Hey guys. Guess what? ...We finally have a cutscene! However, it's in Japanese, so you'll have to stick with rough translations for now. Anyway, enjoy the onslaught: [media=] Here's the rough translation of the cutscene's dialogue: Zavok: Fire! Zavok: Kill the fat man! Show him what we’re really capable of! Cubot: These guys mean business! Sonic: These guys are tougher than I thought… Gonna need to think of a strategy to take them out before they do some serious damage. Tails: I know you can do it, Sonic… Eggman: Retreat! We have to retreat! Let’s get out of here before they get us!

Well, if Sonic Team were using a similar theory to the one I posted earlier, then it could mean the Lost Hex Wisps might actually originate from there. But it's unlikely.

I'll be honest... this trailer didn't really get me that excited. Yeah, it shows off some new areas that we hadn't seen before, such as the open-world and vertical segments in Desert Ruins as well as Silent Forest (which admittedly does look pretty cool), but... I dunno. Maybe it's just because I didn't enjoy the demo that much at SoS... However, the levels are starting to intrigue me story-wise. I mean, we have an obvious Green Hill rip-off (totem poles and all), Desert Ruins looks like a merging of Sandopolis and Pyramid Cave (...and Sweet Mountain, I guess?), Silent Forest reminds me of Mushroom Hill, Green/Frog Forest and White/Lost Jungle, and Frozen Factory... well, the Casino level speaks for itself. But it gets me thinking: Could the Lost Hex in-actuality be a side-effect of Eggman's tampering with time and space? I could personally see it working, since Generations did reference the events of Colours. But that's just me.
-
That would be cool. Of course, it would be even more awesome if we also got to actually play as Metal Sonic, but I digress.
-
To me, it sounds like all characters without gloves will wear gloves (as shown with Sally and Nicole), non-human Male characters will probably become shirtless (as shown with Antoine, not sure if it'll affect Scourge), things like that. I'm okay with it, as long as the characters' personalities aren't radically changed.
-
What I got from the interview was that: 1) As I expected, the 'new universe' won't be a complete reboot of the comic series. 2) Most, if not all characters are getting redesigns to look like the Sonic game characters. 3) It sounds like the comic-exclusive characters will be 're-introduced', but I could be wrong about that. 4) The story arcs will be shorter, so that they don't get dragged on as long as the 'Mecha Sally' arc did/does.

(Why didn't I notice this page before? Oh well...) Hi, I'm NegaMetallix, but you can call me Nega for short. I originally came here to read the Archie comics, as they don't sell them here in the UK from my knowledge. I got introduced to them when I went to my first 'Summer of Sonic' convention last year, and I've loved them ever since. Same goes for Mega Man, which actually got me interested in the games (which I also enjoy). Some of my favourite characters from both series include: Shadow, Metal Sonic, Silver, Knuckles, Blaze, Shard (the original Metal Sonic), Proto Man, Bass, Elec Man, Fire Man, Time Man, Quick Man, Shadow Man... ...and of course the blue heroes themselves, Sonic and Mega Man. (Oh, and Eggman Nega, whenever he appears, which he hasn't... yet.) As for hobbies, nothing really except playing and reviewing video games (& films). Maybe I'll start making reviews on YouTube, but not right now. Anyway, if there's ever something you need on this website (updates, interviews etc.) I'll be happy to help in anyway I can. Catch ya later, guys!

