    Wood man and Cut Man are random encounters. Guts Man is stolen by Wily and rebuild to be stronger.

    Not that I think about it do we really need all these Robot Masters in every arc? I mean they almost didnt show up for Worlds Collide, meaning they dont spend entire day working for Light.

    Just Imagine issues 5-8 "Time Keeps Slipping" where Mega would beat Time and Oil Men at the same time WITHOUT back-up of 6 Robots Masters that simply make it unfair fight. And imagine how much of an impact would make their dramatic rescue in issue 12, final of Mega Man 2 adapation, if readers werent already aware that these guys are definitely going to be reccuring.

    On unrelated mater I hope everybody know their games well, because beetwen Rock of Ages, Worlds Collide, and off-panels this comic is brutal on people who dont want any spoilers.

    I'm right with you on that one. Don't get me wrong, I like Guts Man and Cut Man enough, but they really are taking a lot of page time that the others could have.

    Actually they can be one of least interesting Robot Masters. One is dumb and strong and the other keep making puns. The same puns I might add.

    It was pretty good arc. Sure a little less monotonic and more epic, than adaptations of Mega man 1 or 2. I actually saw gameplay from original game and I have to say as adaptation story works great. It takes all good parts, changes what wouldnt fit, adds a little new. Darker tone is well handled, and story works great in continuity sense. Break Man is developed, new threat is set, and Wily

    prepares himself for Mega Man 3 which works since in both games Wily pretended to become good guy

    .

    I also like how all robots were helping people, especially Time Man. I miss him lately.

    If I had to complain that some of Robot Masters from MM 3 got more time that others and fight with Needle Man and Snake Man felt really unnecessery. Final fight could last longer Any one else feels that

    Devil series (Yellow, Ra, Chaos )

    never get spotlight they deserve in ths comic? Also I kinda assumed that Magnet Missile explodes. So seeing Bomb Man getting hit by small magnet in face just looks unintensionally sily, like oddly timed background gag. Finally I'm getting tired of Guts Man and Cut Man. Cant Fire Man or Time Man get more page time?

    C'mon Glider4, what so bad about stating that Sonic and Tails should stop being friends, Robotnik should be defeated by Knuckles by accident, Mina should marry Tails, and Espio the not-mammal should grow a beard?

    Why would ANYBODY have problem with that?

    That may be, but 30 years later could have retconned in a better motivation for Shadow doing so than 'Gah, people are idiots, so I must rule/punish them'

    To give him some credit, you try coming up with believable motivation that wont need many pages to be explained. And you cant use Black Doom.

    Here are two interesting informations on two types of future Mobius:

    1) King Shadow wasnt Flynn's idea. It was his editor's. he basically got orders: wrap up the story in two issues, put more action that Penders did and put in King Shadow. Flynn also gave himself order that Lara-Su must do something cool for a change. I'm not sure but I think the same editor ordered Penders to make story with Shadow and Metal in StH 146-149, explaining why its so generic - Penders never really plan on doing it, in fact thought that Bollers will write parts of it, before he quit.

    2) Ken Penders based Locke's death on his father's death. Cant say if whole character was that directly inspired, but that one scene definitely was. For that reason I avoid writing anything on that one subject.

    I suppose from technical point of view my complains are uncalled for. After all I never even noticed them. But remember that I could. If Penders had it his way, M25YL would be canon and Sally would be dead. It one of these two things happen my complains would be more that justified.

    I did my research.I knot that In Your Face was meant to be canon and that it was Penders who decided that Sally should die, if fact he spoiled it almost year before it happened. And I read him proudly stating that his plan was planned all along and that turning stories uncanon was bad and all that stuff.

    Yes, Sega, editors and time constrain limited him, that why I give a pass to some of his stories later. Hovewer he had time to plot Endgame, plenty of it. He thought that will be last story ever published. and yet is sucked anyway. And lack of any higher forced ordering him around only would make thing worse.

    So keep it in mind, if Penders decides he has to end his series after lets say 14 issues*, I doubt he will do it in dignified way.

    *I not saying 14 issues to be spiteful, on contrary. Remeber he wil make graphic novels.

    So Ken Penders always planned for Mobius 25 years later to be one and true future for the comic. Lets ignore for a second problems like killing tension, making Tails and Mina couple, stating and Knuckles will defeat Eggman and other massive problems with that.

    This was project that was Ken planned for very beggining, first time seen in Sonic In Your Face special and Sonic 22. Great planning and great world building, right?

    ...

    ...

    Then why mr Penders, tell why did you planned to kill Sally in Endgame when it was clearly stated that Nicole was meant to die in final fight with Robotnik? In fact Nicole was never even mentioned during entire story, Didnt she get damaged when Sally fall to her death? Did anyone took her out of her jacket? What was her reaction?...Nah, no one cares, we needed pointless Downunda plotpoint more, am I right?

    Its finally here. Warning, small spoilers for Sonic 256.

    Oddly enough I got to say that off-panel is my favourite part. Aleah Baker makes really great jokes, and artwork worked perfectly . Rouge never looked more adorable.

    Your happy Penders owns those characters?!

    With emphasis on those? Sure, why not. These guys are some of the worst comic has to offer. They random, pointless, and unfitting. Honestly I will more miss Monk and Hunter that these guys.

    Dont be silly, Archie characters cant get a story. That wouldnt sell cause no one would know its a Sonic story.

    In another words every issue needs Sega charaters on a cover. Only Scourge got away with that because he literally green Sonic.
