harsh in situations which don't call for harshness, and though he has leadership experience of his own, leading the Rebel Underground during Robotnik's reign, he's far less qualified to handle the running of an entire kingdom than he is at leading a small squad of covert operatives.

Back in Robotropolis, Eggman welcomes Colin, Lady Agnes (the woman Sonic saved last issue), and Hope into his palace. Colin explains who the other two are, but it's a bit confusing so I'll give my own spin on things. Colin is Snively's father. We don’t yet know who the mother was, but she isn't in the picture as of now. While in space, he remarried to another woman which made Hope his step-daughter, but that wife died before they reached their home planet once more. Lady Agnes, Hope's grandmother, is his mother-in-law as a result of the marriage. And in all of this, remember that Eggman/Robotnik is Colin's brother, which would essentially make Hope his step-niece. Enough about their weird-ass family history, though - in Knothole, Sonic races back to Elias and admits his guilt in stealing the sword, presenting himself for arrest. Elias, however, instead of arresting him, strips him of his knighthood and tells him that from now on he's confined to Knothole as a minor, all while Geoffrey smirks in the background. Come on, Geoffrey, you were actually acting chill there for a while back when Sonic was actually knighted, why are you going back to your old asshole ways? Sigh…

Bagging the Big One

Writer/Pencils/Colors: Ken Penders

I think this is the first time we've ever had a story where all the work was done by one individual. Unfortunately, that individual happens to be Penders, who has decided to take the laziest approach to his work possible. Seriously - the backgrounds for the majority of the panels are photos of real world landscapes, onto which the comic characters are awkwardly superimposed, making them look incredibly out of place. It's all just… really, really bad. I went ahead and chose some choice panels that demonstrate just how bad it is so y'all can see for yourselves!

Anyway, remember Charmy the Bee? You might not, since he's been ignored by the comic for so long by now, but he still exists, I can assure you! You might also not remember that he's a freaking prince engaged to another bee called Saffron, because Ken Penders is insane. Charmy and Saffron are lounging in a photograph of a field talking about their future children (YES, REALLY) when a flash of light interrupts them and Green Knuckles approaches them. They're surprised at his color swap, and as Charmy introduces him to Saffron, we see the three of them through a set of crosshairs from afar. Yes, that's right, Nack and Nic have tracked Knuckles to this spot with the information the Albion council provided them. Nic wants to take Knuckles down immediately, but Nack admonishes her for not playing dirty enough, and leaves her to her sniper's perch as he approaches the trio. Knuckles, meanwhile, is explaining his new look, as well as the disappearance of the Floating Island.

This next part drives me nuts, because Nack concocts some story about his aircraft breaking down and needing help repairing it, and Knuckles does not suspect a thing, even though he first saw (and punched) him all the way back during the Sonic Triple Trouble special! Granted, it's not like he ever exchanged direct words with him, and I guess you could say it's been years and he's forgotten or something, but you'd think someone who's supposedly as smart as Knuckles would recognize the face of someone he punched off his island previously. Anyway, Knuckles tries to brush Nack off, saying he doesn't have time to help, and in response Nack makes the very smart decision to throw a knife into the grass at Knuckles' feet where he could easily grab it if he wants to. Knuckles does just that, but then listens as Nack informs him that his partner has Charmy and Saffron in her sights and that Knuckles will come with him if he wants his friends to live. Knuckles reluctantly does so, and as they walk over to Nic, Nack reveals that he knows that Knuckles is the Guardian. This shocks Knuckles, who wonders how he even knows about that in the first place, and then we come to perhaps one of my least favorite pages in the entire comic, for a variety of reasons.