Hey guys, there was a recent interview with Ian Flynn which gives us a bit more insight as to the reason behind the redesigns, among other things: http://www.sonicstadium.org/2013/07/an-interview-with-ian-flynn/
-
Hmm... I dunno. While it would be interesting to see Break Man's reaction to the crossover events (even though I don't remember him getting caught in Shadow's Chaos Control), I personally don't think the stories would be as entertaining if Mega Man knew exactly how to beat Dr. Wily every single time. Besides, didn't 'Rock of Ages' already give Mega Man hints of upcoming events? Then again, we won't know until 'Blackout' begins next month. And hey, at least it looks like Break Man might revert back to the good side earlier than the Mega Man 3 adaptation...
-
I've been thinking... remember a while back when Ian Flynn said that he couldn't use Eggman Nega in the comics (at least, not by full appearence and name) because of issues with SEGA? Well, seeing him in the Complete Encyclopedia (as you can tell with my icon), could than mean Ian can use him now? And if so, would he more dangerous than Eggman himself?
-
Since this topic isn't getting much love, I thought I'd just post a little brainstorm I just had: Thanks to STH#250's teaser for events Post-WC, along with the previews of Countdown To Chaos, we now know that Sonic's world will essentially 'die' (semi-reboot), while Mega Man's world will essentially 'live' (continue as normal). But what if there are some minor changes, equivalent to the changes that Sonic's world had from the original Genesis Wave? Maybe it could be a good excuse to allow Bass to be properly introduced earlier than we expect him to (e.g. he might be created sometime just after Mega Man 3's adaptation, in an original comic arc, rather than being created just before MM7's adaptation). It's unlikely to happen, but what do you guys think? (Assuming this topic is still worth talking about...)
-
Well, yes. The "base villain" line was clearly there as a 'subtle' hint of Bass' involvement in the crossover, but I still don't see it making sense in-continuity... then again, maybe Ian didn't want people like me to analyse it so much, and just see it as what it is; an obvious foreshadowing to Metal Sonic's partner in Worlds Collide. Also, seeing as Bass is a fan-favourite, I doubt that Flynn will wait all the way until the Mega Man 7 adaptation to introduce Bass into the Mega Man comic continuity. At least, I don't think (most of) the fans could wait that long.
-
I think his loss of voice and free will was most likely a side-effect of the Genesis Wave, causing Metal 3.8 to basically become the equivalent to Metal Sonic from the games. Also, who do you think Eggman was referring to when he told Metal to meet his 'new partner' in SU#50? I mean, Wily hadn't created Bass at that point, so was he probably just referring to Wily himself (or perhaps Copybot)? I know it's a bit too late for this question, but it still bugs me to this day.
-
You know what, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case. And yeah, Flynn has a good track-record with his characters. Also, I really hope that Shard returns.
-
Oh, ok.
-
Oh, ok.
-
I think that if Sonic #252 was the true final part of Worlds Collide, then it could definately be a possibility. Nice theory, though. Wait, do you get Part 12 on Saturday? (I'm not subscribed, so I don't know.)
-
In other news, Ian Flynn has given some hints via Bumbleking as to who the 'unlikely character with Uncle Chuck' is, as well as the mysterious glove: Oh, really? Well, we'll see about that, Ian! Any thoughts, guys?
-
I tried, but due to the different sizes of the images, as well as a gap between the covers, I'm unable to. Sorry :(
-
That... is a possibility. I'm starting to get the feeling that each new cover of 'Countdown To Chaos' will reveal a new FF design, but who knows?
-
So, I think we have enough evidence to say that the Sonic comics are getting a semi-reboot. I tell ya, the amount of people I've seen having tantrums at the new character designs is insane. Not here, mind you, as the people on these forums seem to be pretty cool-minded.

Well, it's their creation after all.. No matter what we say, it won't make them change magically... And beside, the others difference is that they are japanese. Wheras Occidental Seller will be willing to compromise in order to make money.. the orientals... are less open most of the times ; don't say i'm racist, sega proved it more than once that they are even more stubborn than a bull....

I've just noticed something else: Just like the shoe in STH#253's cover, there's a mysterious hand on the bottom right corner of #254's cover. It's obscured by the logo, so it's difficult to make out, but... could this be the mysterious character that they mention in the synopsis?
-
While I'm here, I may as well show you guys the upcoming Sonic Super Special as well as the Countdown To Chaos Part 2 synopsis and covers: I think it's safe to assume that the second Genesis Wave has caused the Sonic comics we know to be semi-rebooted. What do you guys think?
-
Yeah, that's were I got the synopsis, but there weren't any images on the page. Doesn't matter now, I've got the covers right here:
-
Well, we've got a new synopsis for Pirate Plunder Panic: Part 3 (SU#57) (I'll post the cover art if and when I can, since I can't reach Bumbleking.com for some reason...) So, what are your thoughts, if any?
