I got so fucking attached to these guys 🫵

[shoogles]

all my stc stuff

I'm sharing all the plans I had and a lot of the work I did for Sonic the Comic, all in one place. It includes pitches, bibles, and scripts. I may update this later with other scripts and strips. I'll keep you posted.

LINK HERE

I've included comments and annotations on the scripts and I think they're a fun read! After this bumper video is complete (we're getting there) I'd like to produce more comics and writing. It wasn't good for much else but the beginning of the year proved I was capable of this.

Oooh, so we’ve got a Stringer story with art from Kitching (and John Burns) this time. It opens with our villainous duo confirming without a shadow of a doubt that the Emerald Hill Zone is empty. Robotnik takes this better than I thought he would, quickly deciding to move his focus to other zones after some encouragement from Grimer

We get a non-game zone with the interesting note that this place had been largely left alone by Robotnik before now. I like this as a story direction - the Freedom Fighters evacuated Emerald Hill for the safety of the people there, but the consequence is that Robotnik’s now targeting other people who he ignored before. It’s a bit more interesting than just having the heroes win without anything coming of that. Since we know that the Emerald Hill folk will be on the Floating Island for a good long time, I’m sure we’ll see plenty of how the rest of Mobius is affected by this

I’m sorry for posting three full pages in a row, but you gotta respect the panelling and a big cool dinosaur badnik deserves its full reveal

Ouch, embarrassing for Sonic lol

Wait, Tails is where? We’ve not heard anything about Tails visiting the Special Zone up until now and that doesn’t seem to happen in the other stories in this issue. I can only assume that means that this story was perhaps intended to run at a different time than it did

Since this is a Stringer story, we get a surprise appearance from his best boy, Shortfuse. Hey, if it works, it works. I’m never sad to see Shortfuse turn up

I guess the downside of being made out of the strongest metal on the planet is that Robotnik figured he could just make more robots out of that

Shortfuse & Sonic team up, while Amy stuns the big badnik with a bolt from her crossbow. Johnny doesn’t do much, but to be fair on him, there’s not much he really could contribute here with his short-ranged weapon. It’s okay Johnny, when I’m playing Hades Game, I also prefer to use the short-ranged weapons myself

Damn, I didn’t expect Shortfuse to go down that quickly

We end on a cliffhanger, with Sonic about to meet the same fate. Now, I know I’ve said a lot of times that I’m not huge on some of the robot designs from outside of the games, but this one is cool! A big robot dinosaur rampaging a city is a pretty universally awesome concept, so I’m enjoying this story and look forward to seeing more of it next time

A drawing of Tekno the Canary and Shortfuse the Cybernik!

These two were great additions to the cast in the comic! I liked Tekno’s more chill attitude and I always liked when they were paired with Amy (no wonder they eventually got together xd) on the side stories. I also just adore their design, it has a neat alternative vibe on it!

Shortfuse was also pretty good; I liked that they decided to introduce a character that got almost roboticized by Robotnik that eventually joined the freedom fighters to fight against him, basically kind of like Bunnie in Satam/Archie. The way he was always introducing himself in monologue was kinda goofy though, but it didn’t really bother me xd I just find it a bit funny.

I still have struggles when it comes to coloring, so the colors may look a bit saturated here IDK🫠

[reddy-64]

one palette many character (everything created by eggman or his empire uses this color palette, including zones and bad futures !)
