It's looks like it will end around 248 (perhaps)

Good. I want Sally back to normal

[ILOVEVHS]

I wish they could've waited to do this til after 250.

[LogiTeeka]

Well, I'm excited. This will probably be the best (and only good) crossover Sonic has ever had.

[LaserX5]

I so love how the preview text of the 247. Finally rescue Mecha Sally?

You mean there's no more pathetic cat and mouse games with Team SegaSonic... err, I mean Team Fighters where she flies around and taunts them, but doesn't do anything to try and kill them? No more obvious stalling of Mecha Sally escaping their grasps to fight another day just to pad this story along longer for the sake of reaching a certain number?



But, in all seriousness, I will admit the cover is pretty cool looking.

Now if the story would actually match the art for a change...

[Uncle Ben]

If only

[LaserX5]

I'll never understand why there's a story about a robotic/weaponized super robotic solider fighting Sonic and his friends if they weren't going to be a lethal force to reckoned with in the first place.

It was even more pathetic to watch than how those incompetent morons who watered down the Terminator cyborgs in the 3rd and 4th movies by making them toss around their opponents like rag dolls instead of actually trying to rip them in 2.

I know this is a kid's comic and all, but seriously, if they're going to hype up Mecha Sally as some fierce battle droid, THEN SHOW IT!

At least then it would be worth our time seeing Sally as a roboticized slave for now.

Obviously you've not been doing your research because:

A. The Sonic/MegaMan crossover starts in #248.
B. It states the Sonic/Megaman crossover starts in the next issue on the cover.
and C. The crossover is probably not cannon with the rest of the book.

And judging by the text preview, this is part 1. So with #248 being the crossover, we've gotta wait till #252 for the second part. It's most likely that #247 will end on a cliffhanger with something "terrible" happening to cause an uproar in the fandom. The fandom has to wait 4 months with the crossover in effect to see what happens next, annnnnnd when #252 comes around, the cliffhanger of #247 is quickly dealt with to move on with the story. If this happens, then Flynn is repeating the whole GENESIS arc again, except this time the payoff will nowhere be as shocking or impressive because we've already known for a good few months already that Sally will be back to normal, no matter what happens, we know she'll be fine.

If he does choose to go that route then it's understandable because of how "well" it worked before, and I say "well" as in it got a shit ton of people talking about the comic, not in actual terms of how well it was executed. And if he does go that way, well then it's pretty damn lazy. I guess it's like a successfull movie franchise with a simple premise to it, just keep repeating the same old shit over and over again because it works. James Bond has been getting away with it for 50 years.

if you read more Prime, Mega Man # 24 begins the crossover, not STH #248, just checked the photo gallery at TSSZ, (http://www.tssznews....10/IMG_0880.jpg), your right. But if that's the case, should have been done afterwards, not 1 part before and the second part months after.

Yeah, I know Mega Man #24 starts the crossover, but in the main Sonic title it starts it part in #248 and in Universe in #51. I didn't mean the crossover flat out starts in #248, I meant it'll begin to carry on in #248.

Like I said, it's probably to get fans buzzing with a four month wait. Dunno how that'll work though because a lot of fans are jizzing in their pants about the crossover. That'll be the major talk for those four months.

How much you're going to bet that Ian is going to quit after frequent SEGA and Archie mandates, restrictions, the court case with Ken Penders, and negative fan reactions. I'm not saying it's likely, but with all this going around you would think he would quit by now. Unless, he has a strong will.

Do that and get a somewhat decent writer to do the comics

I seriously doubt Ian is going to quit. This is his "dream job" after all.

Personally, I think he's enjoying all the attention and reactions he's gotten from the fanbase due to his latest story, whether it be positive or negative.

Well, getting a new writer is a double-edge sword because you have no idea what he or she is going to do with the comic.

Hmm, never thought that before. Then again there are some signs like Ian's response to the fans and such.

well he has been a bit outspoken at times about the mandates. Heck, if they allow him to, he would a "CM PUNK" and drop a pipe bomb on he truly feels about the mandates and such.

As I don't like Ian, I would admit like to hear him give a non PC styled comment about how he really feels about these mandates.

I think if we saw the entire list ourselves, we'd be shocked and outraged.

I've got a strong feeling there are some pretty asinine demands Sega makes on the comic.
