So Sonic Fighters?

[Speedy_25]

I had the same thought when I first saw the cover

[ILOVEVHS]

Honey and Breezie?!?

OH, SO THEEEEEY'RE FINE TO USE IN THE FUCKING COMIC.

[RedAuthar]

Honey and Breezie?!?

OH, SO THEEEEEY'RE FINE TO USE IN THE FUCKING COMIC.

Where's the problem with that? Honey the Cat is a SEGA character like Mighty and Ray. And Breezie was a AoStH character, which should be usuable since SatAM characters are.

I don't see any problem with using either of them.

I don't see any problem with using either of them.

Ian has stated that only four AoStH characters will be returning in the new continuity. Breezie has been confirmed, and Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts are obvious choices. That's four in total, so I guess there's nobody else returning.

From what I gathered, Sega is monitoring all the characters freatured in the comics, so Ian has to keep track all characters from other media that are available to use. Anything from Underground, the OVA, and X are off-limits; and certain elements are no longer usable: such as Robotnik's SatAM design and the name "Mobius". All the returning characters from SatAM have already appeared and/or were mentioned in the "Countdown to Chaos" arc, so I guess we won't be seeing the likes of Ari, Lazaar, or anyone else left out in the comic.

It just pisses me off since they can't use most other Sonic stuff.

And as pissed as I am, I'm fucking ecstatic that Honey is an official character in the comics now.

Honey will be a major wildcard though

[MikeMurdock]

I want to see lupe

[LogiTeeka]

I want to see lupe

And you will, eventually.

She's been confirmed to still exist in this new continuity, so it's only a matter of time.

[GamemasterAnthony]

Question is:  Is Breezie an AA like she was in AoStH?  Also...  *insert reference to Breezies from MLP:FiM*

 

Now let's see if they get Tiara in the comic as well so...  *Sonic whispers in his ear*  No, Sonic...I don't think Sally's new look counts despite looking somewhat close.

[LogiTeeka]

Question is:  Is Breezie an AA like she was in AoStH?

I kinda doubt it. According to Dubs on the Bumbleking forums, the supposed "evidence" to her being a robot on the cover was an artistic error. From the way he said it, it sounds like she'll likely be organic.

Or maybe he's just pulling our legs. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
