I spoke to a man at Too Many Games who color'd the Sonic Archie comic. He says they're in limbo. No official talk of it being canceled.

>indefinite hiatus
So it's fucking cancelled.

Just like Dan Vs.

I hope they just cancel it at this point.

So is Mega Man.

He's dead, Jim.

"You're welcome!"

fuck off, mega man was planned to be cancelled and was explicitly mentioned it was ending. the sonic comics just got cut off all of a sudden due to legal reasons which are being worked out. stop comparing the two. the situations are vastly different

Limbo means "We don't have to admit it's dead"

Are there actually idiots who still think it's not cancelled?

Is... this a joke? Am I supposed to feel humor or pity?

Looks like Cleopatra isn't the only queen of da Nile.

Shut up Boco

These 3D models are just teasing me

>best girl will never appear again and will be forgotten forever
damn...

at least we have sonic boom... for now.

right faction, but you got the wrong eggboss.

>I'm not that kind of doctor.

Well it had a good run. I mean who would had said this would last as long as it did?

I only ever watched the show and read the comic for Sally's feet.

I apologize for nothing.

Issue 300 is right fucking there though!

This is why your comic deserves to be canned. It's divine punishment.

I agree

...but they never show her feet.

dude,is dead,accept it,just move on,this,this thing you are doing to yourself is not healthy

They do a couple of times.

I can't move on

Can we stop pretending that these stupid comics are any good? They sucked and were filled with mostly uninteresting stories and because of Sega's mandates? Stagnant as fuck because the status quo could never be challenged.

It's no IDW TMNT. The only purpose this comic series had is keep reminding people Sally, Bunnie, Nicole, Lupe, etc. exist so more porn of them got made. And even then, it doesn't compare to the thousands of pics of pornography that the Videogame Sonic Gals get.

well he's just a colorer
maybe they're releasing them in black and white

That and the pre-mandate comic fell off the rails hard. I can't wait for Mania's release, it's gonna be something else.

The freelancers likely don't know anything that hasn't already been stated.

>that picture
Shame I recognize this meme

I know at this point Ken probably had no actual influence on Archie deciding not to renew the license, at least according to most recent developments, but is anyone still hoping he dies soon?

>Archie deciding not to renew the license
Let's be real here. Sega pulled the plug because of the extra round of litigation, Archie had no choice in the matter. If Archie didn't want Sonic, they wouldn't keep such a tight lid on things and would come right out and say the comic is done.

If Archie claims it's not the "direction they want" it is nothing but damage control. Why would they ever turn their nose up at another comic under their care, it's pure gravy to whatever other avenues of income they are getting. It would never impede Riverdale or whatever the fuck making them money.

Plus why end it so abruptly, for that matter? They could have chosen a much better milestone to stop after if it was something completely under their control.

The only other possible explanation for the subterfuge is if Sega didn't want it to end, and were the ones pushing talks ahead. And with Archie getting them in MORE legal trouble, I sincerely doubt they're clawing to their pantleg BEGGING Archie to stay.

When was part 3 of Mega Drive supposed to be released again?

Classicucks should be gassed

real shame. she was getting another issue

I'm still thinking they're going to let it run until the milestones issues as one last hurrah. It's by far the longest running video game comic ever, that's got to count for something right?

Good riddance.
Now if only they get rid of everything else.

...

Seriously, I love the Eggman we have nowadays. I was one of those dudes who thought Robotnik from SatAM could never be topped, but the comics and recent games have changed that for the better.

>I was one of those dudes who thought Robotnik from SatAM could never be topped
Except Long John Baldry already happened by then.

This is the biggest insult. That, and literally every book ended without closing the current arc. Mega Drive hurts the most.

>muh waifus

This is exactly why I'm glad the comic is getting cancelled. You faggots ruin everything.

Did they ever explain how Sonic got his powers? Or did he just happen to be born with them for no real reason? Also what about his parents? The only background/origin I remember sonic ever having was when he had a brother and sister in one of the old cartoons and their mom was the queen of mobius.

When are we getting a Sonichu animated series?

Chris got a hedgehog pregnant while on adderal and speed

Isnt it canceled?
They even made a joke about online petitions.

>Did they ever explain how Sonic got his powers? Or did he just happen to be born with them for no real reason?