First of all - stop with the photo backgrounds, Penders, they look horribly out of place and incredibly ugly. Second of all, the actual art is awkward-looking as hell - for one, Knuckles just looks like he's amiably offering up his wrists for the handcuffs instead of seeming shocked. Third of all, Gala-Na, instead of being reasonable about the whole thing, has again shown herself to be a horrible person. Again, if she just took the time to try to reason with Knuckles, talk to him, offer him advice and help him with his newfound powers, he would probably listen, because he's confused and scared and in want of guidance from people who know more about this stuff than he does! But no, instead she's decided to lock him into a Chaos Syphon against his will, acting like it's some difficult decision for her to make when she's not the one who has to deal with the consequences on her very life and being.

And finally, we come to Yanar. To the image of Yanar, whom Athair once considered so close as to be his own son, whom Knuckles trusted and helped to reach his final destination after generations of wandering without a purpose, who has acted as an ally and even a friend before this moment - Yanar, handing over payment to Nic and Nack the Weasels, in exchange for helping them capture Knuckles to drain him of his power for Gala-Na's own peace of mind. Handing over the payment and ignoring the shocked and betrayed Knuckles behind him, turning his back quite literally on the one person who helped him and all of his people find their home after so long. He's decided that he likes his new home so much that he'll even betray the one who helped him get there. This was the exact moment I realized I hated Yanar. Even more than Gala-Na, I hate him. At least Gala-Na has the excuse of not being attached to Knuckles personally. If you ask me, Knuckles doesn’t show nearly enough anger, hurt, and betrayal from this event. Way to follow in the footsteps of your adoptive father Athair, asshole. You know, the one who actually cares about his family even though so many of them have turned their backs on him? What a complete piece of garbage. Sorry, I know this isn't actually even commentary on the quality of the comic and it's just me personally being all salty at the actions of one character, but I feel really strongly about this one. Just… screw you, Yanar.

BLACK BULLS RAP CYPHER | RUSTAGE ft. DPS, NLJ, Ironmouse & More [Black Clover] - Rustage Lyrics

Singer Rustage

Asta (Rustage):-

Bombing in like a meteor, all brawn I'm looking meatier I'm feeding the demon power seeping through my exterior You're fearing the anti-magic, anti-coward, anti-weak Anti-giving up when I'm pushing my limits past their peak Black Bull, I'm heading the mages like cattle I'm tearing the pages a handful I tackle, not binding my fury no shackles A king don't need no vassals No castles like Hanover All I need is passion when I battle with my Black Clover Magna (Shwabadi):-

They see the hair's salt and pepa 'cus now we're in effect In fact, I might just Magna swing a flaming bat at your neck Thе mana's in check, the red around me giving such a lament effect I fight to fan a flame, they're fanning their death When the flame is on I come hitting like a truck I feel the game, you're gone when the grand slam struck I protect everyone with a prison kill buckshot Tryna take me on? You gon' need a lotta luck, ha Vanessa (Thighhighsenpai):-

Drinking down til this a clear bottle, a fierce model Always looking through these beer goggles, when I hear trouble My magic causes severe struggle, this fear's awful But I'm older now no mere muggle Handle the threads when I'm crafting a web And I'm grabbing the dead like their marionettes Unravel the best when they tangle with 'ness And I'm making a weave just to snatch it from heads I'm a treat no trick, this isn't Halloween I'm a wicked witch, defying gravity Finral (Connor Quest):-

Lady charmer with the powers of a Portal Gun Escape plan always ready if you're thinking that we oughta run No place you need to walk to hun, I can take you anywhere Fetch flowers from the mountain tops or catch your falling derriere Sick knight, kill it with the dip dyed hair I position rifts, I'll see you on the flip side yeah Doesn't even matter if the placement is careless You can't dodge it cause you just don't have the spatial awareness Luck (NonelikeJoshua):-

Hello, fight me I'm ready to show you That all of my luck is my own because Everywhere that I'll be wanting to roam They all know that I'm bringing the thunderdome Lightning had struck, don't be trying your luck when I'm sizing you up Excited as fuck and my smile is stuck while you'll be denying from what I conduct Leaving you in shock and No I never want to talk Unless you're gonna box Cause that is what I love With thunder god gloves And striking from above Yeah I laugh at death But I'm not possessed I promised when I fought as a child Momma said to knock you all out, uh Noelle (FrivolousShara):-

