"They just have different tastes Sarah," said Skye. "And lots of different types of tea," ----------------- Miles looked on with a bit of concern as he held out the beaker. ---------------- "Huh? Old man?" asked Ziona. "But don't worry, Miles thinks he can fix it!"

*whispers to Fluffy* That's it. Just play along.

"Great. You've still got the map. Where next?"

And 250

"Grab a camera and do more sightseeing?" asked Melody

"Now we just need a LOT of popcorn!" Melody grinned

"I know, sorry. We can get the usual stuff soon," said Skye. ---------------- "Okay Dominic. I just hope you'll be okay," said Miles

Upper? 248

"Wow, that's a lot of films. Got a few nights watching in there!" said Melody.

"Cool. Any sign of a big boxset?" asked Melody

Melody followed.

"No problem," replied Skye, sitting cross-legged on the ground and drinking some of his own. ------------------ "Don't forget the token," said Miles, tapping the clay circle. "That, if anything, is more important." ----------------- "Right, do they have an action film area?"

"Heh, I think she might be able to pull it off!" grinned Melody

So… where were we? Ah yes. Mini-Series: Sonic the Hedgehog – Issue 2 Unlike the previous Issues, this one has a single ongoing storyline, though split into four distinct parts. Though, it does give the overall story more room to expand than the previous ones did. So, the Crown of the Acorns has been stolen, and so the Chaos…. Erm… ‘Freedom’ Emeralds from the crown have to be recovered. Admittedly, the Freedom Emerald’s could indeed be Chaos Emerald given that 1) Chaos Emeralds are numerous and all green at this stage in the comic and 2) It could be that the four emeralds for the crown were simply given a title of ‘Freedom Emeralds.’ That doesn’t explain however how come the crown itself is stolen, yet somehow winds up in Rotor’s hands at the end! Aside from the continuity gaff, the four stories are fun, and it even has some time to do a bit of character stuff, with Sonic and Antoine (under orders) putting aside their differences briefly, which probably marks the start of their relationship going from dislike to ‘grudging respect’. Sure, there are still plenty of silly elements to the story, such as Robotnik having a trapdoor set up in the middle of nowhere, but there is a lot less winking at the camera, so to speak. (Epilogue notwithstanding) The biggest let-down of this story is that, once this story is over, the crown (or at least THIS particular version of the crown) is never mentioned again, despite the impact all the characters are certain it will have. But that’s more a case of nothing being used after the fact, rather than a fault of the story itself. Overall. Issue 2 of the mini-series is a fairly solid, if light-hearted and silly story. Certainly one of the stronger stories to begin with. If you like watching AoStH, then you’ll like this story, and it won’t be bad to revisit. If not, well, as with most of the early comics it’s a case of read once just to have it under your belt.

We'll need to hire a PR team then!" laughed Melody. ---------------- Anna waited in the lab for now.

"We do have the skills," grinned Melody. "The dream went well!" ---------------- "Okay Zamy," said Anna.

"So should we look to do some supervillainy of our own?" laughed Melody. ---------------- That sounds like a good plan," said Anna.

"Here you go," said Skye with a smile as he handed it over to Sarah then took his own. --------------- Melody followed. 'Oooh, I wanna buy the whole shop!' --------------- "Good luck," said Miles again. "Yeah, but I'll help you with them," promised Anna.

"Good," said Skye, handing a cup over. "Sarah?" ----------- Melody followed, looking around interested. ------------ "I know you will!" said Miles. "You ready?" "Sorry Zamy," said Anna.

'Yeah! Now let's find the other films!' ---------------- "Agreed... This place is gonna be like a day care centre," said Anna.