In most continuities he's born with super speed as a natural ability and Chaos emeralds empower anybody not just him. In the Fleetway comics he got his speed and blue color in a lab accident.

>Also what about his parents? The only background/origin I remember sonic ever having was when he had a brother and sister in one of the old cartoons and their mom was the queen of mobius.

Archie revealed his parents, his father was fatally injured and roboticized by his brother (Uncle Chuck) to save his life, but ended up making him a mindless robot since Robotnik tampered with it. His mom was captured and roboticized later. They showed up in present day sometime after issue #50 with their free will restored but still roboticized. Many issues later his mom and Uncle Chuck were de-roboticized, but his father wasn't since restoring him would also restore his fatal injuries.

Thanks to new Sega mandates his parents were deleted from history.

>implying people don't care more about Classic than the sloppy shits those jokes at Sonic Team spews out every year

I wonder if this was gonna be a Studiopolis arc and if so, it would have been cool to see a Mania zone get into the comics.

I'm guessing you're talking about Matt Herms?

Really wanted to fucking go to TMG this year again but couldn't

I feel bad for all the people who were working on the comic and going to cons because they probably get asked about it all day but they can't say anything.

>Stagnant as fuck because the status quo could never be challenged.
The status quo changed five or six times over the course of the comic. Please actually read the damn thing before making stupid posts like this.

It was supposed to come out in March.

Sonic Universe finished the Chaotix arc they were doing at least.

The second season is still ongoing but Cartoon Network fucked it over by moving it to Boomerang so they have more space in the schedule for Teen Titans Go reruns. Not many people seem to care about this show anymore so I doubt they will bother with a third season.

>Not many people seem to care about this show anymore so I doubt they will bother with a third season
there are other places in the world aside America, user

So, this comic is like a follow up to that 90's cartoon?

Reminder Barb or Chris himself smothered Bob with a pillow

>every year
>Hasn't released a major Sonic game in 4 years

>I'm glad people are gonna lose their jobs because fuck waifufags

>I was one of those dudes who thought Robotnik from SatAM could never be topped
>Implying SatAM Robotnik was good.

And this negates my point of Sonic Team being shit at producing video games?

Why should I care about those people?

I don't know, 2 out of the last 3 Sonic games were pretty fun. And I'm looking forward to Forces, too.

I'm not saying you should,but wanting a comic to die because "muh waifufags" is pretty stupid.

I believe it's a combination of the two.

The fall DID start with SEGA unpleased after the extra round of litigation, but rather than pull the plug, they decided to raise the price of the licence to force Archie to quality control their shit.

Archie, however, did decide it was low priority because Riverdale is re-freshing the Archie brand in their eyes so they now think they "don't need Sonic".

You forget the current CEO of the company has as MASSIVE hard-on for the Archie comics, and ever since his strugglings to shoo the other CEO (Aka "Penis-yelling Lady") from the creative control he has been constantly bluttering how he wants to modernize Archie. As such, the fact that Riverdale exists and is doing well is basically his fucking dream come true.

So basically, I think its 50/50. Archie's ego rising up due to Riverdale AND because SEGA picked up on their bullshit.

Why?

They'd also probably raise the price because this is a big year for Sonic as well.

It looks fun

That too. the thing is, if Sonic was still the only one bringing money to Archie like it was before, they'd have accepted the higher price no problem in order to survive.

But now that Riverdale is popular, the CEO doesn't care because, well, he is a fan of Archie, not Sonic.

Only once it's taken to modern Fire Emblem/weebshit levels, otherwise nothing wrong with some appealing females.

>riverdale is popular

reminder that archie's financial shitshow started with a failed kickstarter for an Archie reboot.

It actually predates the SatAM cartoon by nearly a year, initially using prototype designs, then gradually incorporating elements/designs from the show itself while it was on the air and afterwards. Then it just never stopped running, became a bit closer to the games after Adventure, a bit more closer after gaining its current head writer 10 years ago, became MUCH closer to the games after a hard reboot a few years back (but still keeping the SatAM characters and adding in some previously-unused AoStH elements), and now it's finally come to an end...probably.

I mean the TV series. And for the CEO, the fact people are talking about Archie beyond just as the butt of a joke is fine with him.

Again, the guy is a fucking nutjob for Archie. Noone at the helm currently has any braincells, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a hole.
