I think we should stop letting people call stuff filler unless it's DBZ or something with a similar situation to it

Sonic doesn't understand what exactly Eggman is saying but Tails knows the meaning of those words. Little guy is horrified...

[ID: a panel from issue 55 of the idw sonic comics. Surge is sitting on eggman's chest, presumably trying to kill him. He's attempting to push her off but she is biting his hand. End ID]

They weren’t kidding, Surge really went and bit someone this issue. Eggman could have lost a finger for real...

Please ignore if I clicked the wrong blog to respond to.
But I also want new Megas and Protomen :(
RIGHT?!?!
I mean, yeah, the Megas also have their takes on Skullman's theme ("Cracked Skulls"; inspired by MM4) and Chill Penguin's theme ("Chill XMas"; inspired by MMX), and I guess there's also one based on Storm Eagle's theme ("Rougmer Storm"; MMX), but I haven't listened to that one yet.
Like, I get that they have a good story arc to cover the first 3 classic games, but it would be so cool if they explored some of the themes of the following games, y'know? Or flesh out the MMX or other series music! Or hell, pick and choose some Robot Masters and make a new narrative, or like literally anything, please, people are starving over here! And it's not like they aren't still active. Don't get me wrong, I love their Castlevania stuff under the Belmonts label, but it would be nice to get Mega Man content outside of just remixes/remasters of their existing songs. Plus, they're still doing concerts, so like the audience is there for it!
And as for the Protomen, I hope that they actually end up releasing Act III at some point. Having listened to The Fight, it makes me crave it to an unhealthy degree. I love the grimdark kinda take on Mega Man that focuses more on the role that humanity takes in all of the conflict. I feel like that angle gets extremely neglected in Mega Man media.
Idk, as a fan, it's just kinda frustrating how neglected mega man gets. Like, it feels like the rare times whenever we do get content, it focuses on the first three or four games (if we're lucky), and then it just dies off! Or goes dormant for a decade or more. The franchise has so much creative potential that just isn't realized and it's so sad!
#hoping praying everyday for more#oh god and like just how foundational both bands have been for the creative efforts for the classic series#the archie comic even references The Megas a few times!! I GAVE YOU HAIR (ROBOTIC HAIR)#imagine the potential with a Bass focused narrative! or Quint! or Dr Cain!!#and Capcom themselves arent free from scorn here. if they encouraged more creative efforts a la the archie comic it could stimulate#even more interest in the series beyond just jumping and shooting. like that helps to build an evergreen fanbase#and i mean more than just XDiVE. like i find XDiVE charming yeah but like. Im not seeing the profits from being put back into mega man stuff#having friends that have gotten me back into transformers really makes me reflect on Mega Man. i get that transformers has toylines and MM#is more game focused and that def makes a difference but like. the amount of comic series and issues that help flesh out the transformers#universes. for MM we get like 55 issues for archie? 'indefinite hiatus'? bro we know the sonic stuff brought MM down with it just say 'dead'#let IDW take up the license and get Ian Flynn to come back. i know we likely wont get ArchieOCs like Tempo back but like#idk.... it hurts bc i know how good of a job the archie comics were. its hard to imagine a reboot that isnt basically identical in story to#archie. esp bc how much love was put into tying in with the side content like the hand held games. but surely something could be done#somehow it could be continued. find some kind of Genesis Wave-esque mcguffin to change the OCs out. retcon the sonic stuff out completely#i really dont want to see MM1—MM3 needing to be revisited *again*. its like a Dr.Wily/Sigma in their own right for how much it comes back#like thats prob what kills a lot of creative endeavors tbh. the themes and events are so foundational that theyre nigh inescapable#I'm just.... tired..#i have so much love for mega man and so many chains holding that love down

The amount of Sonic n’ Tails bro energy in IDW Sonic #55 is breathtaking.

A little observation form the new idw sonic issue #55
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Surge seems almost addicted to the energy gained via the dynamo cage. draining Starline base sigma of most of its power and ripping though the egg walker to get the chaos drive.
To be frank even if she didn’t hate sonic and Eggman and thought they’re out to hurt her I doubt she’d willingly part with the device but like with most ways to get an addictive boost it inevitably comes with some side effects…
Tumblr media
Oh Surge I think things are gonna get a bit worse before it gets better for you.
I’m genuinely scared she’s gonna overload on energy and fucking blow up in the last part of this arc

