Borvoc Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 While we're discussing dates, it's not directly related, and I'm sure everyone's already aware, but the "Gotta Go Fast: The Official Panel of Sonic the Hedgehog" panel will be streaming live from SXSW via the official Sonic Twitch channel at 3pm Pacific/6pm Eastern/10pm UK time., following the Sonic PR’s scheduled weekly live stream at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern/11pm UK time., following the Sonic PR’s scheduled weekly live stream and will go for about an hour. I doubt we'll get any comic-related info, but you never know what you'll be able to glean. Edit: At the very least, I expect it to elicit more speculation in this thread and among the fandom at large. Edit 2: Updated time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Panda Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 What I find perplexing is that Black Hood is still running and yet there's no subscription page for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Vest Friend Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Black Hood is too infrequent for a regular subscription plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Panda Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 So are Afterlife and CAoS, and they have 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Vest Friend Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 More often than a usually yearly basis still. It might not even see a full subscription amount of issues at the rate it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time either of them had a release was almost over a year ago already. And neither of them even have a full year's worth of issues under their belts (Afterlife is at 10, I believe, and Sabrina is at 6 after two years).

Season 1 ran for 10 issues from April 2015 to August 2016, and Season 2 began this past December. Meanwhile Afterlife's longest gap was a full year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaysho Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 My mistake. Honestly thought it was longer, but considering my personal life at the time, I can see why I'd completely forget about them. Though makes me wonder how exactly they charge for issues if they're almost never delivered due to constant delays. Makes me uncomfortable seeing them take money for books that aren't even printed.

Your Vest Friend Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Right, so someone asked about the comic at the SXSW panel, and...we're no closer to finding out what's going on. Aaron doesn't have an update on it, but he has said if he gets one he'll let people know. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goku262002 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I hope someone stressed to him that this isn't just put a post-it note on the screen type thing, this is costing people! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Vest Friend Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Unfortunately, it's probably a pretty low priority for Aaron, what with juggling both Mania and Forces amongst other things. He's not really on the right rung to be kept that up to date with it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goku262002 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Still, he does have connections and Sonic Overdrive was a big part of the 25th anniversary media push at one point, at least inquiring about Overdrive will shed some light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RictalRose0 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I'm pretty sure Aaron is at least on friendly terms with Tyson Hesse. He does love memes and Tyson produces some pretty nice memes. But if Hesse himaself hasn''t talked about it I doubt Aaron will. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heese mentioned he knows what's happening on Twitter but won't tell what. The only info he dropped was that Archie didn't forget to renew the licence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RictalRose0 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Yeah I know about that. But he hasn't said anything ever since and honestly i'm not sure if his answer was a positive or a negative that the comic was okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more, nothing less. He slapped down a silly conspiracy theory and then quickly swallowed his tongue because like everyone else involved in this entire situation, whatever is going down, he is clearly not at leeway to talk about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquaz Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Not sure if it's an old news, but I've just received information that StH 05: Champions trade was cancelled... That's just getting better and better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Vest Friend Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 It was definitely in question because of the Amazon listing, but not outright confirmed. Where they'd get that info? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Vest Friend Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Okay, odd they cancelled that so far in advance while the others keep rolling over, but I dunno what Archie are thinking at this point. Still, not a good sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really happy that someone asked about this during Q&A at SXSW. I'm tired of waiting. It's going on for too long - they should either ditch this franchise or keep going - now.

It's the equivalent of saying "No Comment." The situation seems like its still fluid and neither side, SEGA or Archie, has commented on this for a reason. There are likely higher-ups at both companies working on it while people like Aaron are only being told information when they can share it, which leaves us all in the dark. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
