Yikes. Mecha Sally new look is really scary. And another Metal Sonic? How long will Eggman keep building these things?
this issue is really cheesy. I’ve gotta say.
@Vincent Giannell
Until Ian can think of a better idea. His overuse of them lately feels rather lazy, Metal is the type of villain whose appearance should be a “oh shit” moment having him in every other issue and offshoot undermines it.
234 issues into this series yet all of them are shocked and angry that Dr.Eggman weaponized Metal Sally.
@SSJSonicXX14 About them being surprised by Mecha Sally: Imagine this, you’re in a war, one of your best friends almost dies, but gets better, then, after some years, he dies. Wouldn’t you be shocked?
I know, Death isn’t the best example, but is the only that I could find
Oh shit, Sonic gettin’ NTR’d by Sally-..er..Mecha Sally, now with Metal Sonic.
…I’ve been on the internet far too long.
Ahh, this issue, lol. Fans who got this issue early all had their “knickers in a twist” so to speak. Good issue overall, and it made me feel for a particular character.
I got the issue last week.I’m Not going go for a spoiler ,but the ending of this issue is pretty sad.
good thinking (awesomedudefan) also i just got the comic today its awesome man there is alot of exitetment also alot of questions in comic.
This issue made me cry.
Mecha Sally doesn’t impress me or strike me as a character to be feared let alone given all the token focus as the worst thing the doctor could do, still the issue is good and helps build up the new darker tones for the comics.
