I liked Cammy Gaiden

Did he smash?

She did
Sauce is Round 08

How much do you like Street Fighter? The comics stay pretty close to the game cannon, but the art can be a tragedy to look at sometimes.

the porn ones with lots of riyona yeah

No.
An accident knocked him unconscious.
Then she pretty much raped him while he was out.

Read the Sakura ones.

If you liked 'em, keep going. If not, well... you've just read the best ones.

Fuck, I meant to spoiler tag that. Oh well.

I'm actually really curious about the canon. Anywhere I can read the true canon? I keep hearing Super Bestfriends namedrop some gamefaqs txt but then I immediately forget about it

Zangief is gay.

Are you people talking just talking about mangos? What about Udon's SF comics?

Well now I need to know where that one's from.

I'm pretty sure they keep talking about this:
gamefaqs.com/ps/198819-street-fighter-alpha-3/faqs/14699

It's not exactly up-to-date.

...

Round 05
It's from the same series as OP

And the Ibuki ones.

Or did he mean these? Origin of Karin, btw. Pretty cool for the author his character made it into the games.

The trades for them are kinda weird.

They're all named street fighter 2 even though not all the series are called that.

>y

Udon put out the first 12 issues of their run in webcomic form. Test that out and see if you like.

Yeah, the art for the Alpha era was nice.

Then it got to the Street Fighter II era, the actual tournament they built up to, and the art took a nosedive.

The true canon is always just the games, as of the most recent game.

I don't get Sakura's deal. She tags along with Ryu the hobo for a couple of weeks, learns to throw a hadoken or two and then goes back home.

And then somehow she makes it her goal in life to find the guy again, basically making her entire world spin around the hobo?

If i remember correctly all Udon comics are not canon.

She wants the shotodick

But shoto characters are for scrubs.

>a couple of weeks

Two months summer vacation in Udon continuity

Also meant she tagged along to Ken's wedding

whos the artist?

>Get his luggage, woman

>Get out of the way, woman

A woman can never be higher on the totem pole than a man's best bro, even if she's his wife.

She's also Guile's sister weirdly enough.
Their holidays must be fun.

I liked the Ibuki and Sakura legends series and the main book until the art changed. Chun Li and Cammy's book where shit and Unlimted has is horrid.

She's guiles WIFE'S sister

>Are the Street Fighter comics worth reading?
Yes, but only one

I've been meaning to read the newer Super Street Fighter series because it takes plsce during the events of Street Fighter III, but am kind of put off by the fact that they put it on hiatus a few weeks ago so they can do Street Fighter vs. Darkstalkers

I think Zangief would have been a gentleman about it. Canon Zangief is very shy around women.

Eh, I actually think it misfires on a lot of characterisations.

What is the source, and is that a boy in the skirt?

yes

Are Rose and Gen the only confirmed dead characters in Udon?

You know as a kid I always wondered "If there's an EVIL Ryu how come they never tried a GOOD Ryu"

and now I know why. Because it's fucking retarded.

Evil Ryu isn't even really EVIL. He's just a Ryu that gave into the killing intent. More... Chaotic Neutral Ryu than Evil Ryu.

No he isn't.

I'm confused about SF canon in regards to whether the creators can make up their minds if Ryu and Chun Li are a thing or not.

They're not. Chun might be interested in him but Ryu has no desire to start a romantic relationship.

>He's just a Ryu that gave into the killing intent.

How is that not evil?

The same way Akuma's not evil. Being an asshole to your friends and being willing to kill opponents isn't evil, just mean.

I WANT ZANGIEF TO PIN ME DOWN, RIDE MY FACE, AND LET ME SNIFF HIS SWEATY ASS

Seems about right. You'd think as Ryu approaches being 40 he'd want to do more in life than train.

Ryu's already married though.

to the martial arts

If you enjoy Street Fighter then yes

But Ryu sucks at it.

Ken barely trains and he's basically better at it.

He's not basically better. He is definitively better. He's the two time world champion.

Exactly, which kind of fucks up the moral of "RYU TRAINS SO HARD".

Guess hard work doesn't mean shit in SF, eh Dan?

He's just a really lousy husband.
See Goku

Ryu's problem is that he's too vanilla.
Ken, Akuma and Gouken have different variations on their style that makes them canonly better.

Ken incorporates fire and more spinny shit, Akuma gives into the murderous intent, and Gouken's mastered the shoryuken and the denjin hadouken and he can empty his soul to survive raging demons and shit.

Really the only notable thing Ryu has done is fuck up Sagat a few times and have Bison after him because he has the potential to turn into evil Ryu a much stronger form.

He's shown to be a pretty good husband in 4 and 3.

I suppose that's the problem of needing Ryu to be vanilla friendly. Still, you'd think he'd have something to call his own by now.

At least his 5 alternate design makes him look more unique.

I've done some searchin and couldnt find nothin. what comic did this happen in?

Name a single female sexier than Mika. You can't.

>paint alex red and blue
>call him gil

i thought those never got translated

I am suprised to hear that the swimsuit special was great (especialy poison)!

Are we restricting this to humans

Only the hentai ones.

The normal series is hit and miss. More miss than hits.

yes /tg/

Right here. Because She's got a huge cock..

From the same franchise, Ankles.

Well fuck you i'm making a list of nonhumans anyway
>Zatanna Zatara
>Chantinelle
>Trixie Lulamoon
>Samus Aran
>Hanazuki
>princess bubblegum

Thats just off the top of my head give me some time and im sure i can come up with more.

>zantana
>samus
>not human

Does Juri appear?
If yes, does she have interactions with Cammy and Chun-Li?

Zattana is homo magi do you really think a human could cast spells that often and that frivolously and come out healthy, happy and with a decent social life, the woman casts a spell to dress herself for fucks sake.

