Robot fascists, an cult of cybernetic obsessed Echidna Nazis, the remains of Black Arms, an army of Ninjas lead by a chick who has lightning powers, an immortal mammoth, a wizard thats an amalgammation of three spellcasters, his double from a parrel universe who has major daddy issues.
They were annoyed that the job wasn't finished. That's their motivation. Even then the ugly aliens casually mention that while they find the mobians cute, they can't have a half-done genocide, so that must be corrected.
Funny, SU was Sonic SatAM but watered down.
That's rather standard in comics. Hell, there's one even in Bleach, also cat-themed.
That part always made me laugh, like Sally establishes contact with the aliens, ask em not to destroy their world an the aliens just go "Nah, fuck yaz. We're like super superior and cool and you all can suck it"
They sure went hard on the annoying Chrstian Rock though.
Sonic doing glam rock with his siblings like they’re opening for Cinderella. In fucking 1999.
I mean the 90's were still a time where they would try and jackhammer Christian shit downs ones throat through any means and Sonic Underground wasn't any different. Just it was WAY more obnoxious with it.
Was Sonic Underground the patient zero for all those weird evangelical Christian Sonic fanboys?
It's neat art but at the same time HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS MAP WORK IF THEY'RE FOLLOWING THE SA1 PLOT WHICH IS ANGEL ISLAND CRASHING NEAR STATON SQUARE IF STATION SQUARE IS INSIDE ANGEL ISLAND THAT LOOKS LIKE THE SOUTH ISLAND PLANE CRASH HOUSE SONIC LIVES IN FROM THE SONIC OVA
To me it was more funny when they tried to follow the plot for SA2, since some if the plot stuff there so doesnt work in Archie.
I think SU just gave 'em more validation. It wasnt the patient zero, but just gave them this "oh! This blue hedgie and his siblings are for the J man? Heck ye!" nevermind that the Christian songs in SU sucked a cock flavored lollypop.
Doesn't the SA2 one literally go "play the game to know the rest of the story!"?
He shall make a sonic sound…” —Book of Hezekiah 4:20.
Ye it does, however you get 2 issues I believr with one showing badly drawn aircraft carrier and trying to imply that station square has a sea somewhere and a team of anime looking Black Ops guys.
So Station Square is underground but also has an ocean. They couldn’t figure out how to include Central City, eh?
No, thats a fan comic. Basically the plot was the GUN leader gets his hands, I think either the chaos emeralds or Phantom Ruby and he essentially changes reality where the Freedom Fighters are all GUN agents and only Shadow I think has glimpses of what reality was. Im skippy on the artist, but I think they worked at IDW or Archie, key word is Im skippy on that detail.
Why is Shadow dressed like a Vault Dweller? Why is Grand Moff Tarkin leading G.U.N.? I’m supposed to buy this issue based on this cover? This is the sales pitch?
Kinda, really they sort off made it work later down the line, but not by much.
That's just the Framework arc from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I noticed. I SEE YOU.
There was a literal retcon event, but it came too late and made things worse, as the comic was effectively defanged. Flynn's work is overrated and the plans he had for Sally were an extended princess rescue.
To be honest the Sonic Adventure adaptation was such a fucking mess that it was the last "real" adaptation in the comic. Not only did Archie make their own schizophrenic lore with the fifty thousand echidnas and the overlanders which made it impossible for them to make the story work but SEGA also barely gave them the materials to, exact same thing that happened with UK Sonic the Comic. Spaz (who was the only one at Archie that remotely gave a fuck about the source material) managed to snatch a japanese import of the game so that they could use it as a baseline. If you think that the adaptation made no sense, just imagine if this guy wasn't there. Anyway, after this shitshow they simply outright refused to make adaptations anymore and that's why every single one after it ends with "play the game to find out!"
It's likely sci-fi because the games' main antagonist/rival is a fat guy that's technically a reworked version of one of the early protagonist designs visually based on teddy roosevelt who makes wacky robots and cars specifically just to beat up the 3 foot tall blue hedgehog with an attitude.
They did this on the Wii with Sonic and the Secret Rings and Sonic and the Black Knight, the two most RSI-inducing Sonic games ever made.
