lord have mercy on those meet at the ring of sacrifice.

Thrash: “YOU KNOW THEY SAY ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL! BUT YOU LOOK AT ME AND LOOK AT KNUCKLES THE ECHIDNA AND YOU SEE THAT STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE! SEE, NORMALLY IF YOU GO ONE ON ONE WITH ANOTHER WRESTLER, YOU GOT A 50/50 CHANCE OF WINNING! BUT I’M A GENETIC FREAK AND I’M NOT NORMAL! SO YOU GOT A 25 PERCENT, AT BEST, AT BEAT ME! THEN YOU ADD SONIC THE HEDGEHOG TO THE MIX, YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING DRASTIC GO DOWN! SEE THE 3 WAY AT SACRIFICE, YOU GOT A 33 1/3 CHANCE OF WINNING. BECAUSE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG KNOWS HE CAN’T BEAT ME AND HE’S NOT EVEN GONNA TRY! SO KNUCKLES THE ECHIDNA, YOU TAKE YOUR 33 AND A THIRD CHANCE, MINUS MY 25 PERCENT CHANCE AND YOU GOT A 8 1/3 CHANCE OF WINNING AT SACRIFICE! BUT THEN YOU TAKE MY 75 PERCENT CHANCE OF WINNING, IF WE WAS TO GO ONE ON ONE, AND THEN ADD 66 2/3 PERCENTS, I GOT A 141 2/3 CHANCE OF WINNING AT SACRIFICE! SEE KNUCKLES, THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE! AND THEY SPELL YOUR DISASTER AT SACRIFICE!”

IDW and Archie Sonic are equally good, one in one category, the other in another category.

IDW has amazing and beautiful art style. Props to the artists and everyone there!

And Archie has amazing story arcs that make me dread every time I continue reading them (or recounting them). Everyone except Penders did an amazing job!

Combine those two together and you have a cool mix of both!

To be clear, I'm more into Archie Pre-SGW than Post-SGW, so that's a bias that I can't get rid of. If you like Post-SGW, I don't blame you, but do be aware that I will focus more on Pre-SGW than Post-SGW!

remember when archie sonic made the echidnas british colonizers and not only were n*zi echidnas introduced but the guys they were actively being racist against (the dingoes) were portrayed as pissy bad guys, "appropriated" the echidna's technology (despite the echidnas themselves appropriated their land) because they "couldn't create technology of their own" and also more n*zi caricatures too

and then the spirit of one of their colonizers banished them to desert superhell

The hunt for Ixis Naugus would be coming to an end. After pushing deep into the Northamer continent’s northern wilderness, almost to the frost covered arctic region. There were precious few places left for Naugus to run to as the irradiated zone offered nothing more than death for him and Ultimate. The thought brought a smirk to Jerard’s face as he pressed on with Geoffrey and Grievous. They were close to the end of this.

There was a consideration of if this was going to end with a bang, or a whimper…likely the latter. This wasn’t some big event.

This was clean up.

“What are we going to do after this then, huh?”

“Head back, turn in a report and be ready in time for Harmony’s Birthday. Keeping on Naugus’ behind has been worth it to make sure he doesn’t return as a threat, so, now it’s about finishing it.” Jerard would point out to the skunk.

Geoffrey would think about it. “I almost thought it was going to be more grand. I forget how sometimes missions like this don’t really get much fanfare.”

“Well it’s not exactly high profile like a villain attacking a nation. It’s just driving out a fox from their hole.”

“I struggle to understand why you keep using phrases like that. Isn’t your adopted brother a hedgefox?”

“The analogy stands. What? Do you want me to say skunk instead?”

“Ugh…never mind. Let’s get this over with.”

The lair they would come across wasn’t grand, but it wasn’t humble either. It was a small fort that seemed to be crumbling in places. It was definitely new from the lack of weathering. Just poorly crafted. “Does this wizard just have a poor understanding of infrastructure?”

Finally, IT'S DONE. When i heard that there was supposed to be an anti-Chaotix group but they only went as far as calling them the Orderix i was like "well don't mind if i do" and these guys are the result, maybe i'll do an individual page for each. Also that "D" gave me more trouble than a letter should have.

@secr3trings said: WHAT — HE CAN DO THAT?? HELLO??

It's sort of based off a lot of different factors - but just to use one example, Classic Sonic (who you'd think would be relatively weaker than his older counterparts) was strong enough to break a gigantic chain which was able to tether Little Planet (an object big and dense enough to have its own gravitational pull) to the Earth/Mobius in a single shot.

Thank Gaia her father didn't have a problem with her dating Sonic back in the day.

Elias: What are the idiots doing?!

Geoffrey: He tried to kill me, Elias! The constant fights against Eggman's forces made him insensitive to violence!

Antoine: Can you believe in this guy?!

Elias: I can't believe you tried to run him over!

Antoine: Oh, please, as if you never thought about doing that!

Antoine: Don't hate me just because I lived the dream!

you sent me down the Sonic name rabbit hole and the misinformation is even more stupid then originally intended.

Archie Sonics Middle name being Maurice had only appeared twice in comic form, once as a definite joke and once as a dubious joke (hard to say if it was serious since it doubled as a throw back joke) but Maurice was kinda an inside joke for the most part and they even poked fun at it in one of the Sonic Prime adverts.

Olgilvie is where it gets stupid. Sonics 'first name' was never given in canon but was allegedly posted on Penders own website, saying that he intended it to be his first name but never actually applied it. I say allegedly because finding actual proof is basically impossible. There's no screenshots of the website, Penders never posted about it on social media and there doesn't appear to be any interviews with Penders saying so either. It is entirely possible that this was just a made up rumour/someones personal head canon posted on a mid 90s forum that spun out of control.

yeah i definitely think his middle name being maurice was just a joke at first and it was only mentioned by the characters themselves twice that i remember, but there were also multiple character profiles for sonic that mentioned his middle name being maurice and/or sonic not being his birth name, so it Was intended to be canon. but again the same cannot be said for olgilvie, i cant remember a single time the name was ever mentioned in the comic and other writers have said that it isnt considered canon

as far as penders himself talking about this goes, i actually did manage to find a couple tweets of his that mention it but theyre actually very recent and in response to someone asking about it, i still cant find the original source for this claim anywhere. but i do have some stuff to say about the tweets so.

part of the conversation is cut out because i didnt wanna post screenshots of some random persons tweets, but basically someone was asking where he originally confirmed this, where the inspiration for the name came from, and if anyone else used it. which as you can see he didnt really answer that first question. and he also says he DID use the name in one issue, but hes blatantly wrong here because issue 53 doesnt say sonics name is olgilvie, just that his birth name isnt sonic and his middle name is maurice. so hes definitely misremembering some details here

now im not saying this is actually what happened but wouldnt it be so funny if penders never intended for his name to be olgilvie specifically but someone on the internet just made it up and it became so widespread that penders himself even believed it and thats why no one not even him can provide the source for where this was originally stated
