You joke, but I just realized, that's probably his loophole because Sega would never want to acknowledge that Sonic's name is Ogilvie. I don't know about the legality of this, but he could probably straight up show King Sonic but call him Ogilvie and call it a day. It wouldn't be any different than the millions of [X] the Hedgehog's out there. If they went after Penders, they'd have to go after all them.

Nah, it's more S'noc the Hedgehog. Friends call him Snoc the Hog.

Also not even mentioning that rumor going around that IDW is on the brink of collapse, they would need to continue to do a sort of digital release to continue to operate. Cutting out both is a death sentence.

So since the Tweet is down now, IDW released a statement saying that May releases are being suspended and that their biggest projects will be compiled into a bigger (graphic novel?) release in July to make it easier on distributors. I'm assuming this is what David Mariotte meant by a surprise for July. Edit: they took down the tweet and re did it. Why do people do this: https://www.idwpublishing.com/a-letter-to-our-comic-industry-partners-from-chris-ryall-idws-president-publisher-and-chief-creative-officer/

Can anyone explain why every issue seems to have a different artist? Like in this two parter, Lawrence and ABT have two very different styles. Its going to be very jarring to go from Lawrence's cartoonish style to ABTs manga style next issue.

I don't know why theyd rewrite adventure, all the lines seem solid enough.

I'd like to note that it says October 2019. Meaning that it's very recent that he recently worked with Sega. Which should more than likely show that the new Sonic game's script is complete. Could it mean a 2020 release like people are speculating?

Next thing Ken is going to do is go and attempt to be the editor in chief of Marvel and DC because "Sonic introduced kids to their characters" so "he has the right". I watched Iron Man in 2008 at 8 years old before I knew what a Sonic was.

The fact that he seems to think that the international market will care about some stories from 15 years ago while IDW is currently publishing their trades internationally is laughable. He's trying to take on IDW 1 on 1.

Going to need a source in that because as I recall, the last mention of the cartoon in any capacity was in December when they expressed their desire to make a new one.

Well if that one leak is to be believed this could be the announcement of the new cartoon in the works.

Not exactly a "line" but wasn't there supposed to be a PSA about cellphones with Sonic in the vein of Sonic Sez? I wish we coulda had that.

If it's the same one I'm thinking of, some guy on 4chan posted storyboards of a new hand drawn Sonic cartoon. Don't remember it all but it supposedly is going to be 10 episodes and the first one revolves around Eggman releasing little drill bots into a city. Tyson is involved. But then again it could be another show that's going on and I'm totally wrong.

Wait wait wait wait. Tom Hanks was supposed to play Sonic at one point?
