So... Dimirti is still a floating head in the future?

Well I guess I can't complain. It's 2009 and I'm STILL waiting for my Jeston floating car!

To be honest, this isn't as bad as I thought.

Huh? Dimirti not wanting to witness another cycle of Echidna lovelessness? Straaaaaange. But Intriguing n_n

So, how long is the M:25YL story supposed to dominate Sonic Universe?

Four issues, same as the Shadow story. Then Knuckles will have a four part story arc

It's not really that strange. He was trying to get the DL back into normal echidna society and talk things out way back in #108. He was "dying" for a long, long time and eventually let Finitevus make him into a head-in-a-fishbowl to preserve him until he could become Enerjak and fix himself (which turned out to be a lie, and he figured it out). He only went to Eggman initially because he felt the Kingdom of Acorn wasn't doing enough to stop Finitevus/Enerjak, and then only stuck around because Lien-Da dragged the rest of her people into service under Eggman; he was just trying to protect the remaining members of the DL while they're stuck in a bad situation.

In short, he's been mellowing out for a long while. Another few decades and he's probably come to realize what a waste the whole conflict was.

TR: Sonic Universe is currently working in four-issue arcs.

That's when you should umm die! He's been around far too long, he's seen what time can do to family ties. and well you can't do much as a head!

Surprised there isn't a full review here. It's been out almost a week.

Not going to be the first to write a Full it but here are some points:

- After the Preview Pages Lara-Su becomes depressed about her recent failure. Dimitri surprisingly gives her some words of encouragement. It seems he really does want the feud to end.

- Tails is captured pretty dang easily by the Dark Prescience. I think he gets a line and a partial line in before he's knocked unconscious. Mina gets the kids to safety, goes back to save Tails, and is too captured. Melody and Skye are split between helping mom and following her orders (go someplace safe).

- Silver drops another hint about the supposed traitor to the Freedom Fighters. He grows suspicious because Sally said she was the one who encouraged him to disband them during peacetime but backs off of it. Hm.

- I called what happened when it was revealed the royal family's maid was a female echinda play from play. Meh. She got Silver before being taken down. I'm more surprised the Dark Prescience uses sleeping gas guns over anything. Not even a taser?

- At this point Sonic and Sally have a little argument over what to do. It ends with Sonic winning out and a kiss. Sally drags Silver and the kids into the Panic Room where they'll probably be locked up for the rest of the arch. Bah.

- Sonic heads around to take care of the Dark Prescience only to find Lara-Su already did that. Almost. Now they're good. It's too late for them to stop Lien-Da. All they can do is fall back for now.

- Just outside they find Skye and Melody Prower who are almost too distraught to tell Sonic what happened. Lara-Su joined them in bawling and Sonic tells them all to calm down and clam up. He assures them they'll fix this somehow but they need a plan first. Lara-Su suggests they go over her boyfr-Argyle's house to regroup.

- Now that the Royal Family and the Prowers are out of the way Lien-da's free to open the capsule containing Shadow. Hope Kintobor gets a mention here. Apparently she's still alive.

Verdict: I can't wait for the Knuckles Arch. FINITEVUS might be there.
