I like the Knuckles cover of SU#9. Although it would have been better if Knux had some cool looking background.
Sonic looks like he's pouncing on a chili dog.
Well now see...this Sonic Universe issue looks mighty interesting. I miss the good ol Doc though.
must buy sonic U #9....cover so awsome.
as for sonic #206, I pray Lien-da does the right thing for once, I love the legion I would hate to see them doomed! But either way i guess it would give her some character development.
Meh, I think both the covers for SU and StH are quite underwhelming to be honest. However the stories seem to be awesome; the backup in StH more so than the main in the book!
I wants a free legion!
I wants a dead one. D:
And I... I... really DO think that Sonic is getting the jump on a free-roaming frankfurter. Or perhaps... he's finally come to the realization that Sally doesn't wear pants. 😮
I wants a free legion!
I Second that notion!
& boo to toby for wanting more echidna's dead!
(don't make me get out the cane young man!
)
I've been collecting Archie Sonic comics since #57 sometime back in 1998 and have rarely missed an issue since then. Best times of my life back then (so far, at least). Anyway, the cover of #206 looks cool yet slightly odd due to Sonic drooling.
The drool does look a bit odd. I also wonder when Spaz is going to give that pose a rest for a while.
Lovin' the Knuckles cover. Could use a bit more of a background, though. Can't wait to see my favorite villain again.
Yes..but then I feel slightly offput. This has Knuckles Original Series written all over it again. Going into a desert to find strange villian...Vector left in charge..Vector gets jumped by someone... X_X It s happening again!
