Sonic the Hedgehog

I never really gave it that much thought before...now I can't stop wondering whether he has spikes on his hands or not. So my question for you is, what do you think?

(Video link is here, since I can't do both a custom thumbnail and a link.) So evidently, Ken Penders is making a reprint of Mobius: 25 years later. After almost a decade of owning his OCs he got back from Sega, he's finally going to be doing something with them...and it's a reprint of the old Archie comics, specifically, the Light Mobius Arc, issues 131-144. Granted, he will be adding on a section to replace what would be the normal end of 144 that diverges from the canon ending so that it'll tie into his Lara-Su series, but there's a lot in there that he simply doesn't own.

Originally, I was only going to post the video here, but I had a lot of questions after watching it. Was he even the one who drew the art for this comic? Was he going to attempt any superficial changes to avoid getting sued? I did some digging beyond the video, and found that he has his own website dedicated to this thing.

So he didn’t draw most of the art in the comics, and a lot of it seems to have been drawn by other artists, like Steven Butler. I rooted around a bit in the archives on Pender’s site, and it seems like he’s planning on redrawing at least a few panels for his comic—like this one here:

(In case it wasn’t obvious, the art on the right is by Ken Penders, the left is by Steven Butler.) He said here that he redrew this scene to better match the context for his new series, so it seems like he might be doing more than just reprinting the old comics. Which honestly...I guess it’s good that he’s not profiting off of other artists’ work without compensation, but at the same time...the new art is uncanny as hell.

Also, it wasn’t really clear just from looking at his website whether he was going to rename any of the other Sonic characters not owned by him (e.g., Rotor, Sonic), or if he was just going to keep their names. But in some of the archives, Knuckles was reffered to a K'nox, so it’s possible the other characters were changed too.

There's been a lot of discourse about this lately, and it'll be...interesting, to say the least, to hear about what the final comic will look like (cause I sure as heck ain't buying it!)

(I'd like to note that I've never actually read the Light Mobius arc myself, and most of my research came from Ken Pender's website, the r/FuckKenPenders* subreddit, and, of course, the linked video.

I made some evil cookies, from the recipe written by Doctor Eggman! In the recipe, you make two batches of cookies. There’s only one difference between the two, and they are otherwise indistinguishable. The good batch, has chocolate chips, and the other, the evil batch, has chocolate-covered raisins to humiliate and show up your enemies. Just don't mix up which is good and which is evil if you intend to share with friends. Otherwise...well...just look at the last two pictures.

Howdy all! Some of my friends and I have been doing some planning for a Sonic themed platform fighter. We're still in the planning phase, because I want to make sure I can form a team before moving forward with development.

That said, if it interests you, why don't you come join our Discord server? We can discuss plans, and perhaps you could even join our team. We're particularly looking for people who can help make the animations. We have one guy for that already, but many hands make light work.

I'm planning on taking care of the programming, by the way.

I was looking around to see if there were any good Sonic fangames in the platform fighter genre, a la Super Smash Bros. I found a few traditional fighters, but I much prefer the simpler controls of platform fighters.

Anyone know of any they can recommend? If not, I might look into making my own. Not sure yet.

This video is about the Chao Garden specifically rather than just like, Chao in general. I had no idea the depth of the mechanic.

~~Notably this video was featured at the end of Jenny Nicholson's 3 hour epic "THE Vampire Diaries Video"~~

anyways I love this video I made my spouse watch it and now she wants a dreamcast (redream will have to do for now though)

I just binged it this weekend, I liked it! What's the general sentiment on it? Good, bad, mid, etc?

I'll try to not be so spoiler-y here but things I liked:

-like, every version of Amy

-rouge being more part of the main cast

-nine. what an edgy lil shit

-sails' name

-knux v other knuckles

-shadow beating sonic's ass on an as-needed basis

-seeing man of action on a show again (I loved Ben10 growing up)

-sonic being a huge fuckup (he's just like me fr)

things I didn't care for:

-that fucking baby. (I thought the babie's robot design was kinda neat though)

-the chaos council in general

As some of you may know, Yuji Naka was arrested for insider trading. He was just sentenced to 2.5 years in prison, 4 years of probation, and the equivalent of $1.2 million in fines.

If you preorder Sonic Superstars you'll get:

• Reversible Cover
• Acryllic Display Stand
• Lego Eggman In Game Skin

Repeat: Not a physical Lego Eggman minifig, but a skin. 🙃

If you're not familiar with Peter Knetter, he's primarily a Sonic YouTuber. While a lot of his videos are shit posts, sometimes he makes some impressive arts and crafts.

Persoanlly I think this makes a good play in the background video.

Anyone looking forward to Sonic Superstars? It's looking like the proper modern sequel to the originals that Sonic 4 should've been.