Samus is a bird.

It's outdated, SFIV and V are soft reboots. Here's the basics of what you need to know.

Street Fighter: Sagat crowns himself the biggest dick G and starts a fighting tournament to prove it. Originally lost to Ryu, but was retconned as Ryu getting his ass kicked, Sagat going to help him up, and Ryu chimping out with the Satsui no Hado, shoryukening the scar into Sagat's chest.

SF Alpha: Ryu travels around trying to get control of the Satsui no Hado. Shadoloo and Bison becomes a thing. Charlie gets "killed" by Bison. Bison gets "killed" by Ryu sets up the stage for SF II.

SF II: Bison is back, but way weaker, starts his own tournament with all the world warriors people actually give a shit about. Gets "killed" by Akuma.

SF IV: Big retcon, with Bison "dead" one of his experiments, Seth, forms his own organization and starts his own tournament. Seth actually seems to be dead for now, can't remember who killed him, but it seems to have stuck so far. Juri is introduced and footfags rejoice. Canonical first appearance of several of the characters that premiered in SFIII.

SFV: Bison is back and stronger than ever planning to take over the world. Luckily Karin and Rashid's wild adventure puts a stop to his plans. Also Nash and Ryu are there. Oh, and Akuma apparently stopped giving a shit about that lethal disease Gen had and murdered him.

SFIII: With Illuminati rising from the ashes of the fallen Shadoloo this game is canonically the farthest in the future and likely to be retconned to fuck and back.

it is on sad panda
just go there and search for Round 8

Why can't other fighting games get this amount of supplementary material? GG, Skullgirls, and/or Tekken needs this kind of love

If i remember correctly alex is a clone, or at least is related somehow, to gill and the illuminatty.

In Gill's end in SF3 third strike you turn Alex into a copy of yourself.
video bellow:
youtu.be/CWcjRmWhNZw

Would you, Sup Forums?

Probably because SF is the only fighting game with actual recognition right now, as it has been for a very long time.

Every other fighter is either dead or not even on the same level.

People are still thinking Tekken 7 will bring more people but i personally played the game in japan and i doubt people will be interested in the gam since it barely changed. It has akuma now so people might give it a try but i don't see they sticking with it for long.

He doesn't like women

Capcom money. They love marketing tie-ins and shameless merch grabs. Guilty Gear is comparatively much smaller (the original devs only just got it back for Xrd; BlazBlue was a filler franchise while they were stuck in a legal battle) and Skullgirls literally made no profits at all (the Konami bullshit ate so much money that they ultimately broke even).

>Every other fighter is either dead or not even on the same level
Well, yeah. Street Fighter is to fightan what Doom was to shootan or Gradius was to shmups. What 1v1 horizontal fighting franchise, barring Mexico's love of KoF or Tekken during the PS1-era, has that kind of recognition. For fuck's sake, the EVO top 8 was on ESPN last year!

The Alpha stuff is really, really good. Some of the gaiden/Legends comics though are kinda hit and miss. Not in terms of art or anything, but characterization--Karin is just a cheating bitch compared to her delightfully insane rival persona from the manga that introduced her and Ibuki's personal Legends series portrays Makoto as being nearly one dimensional.

The Alpha comics add some depth to the game's backstory and in particular, Ryu being a mentor to Sakura was a highlight (especially compared to the bullshit anime movie that didn't even allow them to meet, let alone train.)

I wasn't even aware that the SFII comic *finished*, let alone had a nose dive in quality; the comic went on hiatus as far as I knew...

Street Fighter is the actual OG of fightan. GG is great and it does have a following but it won't be as big, and no matter how beautiful and mechanically sound Skullgirls is it won't have that big fandom and is a small indie game from the US.

All I want is a GG anime, even if its BB anime, shit-tier. Slayer alone makes the series GOAT. Who's the closest SF equivalent?

So this is Gill-possessed Alex vs Final Form Ryu?

And didn't they actually have Ryu FINALLY overcome the Sarsui No Hado plot cancer that has been dogging him for multiple games in SF5?
He's now following some sort of meditative state of being instead of RAARGH FIGHTBONER that allows him to face Akuma's Fierceness with Gentle Composure, sort of like the martial artist concept of counter strong with soft then soft with strong.

Ryu and chun-li were never a thing you shipping faggot, not every series has to have a 'main guy' pairing up with the female cast member.

Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie was the greatest tie-in anime to a fight game of all time.

OF ALL TIME!

It was so good the games basically cribbed all its plot details and concepts for itself

youtube.com/watch?v=kCfQrVcQwe8

yeah they finally got around to doing SF3 story.

Except instead of using the characters from SF3 they used the SF2 cast because heaven forbid we stop masturbating to Chun Li for a goddamn second.

Google seems to think this is Cartoon Network related

Closest to Slayer? I never really looked into the story mode of GG so my basic understanding is he's not the primary villian, I'd say maybe Claw.

You got to be a big faggot not to suck Poison's Cock.
I wish the SFV story mode like this movie.

They're just good friends.

Chunners is doomed to be foreveralone.

Ryu masters the basics to levels Ken doesn't.

Ryu trains a single strike over and over and over again, Ken figures out how to do it, adds some explosions, and then moves on.

Okay.

He's not a villain, I'd say he's closer to Gen or Oro.

Your complaints are valid, but Chun-Li was in SF3.

>Seth actually seems to be dead for now, can't remember who killed him
Ryu killed him in Ties That Bind, didn't he?

...

You are talking total crap man, He's trained the base techniques 10,000 times instead of learning 10,000 kicks. Plus he does have moves the other fighters don't.

>Official World Karate Tournament sport titles
>Actually mattering to street fighters
They don't even let you shoot electricity at people.

Poison doesn't have a dick tho
