Are you sure? It seems unlikely that a high-speed anthropomorphic hedgehog and his fox boyfriend with the bifurcated tail would have a strange backstory.

The thing about the Sonic comics is that they were entirely unrelated to the games (apart from adapting specific game plots from time to time) so there's at least a dozen different Sonic "universes" at this point.

Besides, the Archie comics were always inferior to the British Fleetway comics.

The SatAM/early Archie characters showed up in a bonus stage in Sonic Spinball, of all places. And that was it.

For the record, here's what wikipedia has to say on Sonic Spinball's development period.

quote:

In the space of 61 days between mid-June and August 1993, the project evolved from being a roughly playable build with no collision detection systems or character animations, to a fully completed game.

What can I say, I was like six when Sonic the Hedgehog had a cartoon. :v:

I think the cartoon shared characters with the comics, but not any of the writing staff.

I played the games a fair bit as a kid, but 3 pages ago in this thread is the first time I learnt that there was ever a cartoon or comics. Maybe they didn't make it to Australia ?

As an Aussie, we only got one of the cartoons (not the weird grim dark one), and we got the comics.

Maybe you just missed them? :shrug:

I guess so. I may've been too young; the early '90s was mostly Bananas in Pyjamas and Playschool.

I remember getting Sonic Underground as an early-morning cartoon and seeing VHS's of the not-SatAM cartoon as a kid. I think we got a bit of SatAM at one point on something like CheezTV or Agro's Cartoon Connection, maybe?

Would’ve been CheezTV or whatever came after that. AOSTH was on ABC for a bit too.

Considering the character in question exists only in the comics and never the games, you would be absolutely correct.

Someone mentioned it before, but Archie literally lost his contract. I believe he produced a really suspect looking photocopy that said it all belonged to him, and Archie just kind of shrugged because they didn't care about the loving echidnas.
I can't believe they didn't fight harder to keep such amazing characters as "Knuckles but with a hat"

I read that first as "You don't know how to gently caress an rear end in a top hat" and it really changed the dynamic of the comic.
