While you wait for Sonic HQ’s Fleetway comics section, a site completely dedicated to Fleetway’s Sonic The Comic is already here, brought to you by ex-staff member Doctor Zachary and forum lurker Ed Reynolds: STC:STEM! It features such things as the STC mailing list, an STC online magazine, and more! Go there! 🙂
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: […]

Subject: Re: Knuckles the Echidna comics
Dear Katrice,
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.

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.

According to a report in today’s issue of the Wall Street Journal, SEGA has made a strong gain in the video game markets, pulling away some of the market share from Sony and Nintendo.

In lieu of the recent report of the Sonic SatAM rights being released by USA, I felt I should expand on it a bit more as things were still left a bit hazy and I still kept getting queries on it. First of all – what this means is simply this: SatAM is NOT back […]
We now have the sales figures in, and as of December 31st, the Dreamcast has officially sold 1,550,000 units! This has indeed exceeded all previous expectations. Remember that the original expectation was for the DC to get to 1.5 million by March 31st. In a related story, in Europe, Sega Europe has announced that 650,000 […]
Cartoon Network has bought the rights to air Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. What does this have to do with Sonic? Well, USA has had the contract for TMNT, but they’re dropping the rights to most of their cartoons. Presumably, this would include SatAM. If this is the case, then another network could buy the rights […]
I received my newsetler from IGN yesterday by email. Take a look at this article about what does Sonic Team has in store for the near future: It seems that Sonic Team has a few secrets they’d like to reveal within the coming weeks. When Sonic Team announced that they had four new Dreamcast games […]
