Mmm…SatBK…chock full of SonBlaze goodness. And SonAmy now that I think about it…
Is Sega finally letting Sonic get his playa on?

Sunday Update:
Lots going on IRL, so we’ve been behind on the comic. We’ll have an update on Monday for you all!

Just some filler to tie you over while we get our sprites finished.
This strip is based mostly on true events. The day I got Sonic and the Black Knight, I played it non-stop until I beat it. However, the game had so much non-stop waggle going on that I ended up barely able to move my arm for the next two or three days after.
Those warnings to take periodic breaks in games like Wii Sports? Maybe there was something to them after all…

So…yeah…we weren’t starting a new arc or anything…
I thought for sure everyone would be saying stuff like how we’ve gone too far or something. Then again, I thought that would happen during the marriage story. Sorry for…getting your hopes up, I guess.
Kamal
You’re sorry? Are you kidding? If anything, this just shows how much Power Rings has broken our readership. If anything, we push farther after this! Thank you all you lovable weirdos!

Saturday Update:
We’re taking a bit of a break, what with the holiday and the necessity to spend it with family. We’ll return after the holiday with new strips! Happy Easter everyone!
Friday Update:
We’re just waiting on new sprites now. Sorry for the wait!

Hi, Hi!
After the last arc, I told the guys we HAD to do this next. ‘Cause that’s what happens when you get married, right? That and I always like the offspring art I see on the internet, so don’t be so sure Sonia’s going to pop out first. This is gonna be so fun! Squee!

Ha ha…drug culture…
Sonic Universe #2. Ho-lee-crap, was this the best story I’ve seen from Ian since he started his reign.
Quick summation. Shadow contracts some backup from Sonic. Seems a [Dr. Evil quotes]Giant Laser[/Dr. Evil quotes] is poised to obliterate the FFs’ temp camp within Eggman’s borders and half the surrounding city. Yeah, Doc R’s sanity is falling to Fleetway levels over here. So Shads, Blue, and Rouge do some old-timey espionage. Folded into the action are some quick flashbacks to major Dark Story plot points from SA2.
And that’s it. That’s the whole plot. Very few punches are thrown. The usual reams of exposition are nowhere to be found. The dialogue felt totally natural. If not for the Faker and the Bat, I’d almost thought I stumbled into an episode of SatAM.
Ian, for the love of Aurora and all things sacred, keep writing like this! I beseech thee!

Look closely at Lara if you don’t get the joke at first. ^_^

…Not to Throw Her Overboard.
I both love and loathe putting Marine in the comic. Love because she’s such a drain on the other charas’ sanity. Loathe because half the time I don’t know if I’m using the slang right even though it’ll sound weirder if I don’t use any.
Does Australia even have any raccoons?
On another note, it’s a bit of a shame it took almost ten years for Archie to be able to introduce a second title again. But at least it looks like Sonic Universe is getting off on right foot. Four issue arcs? The return of Off-Panel? It’s like 1999 all over again…
Kamal
Three updates in a row? Do we do that anymore?
The idea for this comic has been sitting in the back of my mind ever since I saw this strip from Andy’s Another Sonic Comic on deviantArt. (Not our Andy.) It’s eerie how perfect the sprites matched up on the Sonic sheet we edit from. It’s like this strip was begging to be made.
And we’re back again.
