bro, i agree with everything you say, and i agree and glad you pointed that up there for anther argument on why we should see them back. that and would it hurt for the former writers to oh i don't know? say "lesson archie, i don't like this or that" instead of just hitting them with a lawsuit. anther reason why i hate the post wave is because of lack of shipping. guys look, hate me all you want, dylan i know you like this this way but i don't. we already deal enough of that in the games and i hate how ian can't establish any relationships or try to. tails could be with fiona fox or nicole in a touching love story angle, and sally and sonic could get back together, but instead no, we can't have that happen, we probably can't even have stories that take place in the future. I hate and hope this changes, so what if the sega ship fans are out of control? ignore them, you already have fans leaving the comics simply because of the reboot, and i'm sure that sega doesn't give to (bleeps) about how fans feel about sonic boom, other wise why the hell are we getting a squeal to it? as blue comet said, i know it's time to move on but we can't, some of us really can't. this universe came out of no where all because of a crossover with mega man, and i blame archie because of this situation and how things are running. we could still be having panders and other writers characters, hell, panders even ALLOWS it and doesn't mind, but instead they have to do this out of worry. i get that to some degree but if they really knew there writers they would continue and just make up some excuse for why panders characters are gone, it really ticks me off, and it's why i hate archie and just want to beg sega to take the rights away sometimes. Poor flynn is stressing his heart out cause old archie with there stupid blond haired mascot who can go (bleep) himself had to mess up and give the piper panders his money, and you all wonder why i don't hate him, cause archie had as much as a say in the distruction of there own comics, and could dispute the copyright claims on panders instead of just suing him! panders said it himself on his forms! archie, i hope you're happy with yourselves.
