Astounding. Here's someone's prawnsona eating cat food with someone else's fursona.  And... I get this, but I just don't understand.

crowfeathers posted:How about this, then: You can thank an insane person named Ken Penders for most of that. The Archie thread in BSS has some decent info on him, starting here: LateToTheParty posted:It's not Sega causing legal problems for Archie but it is actually one of the previous writers of the Sonic comics, Ken Penders. Essentially Penders claims that he owns all the "original characters" he made for the Knuckles comics. He wanted to use those characters in a graphic novel series called the The Lara-Su Chronicles. Archie responded to this by throwing all the Echidnas besides Knuckles into another dimension. The Lara-Su Chronicles? They look like this:  Canon Fanart that he won the right to produce in a lawsuit. Yeah. Niton has a new favorite as of 20:34 on Aug 19, 2013 |

They eat cat food and live in the slums in what is perhaps the shallowest allegory for apartheid known to man. The cat is some guy's fursona, though. I guess the joke is that they both eat cat food?

So... I guess it's not really their prawnsona, it's a character from the movie, but they do have a prawnsona. And so does their significant other.

I chose Prawnkus because I can't get enough Wikus....and neither my prawn-sona nor my mate's would likely be enjoying a cat food stash without the other ^_^ Besides, Wikus needs more love.....

My favorite thing about this is that prawns all look pretty much the same so a prawnsona is a prawn wearing a slightly different peice of tattered clothing.crowfeathers posted:That's not just any weird prawn thing, it's one of the aliens from District 9.

It is not your comic, Sonic. It is the furries. Zonekeeper posted:I wouldn't call anything prior to issue 160-ish "recent". They swapped out the entire writing/art crew in 2006 and it looks a lot better. Did all the other canon original characters get removed in this reboot?

I'd also like to point out that this team up of Dr.Wily and Dr. Robotnik: Turns out to be an actual tag-team in the VGCW (Video Game Championship Wrestling, thread link here) called "The Practice". And VGCW is probably itself a form of "weird fanart". But entertaining fanart nonetheless.

Putty posted:Did all the other canon original characters get removed in this reboot? More or less, but it isn't a reboot - everything going on is technically in the same continuity as always but the new staff cleaned house when they took over. Everything has mostly been trimmed down to characters that appear in games and the SatAM characters, and the game characters get a lot more focus than the SatAM group. The tone of the plot shifted significantly from "Furry Drama Series" to "Lighthearted Action-Adventure". As mentioned above, every single character involved in Penders' Echidna Soap Opera aside from Knuckles was tossed into a plothole and forgotten, while the rest of the 'baggage' was either killed off or sidelined. They still exist, but the plot pretty much ignores them in favor of the characters new readers actually give a poo poo about, i.e. the ones appearing in recently released games.

The fans of the Archie Sonic always seemed...a bit stranger then the fans of the game when I was younger and tried getting into the fandom. More intense, maybe? It was weird. I'm gonna blame furries.

I think that was because the game was where you were a blue guy that went mega fast, and you jumped on robots and a big fat walrus man, and sometimes you drowned, and if you waited long enough the blue guy would tap his foot impatiently because you're just sitting here, seriously? This is a game about going fast. I get the feeling that everything past the games about going fast was sort of a case of letting the lunatics run the asylum. They lost sight of what Sonic was supposed to be, which was fast. In closing,

Now they're about showing off how you can build a 3d physics engine without a friction mechanic.

That is supposed to be Blood Meridian fanart, right? Here's some more art of Judge Holden:       That last one looks like he'd be more concerned with killing the wabbit than anything else.

Everett True Punisher would make me read comics again. I went ahead and searched for Everett True on DA, but almost all of the results were just random True Blood crap. There was, at least, the eternal touchstone of Deviantart:  Wonky-anatomy Sonic fanart with song lyrics in the background!

Cookie Clicker, a little browser game inspired by Candy Box. Though much smaller in scale and variety, it's simple, addicting, gameplay, combined with it's increasing absurdity have made it popular online, and resulted in loads of fanart. Here is one peice of fanart I like the most, in video form. E: Was afraid of getting banned so I took out the DWM stuff.

Why the hell is this so addictive Having played it a bit, I have to admit that video is bizarrely charming in the same sort way as the game itself. I can't get that stupid inspiring music out of my head and I'm not sure if I want to. e: What is that music from? It's so stuck in my head oh my god
