Yeah, I've just noticed that I used the wrong article(it should be "an" not "a"). XD

Ideally, I would prefer the Chaotix to be mute though I greatly prefered Vector's old voice to his ear-grating new one.

I kinda like the idea of a spin-off staring just Espio (Vector and Charmy never did much for me). I think a platform/ninja stealth game could be interesting. But it all depends on how well it's done.

Well, Omega is a fairly complex character to draw. It's nice art whether it's traced of not.

Actually, the reverse would be true. Uekawa is foremost a 2D artist, therefore he'd draw up a character in his own style before having it rendered.

I'm STILL waiting for them to put up Metal Sonic, original art or not.

Also, am I the only one who finds it odd that OMEGA'S picture saved as "chara_big.gif"?

Same here, if he looks like he did 10 years ago with the short spikes and circular body then they dont have perception of vision.

In Sonic Adventure 1 on the entrance of Final Egg in one of the tubes you can see Metal Sonic as hes supposed to look now a days.

as you can see here.

So, one of the Sonic Channel updates was a section on Sonic in the USA, about the Archie Comic. Bordom struck and I attempted to clean up a machine translation to make it more readable:
With Sonic's 15th Anniversary recently, many of the Sonic comics in America featured the message, "Happy Birthday Sonic" on their covers. I will tell you about the American Sonic Comics.

In Japan, comics are published weekly and monthly. Recently, Japanese comics have been published in America with greater frequency. Though Japanese comics are being translated to America very quickly, there are still many titles in Japan.

A company named "TOKYOPOP", which I have delt with in the past over the American release of the Sonic Adventure 2 soundtrack, releases many Japanese comics and cartoons to America. They are one of the first companies to treat the American comic book market as if were the Japanese comic book market.

In America, most comic books usually come in one of two formats: "Paper back" (easy, informal binding), and "Hard cover" (tidy binding). The comic in the United States has been paper back for a long time. Though it is large, the width of the pages is thin, and their numbers are much fewer. Is this because they use a lot of colors?

Why are all the sentences written in capital letters? I do not understand this.

Much like Japanese comics, each month, a new issue is published, revealing a little more of the storyline. There are also advertisements throughout, making it feel less like a book and more like a magazine.

It has been going on for quite a long time, now. There are two series: "Sonic the Hedgehog" and "Sonic X". They are licensed by Archie Comics through Sega.

The Archie Comic's setting is quite interesting for various reasons, especially that of "Sonic the Hedgehog". Though it uses the games as it's basis, new developments are included, including many new characters. It is quite novel.

The series has already exceeded issue 160. Certainly, you can feel the history behind it. For a while, the comic book was in gorgeous form. There is "Trade Paper Back", too.

It is usually found in the the section of bookstores with the magazines, generally because it is given the same treatment as a magazine. However, at bookstores, often times you will not find the issue you want to read, so embarassingly, you must go to Mr. Comic Book Shop.

Comic book shops are specialty stores for comic book maniacs. There are a lot of super hero books for so-called American Comics like Batman and Spider-man, which I do not like.

Because there was business in America, we brought back many issues of Sonic comics to Japan. For something so thin, it sure was heavy to carry!

"Sonic the Hedgehog", which is not obtainable in Japan, is quite enjoyable. If you would like to win copies of the American Sonic Comic for you to own, please apply here.
Part of me wants to see the Fandomageddon that would occur if ArchieSonic characters started appearing in the Sonic games, if they really like the comics as much as they imply.

Ouch. It would seem Senoue is too cool for us comic book nerds.

I think he's saying that Storm is basically Big drawn with three ears which are then changed to feathers. But what do I know?

I think he meant "working" in the sense that it's inching him closer to 3000, not in that it's inching toward yours.
