I think they added more female heroes because there are already many male heroes (Sonic-Knuckles-Tails-Shadow-Silver-Chaotix-Omega...) and not many female heroes (Amy-Cream--Blaze-Rouge)

Agreed.

 

Hopefully some new male heroes soon. How often do they add new heroes?

When they see fit. They don't have really a schedule for new characters, but it's pretty sure that it won't happen before the end of Battle for Angel Island (that begin this month), so in 4 month minimum.

True, they introduced new characters in the first 8 issue. But for the Battle for Angel Island arc (issue 9 till issue 12) I don't think they'll introduce new ones.

4 months? Oh ok thanks.

 

Do we have any idea who they might be?

When they make a new character, they show art of this character before the issue he appears in comes out (like a month before the issue releases).

Thank you so very much. You guys are beyond nice.

Could you please tell me about the new characters? Any green characters? Haha my favourite colour is green.

 

Mine too!

Who is Cream?

Who is this cream character? He/she sounds intriguing.

D'oh! 

You must be new to this franchise.

 

39 minutes ago, Alexios31 said:

Thank you both. So 3 new heroes are all female? I was kind of hoping for a new male hero.

 

 

Nah, just those two thus far.

Not very at all. 

And honestly, Tangle seems to just be there for the sake of having a character with a name(you'll get that when you actually get up) and for IDW to show off for publicity's sake to hype up the comic's four issue debut.

@Alexios31Or in Tangle's case, 3 months.

Thanks guys, you have been so welcoming and kind. I hope we get a green/teal male character one day.

Depending on the current comic being written/conceptualize, maybe you will. :wink:

IDW said they won't be introducing any new characters in year 2 (issues 13-24), so I wouldn't expect anyone until 2020 at least. Even then, its more likely to be game characters who haven't been introduced to the comics yet (ie, Big). They've got plenty to work with already- Whisper and Tangle need panel time, as do Rough and Tumble,  even most of the games cast has gotten one issue each thus far, the current setting/continuity needs to be developed, Silver and Blaze's worlds, Eggman's return to form, etc. I think there's plenty to get through before expanding the cast even more.

Now that its been mentioned, I think a lot of recurring female heroes were lost with the Archie continuity- Sally and Bunnie in particular, Nicole, Honey, etc. just off the top of my head. That kinda just leaves the cast with Amy, Rouge (who's basically tied to Shadow), Blaze (who's from another world and rarely gets to appear), and Cream (who's notoriously difficult to write in an action setting), so it makes sense that Tangle and Whisper were introduced to be recurring characters.

Great insight, thanks.

Hopefully 2020 some new male heroes will arrive.

When's the new issue?

I would guess somewhere around the end of this month. That's how it's been for any issue that wasn't issue 8.

So you are looking for the color like, say, Squirtle? I don't know, but green characters are in the series, there's Jet who is a rival. But most importantly...

Vector the Crocodile!

He is a hero, and one of my favorite characters.

There was also Scourge the Hedgehog from the Archie Preboot, though he was retconned.
