Excellent issue.
Well worth the wait.
It was nice to see a fair bit of character development with regards to Death Trap, and I look forward to them appearing in the future.
Also what curse does Kalus have on Prank?
The Chaotix story was also excellent, and its interesting to see a follow up on the shadow story from 262, and I'm interested in seeing which side shadow decides to take.
The delay in finding out how Amy is going to get out of the situation, she found herself in, in 263, certainly has me intrigued!
And the Amy strip itself was very enjoyable, and their was a good mixture of humour and action throughout the entire comic.
It was great to see Blaze return as well, and I look forward to seeing what future plans for her are.
An excellent issue and I am looking forward to Silver's return in the summer, and seeing how he plans to prevent super sonic from killing Tails.

4 Strips! Nice!
Sonic's story is pretty neat, nice to have another page to advance the story. The exchanges between Sonic and Robotnik were good too - particularly the "Change of Pace" part XP. Art in this was maybe a little bit on the undetailed side but good nontheless, you all do a great job.
Chaotix story was brilliant - some really nice art, great story, Mr Blobnik (omg) and some humorous writing. Love it.
Blaze's - Intriguing, it'll be cool to find out more.
Nice to see Fabian Vane back too - The bride of the family reminds me of a certain celebrity of the Kardashian nature.
Well done guys!

A good issue I must say! The art was quite nice overall. The Sonic strip colours were bright and beautiful, Shadow and the Chaotix looked great, Blaze had great expressions, and Amy looked bloody adorable. The stories were great too, all of them added a little something to the overall plot which I was very happy about. Each of the stories felt like they contributed something to what's going on and that's something I think everyone will be happy about. Again, great issue in all, and I'm totally hyped about the meeting between Sonic and Silver!  |

I really enjoyed this one, my favourite full issue in a good while now. I love the cover, it's really well drawn and beautifully coloured. I'm pleased to see Death Trap being expanded upon and showing character development, particularly the sort of stuff Nigel K actually planned to use about 15 years ago. I'm not entirely sure about how Prank's used here, admittedly, he does come off as a bit of a mardy child at times, but Kalus manages to elevate the mystery of what exactly it is that keeps him in charge and Prank subservient. Looking forward to more Death Trap, particularly finding out who their "employer" may be and, more over, how he uncursed them...  Really like the art in the Chaotix story, as for Shadow himself, it could go either way. Get those opinions in, Boomers! As for the Blaze strip, Mambo's colours really brought Panda's lovely clean lineart to life- great artistic pairing. Blaze's story itself is unfolding very slowly, that leads me to think things are being timed to have her come in at a really critical moment in the plot to do something important... but what could it be?  Lastly, Bride of Fabian Vane, what a treat this is, KKM's art is superb and fun to look at and unique among the STC team. Chigs delivered a great script for this one with a fabulous punchline at the end. And kudos for having Sally be the reporter (not to mention everyone's favourite flying walrus Joe Sushi working the camera)! Some more excellent wallpapers and, of course, the Flashback Zone is again a brilliant read and whoever wrote it should be given an enormous pay rise  Good strong stuff that builds anticipation for future storylines while still strengthening current plots and developing characters. Keep it uuuuuup! |

At least Seven. Well I'll feel sorry for a Brazilian member if he/she reads the Sonic strip, they'll be reminded of the 7-1 thrashing that Germany gave them on Tuesday night this week. Sorry, that number, and dat World Cup.

Just a heads-up regarding Chaotix strip; the brand name substitute for Youtube.com on page 4? You might wanna check against the first Google result for that.

I think it's all right, it's a thing from STC anyway. Also, I can't seem to find anything bad associated with it? zoomtube.com, aye?
(Also I will say I keep reading "@shadowfandan" as "@ shadow fandan", which is a rude word in Scotland... XD)

 ha ha oh wow Anyways, The delay in finding out how Amy is going to get out of the situation, she found herself in, in 263, certainly has me intrigued! And the Amy strip itself was very enjoyable, and their was a good mixture of humour and action throughout the entire comic. Thank you, even if I'm afraid there was a bit TOO MUCH action  Nice to see Fabian Vane back too - The bride of the family reminds me of a certain celebrity of the Kardashian nature. Never thought I'd read those words Amy looked bloody adorable. Thank you very much Lastly, Bride of Fabian Vane, what a treat this is, KKM's art is superb and fun to look at and unique among the STC team. Chigs delivered a great script for this one with a fabulous punchline at the end. And kudos for having Sally be the reporter (not to mention everyone's favourite flying walrus Joe Sushi working the camera)! If there's anything from all this nonsense I'd like to see stick, its Joe Sushi as Sally's cameraman! Anyways, thanks for the kind words, guys |

Joe Sushi is clearly Sally's private plane.

And so Ichneumon is revealed to be a teenage girl... satire on Shadow-obsessed adolescents, I presume? It was good to see villains who aren't "muhaha I'm evil" for a change with the Death Trap story and who actually have some redeemable qualities. Hilarious ending, too! Naturally also happy to see that not everyone on Mobius has bought Kane's stories and some still think of Sonic as a hero. It goes without saying I'm interested in where the Order story is headed. Blaze is at least a reasonable sort, though, so I'm really curious what sort of cell they've locked Ebony in given she's kind of coocoo. |

I recognize Ichunemon from that old Sonic book with the Robotnik computer network.
Also, since Blaze is said to be "too powerful to exist", could this mean...
She's really a Lovecraftian horror?

wow 4 strips. Nice.
Good to see Fabian at it again. XD beeing THAT bad, he sure made himself quite a long career with all his scandals and tricks to surf the wave! Nike to see Amy in the slipping out of the gown clichè (*cough* Angelina Jolie- Maleficent style *cough*)
a bit confused about Blaze's story. I'm not really sure of what's going on :/ I guess I'll have to go check backissues. Nice wallpapers

I enjoyed this issue, my only complaint is that I found the art in Amy's story a little... confusing? I couldn't really fathom out what was going on.

Personal taste and all that and I'm not trying to say Super is wrong (his opinion is his own and is perfectly valid) but I think the art being hectic helped the story, it had a lot of panic in it and I feel the art did a good job of getting that across.

No, he's right in that Page 4's first half is pretty much a bunch of random noise. I like the idea I had with it and know it's feasible, I just need to learn to do it better.

Howdy all, great to hear the new issue seems to have gone down well and was worth the wait, naturally I'm also pleased that Bride of Fabian has been well recieved! it started as a bit of a crazy idea a couple of years back and for a time I thought it was just going to sit around gathering dust, but KKM breezed in and breathed life into it like I could never have imagined and I'm so pleased to see it complete at long last! The Kardashian thing I'd never even thought of, but I can certainly see what you mean I think I mentioned Sally in the script but Mr Sushi is all KKM's doing - we really must get some big panels up for you all to appreciate how stuffed those crowd scenes are with cameos - who can you spot in the backgrounds? In terms of confusing art, it maybe got a little bit away from our artist in places, but as LT pointed out, I did script a fair amount of manicness into my panel descriptions so, I think we can share joint responsibility there - lettering page 4 was certainly an interesting challenge let me tell you! ;P |