I have yet to read the new issue myself, but I believe Surge and Kit are explicitly stated/shown to be in it just to go fuck everyone over and hurt all their enemies in the Restoration, right? That is one of the many problems with IDW for me: instead of keeping things remotely under wraps and letting us as audience put together clues ourselves that the villains did actually not turn over a new leaf, it very explicitly shows this to be the case to us from the second they appear... yet none of the hero characters know about it, and the plot honestly is specifically tailored to ensuring they will not find out until it is too late (I'm still mad at all the bs pulled in issue 63, for example). It adds such an extra layer of frustration when we know that the more sceptic characters are one hundred percent in the right, only for them to be brushed off by their peers and not taken seriously. Like, surely I am not the only one who does not like seeing a favorite character of mine be made fun of despite knowing that they're just plain correct in their suspicions? I feel that a "dramatic irony" plot does not have to immediately equate to "unenjoyable teeth-grinding of frustration"... but only if it didn't come at the expense of legit all the respect the cast has for the Woobie Characters™️ who are Only Here To Be Hurt Because Isn't That Only Why People Like Them, like Silver or Whisper.
Oh, it's not just that. It's not just about seeing S&K teaming up with Clutch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Surge keeps being confrontational and mocking, praising Whisper for being suspicious of her, at one point literally suggesting to burn the base down, to which Sonic responds "yeah sure fuck around and find out"...
Tumblr media
But he still has the balls to say "but they deserve a second and third chance 🥺"
You idiot. You clown. You absolute buffoon. What. In the fuck. Are you doing.
Yes sure Surge and Kit deserve to have the chance to be free! But
they can't. Not so easily. You have learned in #55 that they were literally programmed to be antagonistic: you can't really get over brainwashing after a few nice words. I know you refused to give a shit because you're a heartless asshole, but you know this.
they have done literally nothing to indicate that they want to do better. "oh buh muh knuckles, muh shadow, muh silver" shut the fuck up, all these three actually HELPED Sonic to prove that they had a change of heart! Knuckles brought them to Sky Sanctuary! Shadow went to fight the Biolizard! Silver saved Sonic from Eggman's robots and helped him to look for the Egg Carrier! Surge has literally walked to Amy like "yo bestie are we cool?" and Amy... I don't even know what her deal is.
SHE JOKED ABOUT BURNING THE BASE. TO YOUR FACE. YOU KNOW THAT SHE'S MORE THAN CAPABLE OF DOING THAT. YOU EVEN TOOK THE THREAT TO FACE VALUE.
What about Whisper and Belle's choice? They don't want Surge and Kit around, for legitimate reasons. But you steamrolled over their mistrust because you are so eager to play Mr. Principles. Hell he even responded to Belle's "but Dr. Starline made them!" with "and Eggman made Gemerl and Omega", which makes my head bang on the wall so hard you have no idea.
you are the biggest hypocrite on this cursed earth:
Tumblr media
I hate you and everything you stand for.
But most importantly... we went through this already. With Duo. Duo infiltrating the base and rousing Silver and Whisper's suspicious. Why should I see this again. What do I gain from this.
My brain is melting.

Okay alright okay just got done reading issue 55 of the IDW Sonic comics and I have so much I need to say on god so. Spoilers under the cut fhfh
Okay. First. Surge.
At first, I was meh about her. Thought she was just another one of those average villains and all that. But this issue.. Put up a new light.
Tumblr media
This... This is a panic attacks, right??? Like I'm not crazy, or the only one that sees it as that, it is one right???
I don't know why it didn't hit me until now but like. Starline really did screw them up big time didn't he?? Cuz god if this isn't the definition of trauma then idk what is, and the fact that IDW is going this hard for it?? That's just crazy.
Like I said earlier I just thought that Kit and Surge were kind meh, but now it's like. They're like villains I can sympathize with now because Surge can't see that Sonic is trying to help her, she actively thinks he wants her gone. I had more coherent thoughts on this earlier but this was the gist shdbdg
Hell Starline just. Kidnapped them when they were children. Stole them away from their homes. I don't remember how he did it but was their growth accelerated?? Did they stay down there for like. Years? Like what Surge said:
Who were they before all this. Will we learn? What will happen then??
And not only that, but when Sonic and Tails learned that they were made Sonic's face.
Tumblr media
I know that people have probably already talked about it but he is. Genuinely horrified. We don't see him get shaken like this very often, and now that he knows he just wants to help her. This is like going down a road he probably didn't expect.
If we find out where Surge and Kit comes from it's going to be like. Idk but it's probably not gonna be fun for him fhhfhh
Starline just. Is a lot worse than I already thought he was. Good lord these poor kids. ):
And to make the mood lighter oh my god this
Tumblr media
ARE THEY. ARE THEY ON A DATE????? DID AMY ASK HIM TO GO AND HE ACTUALLY WENT WITH HER???? WAS IT WILLINGLY????
LIKE I KNOW CREAM AND VANILLA IS THERE BUT LIKE. THE FACT THAT HE'S GOING WITH IS INSANE ON IT'S OWN. Like he always made some other excuse or refused her if Amy asked him to go on a date and I don't want to look to far into things but it's a big deal to me that he agreed. They would probably make the excuse that they were just hanging out but then there's. There's the bottom one.
Look at the way Sonic is looking at her. Everyone else has their eyes closed, even Amy. But Sonic is just looking at her. And holding her hand. On god this is insane I am going so insane
I can't wait to read this I'm gonna die of happiness 😭😭

GET THEM TO THERAPY ALREADY AND NO I WOULD NOT SHUT UP ABOUT IT
Can we get Surge and Kit to therapy?!
Like seriously, they need it a lot. It's very clear that they have been abused and traumatized and the amount of effects it has on them. And don't get me started on that damn Starline hallucination in issue 54 just... It sends shivers down my spine.

It's really funny that the only mainline issue of IDW that Sonic Prime was advertised on the covers of was issue 55, since 2/3 of its covers were Surge having a breakdown

"Surge the Tenrec is a walking disaster, but she’s our walking disaster."
Tumblr media
With only one more issue to go, the “Overcharged” arc is drawing to a close.
By way of summary, most of this arc has featured the new antagonist Surge getting into fights and then losing them.
Using a piece of stolen Eggman tech called the Dynamo Cage, Surge has been supercharging her powers to put herself on equal footing (power-wise) with other Sonic characters—and then losing whatever fights she has with them.
Given everything that has happened so far, the name “Overcompensated” may be better suited for the story.