There must be a silver lining For a Silva with no resign Control is mine when the stars align Not meant to color inside the lines Third class, but first rate, check the birth place Tsundere? No, not me, that is not the case Born with a broken wing, no silver eagle I'm a Black Bull, ram these fools with water, drown the ego Mom died giving birth to me, so I'm gon' be her legacy Mess with my friends, Valkyrie foes to Valhalla, see? Zora (Shao Dow):-

(anyone who knows Japanese please help to type this) Get some ash for sure in your nose and chest For a black heart I'm a handful Now you're dealing with the black mask from the Black Bulls Zora, but what's the link? If you bug me get the stink Any trouble that you bring Will get doubled like a twin Forget mana you need manners Aristocratic types get put in a magic daze 'cos you ain't magic knights Grey (HalaCG):-

You 'bout to attack? Funny you say that I'll twist your magic so that we can fight back My body can change and my heart stays intact Fun fact, I don't need confidence when I am stacked Yes I am shy, I'm not a guy A practical Black Bull and I can save lives It's a lie to say I don't like to hide But what truly matters is what's hidden inside The story of Cinderella has nothing on me, I was abused by my step family Mad at me, for magically being unique Call me ugly, I'll fight for this magic knight clique I'm my own person, but hurtin' my squad will earn you a defeat Gordon (GameboyJones):-

It's the man with the whisper, no Ying Yang twins The silent killer with the poison that will eat they skin You want Bull then I'm right here, welcome to the rodeo You keep on taking shots, well then I'll give yo ass an overdose Wait till you see my book, I ain't playing Just wait till you see my book, it's full of recipes I'm Ramsey with the Grimoire, serving up my specialty's G's move in silence, so you better be respecting me Charmy (Ironmouse):-

Awoken from my slumber I hunger so bring an army No wonder I start the party You blunder when facing Charmy Food hearty so do not waste it, I hate it, I'll whip you like cake mix The basics of cooking, every plate is made for greatness A hybrid who's finding my goals Keeping you tight nit when I'm in control Like I'm yeast I keep on growing My love for Yuno is showing I'm smoking meat and I'm knowing That I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing Gauche (Zach Boucher):-

It's just been a bit long road, but we'll keep trekking through it all I promise on my life that I'll be there for you though if you call I'll keep you safe in any way, even with backs up on the wall I got this mirror magic, bringing fear and havoc 'til they fall It's hard to treat you unfair, they all freeze when you stare Don't care for me, it's for Marie, I tend to bleed when I care And now when they see reflections it will not be me that they fear So please tell me when you're in need, I swear, you'll see, I'll be there Henry (GR3YS0N):-

My team don't know that I'm here, but I been around The ops bout to lose this round, I'll bring the house down Equipped with the Bulls and Asta's my projectile Check how I make my house do a ground pound Don't play me close, I'll jack ya mana you better dip I'll turn my crib into a ship and pull up quick For Clover kingdom I swear to god that I will never quit Like my illness my skills is forever sick Secre (Chi-Chi):-

Secre flying on down, never making a sound, holding evil at bay Keeping eyes on you through a bird's eye view, locked up and sealed away Five hundred years I've been waiting around Don't doubt power less you wanna be bound Cast your ego aside, better swallow that pride Cause this swallow gonna make you pay Yami (Daddyphatsnaps):-

Poke the Bull you get the horns, hold on let me light a cigarette I'm smoking all you cowards, only puff the littlest disrespect I'm a step ahead, so if you disregard my intellect There won't be a dimension my katana cannot intercept Pierce your heart and turn your life against you, that's an inner threat And if I interject your wife won't need to have your dinner prepped Surpass those limits or get clapped no finish We the best Black Bulls, no cap, you can get it
