The latest American release date for Chu Chu Rocket, Sonic Team’s latest game, is now March 2, 2000! This means online gaming may be as early as Chu Chu Rocket comes out! Cross your fingers!

Nobody has reported it, so I may as well make use of the submission section here to tell everyone that the fantastic 173rd issue of Egmont Fleetway’s Sonic the Comic is currently lurking on the shelves of newsagents around the country! It’s easily recognisable for the fantastic cover with Sonic trapped by the Plax. It […]

There is a problem with On-Line petitions. I am saying this in responce from all the current petitions for SatAM. Recently, several On-Line petitions were sent to LucasFilm LTD to persuade the company to release Star Wars: Episode I on DVD. Unfortunetly, the company threw the letter and petition right in the trash. Why? On […]

How often have you wanted your art talent to be recognized? Ever dreamed of being in a movie? Now’s your chance. A group of people who are wonderful at animation and fan made anime have come together to bring us a Sonic-Related movie A Super Sonic Destiny! I have seen this movie in action and […]

Shows have come back and been known to have new episodes before. Rugrats had no new episodes for 5 or 6 years then made a comeback and even got a movie. Ghostbusters were on for a while, went off then came back with the “New” Gostbusters. Doug on Nickelodeon is another example. He had no […]

I’ve started programming for a new Sonic RPG. Zifei Wu of SonicNEXT will be the graphics artist. This game will definitely feature Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Vector, Espio, and Mighty as playable characters. Probable playable characters will include Ray, Amy, and Nack. This will be a SegaSonic RPG and you can expect appearances by nearly every […]

I have encoded some of my SatAM videos that I have. These are without USA cuts so that makes Perfect Chaos the first site to have SatAM vids without USA cuts! Originally, I was going for quality as suggested by the poll with each file being about 33MB but I didn’t for a few reasons: […]

If you signed the petition and gave me your email address, this message

Subject: Re: Knuckles the Echidna comics

Dear Katrice,

Thanks for the e-mail and petition. It is very difficult for us to
disappoint fans, especially those as loyal as you and the other readers
who signed the Save Knuckles petition. However, as a businessman, I have
a responsibility to the shareholders of my Company to see that the Company
remains profitable. Unfortunately, the sales of Knuckles were no longer
profitable and we had no choice but to discontinue the title. I guess
that part of the reason was distribution and rest assured that we
discussed this with our distributor. We kept the title going as long as
we could, but losing thousands of dollars an issue is not good business
sense. Remember, we have to pay the writers and artists, the seperators
and the printer, as well as the shipping charges. The revenue on the
sales was constantly below these charges and we had to stop the losses.
I hope you understand our position.
Michael Silberkleit

What this response is saying that the only chance we have of getting
Knuckles back is to make the issues that they have already published
sell. Check out SOK's section on where to get Knuckles comics,
especially for those who live outside the US and Canada, if you're missing
issues. After you checked the section, if none of those options work for
you, email me because I might be able to help out. If you have the full
series, you can still help out. If anyone knows of sources of Knuckles
comics that I don't have listed, please tell me so that I can add them.
Whether or not you have all the issues, we can all do this: Get anyone
you can hooked on Knuckles and get them to buy the back issues.

For anyone who thinks this is hopeless, don't think that. That's when
Knuckles is gone for good. I'll keep trying to get Knuckles back as long
as people keep supporting the petition. I've based this site and what I'm
doing off of Save Our Sailors and it took them a year and a half to work
and they're still going. It's only been three months so far and I plan to
see this through no matter how long it takes, but I need the support of
the fans. So, like the last time I got a response, I'm still collecting names.
