What I genuinely do adore is on the cover Sonic is wracked with grief, body heaving with sobs, breathing coming in hitches broken by tears over Sally marrying somebody else the header still says "The World's Most Way Past Cool Comic!"

The odds state this was somebody's first Sonic comic and no doubt they were very confused indeed because they probably figured it would be about Sonic and Tails running fast and knocking over robots or something.

If you've got a lot of time, Cybershell a pretty extensive video on Penders

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlkWNlD62Pg

If you've got less time, this video by Comic Drake is more succinct. I mean, it's still half and hour long but there's a lot of poo poo to talk about with Penders.

quote:

As per the legal settlement of the case, new and increased mandates from Sega were put into effect in any and all Sonic the Hedgehog related contents, including (but not limited to): video games, television series, films, toys, and even comic books. For Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog comic series specifically, as relevant to the legal case, the following mandates in effect were (but possibly not limited to) as follows:

Sega-specific original characters were not permitted familial relationships unless already established (like Cream and Vanilla) with some limited exceptions (eg. Uncle Chuck). ACP-exclusive characters (Sally, Rotor, Bunnie, Antoine) were permitted, however.
Use of Penders' characters or any of his content from the Pre-Super Genesis Wave was forbidden (although settlement granted ACP legal use of his creations under limited conditions, reasons for not doing so are not disclosed to the public by either ACP or Sega Inc. as of this time).
Content from the following Sonic games were not permissible:
Metal Overlord from Sonic Heroes.
Black Doom from Shadow the Hedgehog.
All characters and content (with the exception of original Sega characters) from Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.
Replacing said characters with post-incarnations however, was permissible. (eg. Maximillian Acorn → Nigel Acorn).
ACP were forbidden to reference Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie, Sonic Underground or Sonic X unless granted specific permission from Sega.
ACP was forbidden from using the character Eggman Nega unless specifically granted permission from Sega.
Sonic the Hedgehog's home planet was no longer permitted to be referred to as "Mobius," be it Light, Dark, Prime, or otherwise.
Only one Metal Sonic was permitted for appearance, but no multiples.
With the exception of the character Nicole allowing affected characters to remember the previous universe, these memories were forced to "fade" and be rendered irrelevant.
Character depictions such as Classic Sonic, Classic Tails, Classic Eggman, or any other classic depictions of Sega's characters were not permitted unless permission is given directly from Sega. (However, some ACP publications showed scenes of the "Classic" characters in shadows, silhouettes, or bear resemblance to them in flashbacks). This mandate appeared to have been lifted as of the 25th anniversary of the Sonic franchise, however.
Sonic was not allowed to "lose." He could be "put down" and experience hardship but was not allowed to completely "fail."
Main and/or significant characters were forbidden to form intimate or love-relationships. ACP-exclusive characters were permitted, however (Bunnie and Antoine) but not with or between Sega's characters (Sonic and Sally).
Original Sega characters were to conform and stay conformed to their modern designs as of Sonic the Hedgehog #71. None were allowed to change or modify their existing wardrobe or wear any different wardrobe at all, regardless of the story context. The permitted ACP-exclusive characters' appearances differentiated from the original continuity in some shape or form.
Sega characters could not be "killed-off."

An example of the established-requirement of censorship of emotion from Sonic the Hedgehog #166. (left: original, right: current)

Sonic is not allowed to show excessive emotion.

it actually rules that ken penders despite working in the industry for decades has no idea how comics work and gets incredibly angry when another writer uses "his characters" that he never owned in the first place because he was writing a tie-in comic for a video game franchise and has no claim to ownership to anything he made for it

16-bit Butt-Head

the only reason he won the lawsuit is because of archie's incompetence and sega rightfully deciding that going to court over a bunch of knuckles recolors and pepe le pew the self insert wasnt worth the hassle because they are never using any of those characters in anything and if penders tried to use knuckles in anything they will obliterate him with lawyers and he knows it

As a bit of tangent from that, I also enjoy Internet Today for a good television news show replacement

IIRC Penders had a weird thing about that and very rarely ever used elements from the games unless forced and usually used them wrong because he wouldn't even do cursory research. Which led to the hilarious and infamous Sonic Live comic which used photos of relatives of Penders "playing sonic" with a television remote. Pretty much everything about those comics is mind boggling. Like the time one of the writers created a fake writer to write as and even interviewed because he thought people didn't like his stories out of personal bias.

My favorite thing Penders tried to take credit for was somebody snitching to Ken that "hey in the second movie Tails flies a biplane while Sonic stands on top of it JUST LIKE A COMIC YOU DID!" and Ken is all "hmm, very interesting, huh?" Also it's in the very second Sonic game, but you know. That's our Ken!

HOLD ON GUYS I'M POSTING ABOUT INTERNET ROBOTS
I listened to the cybershell video and my favourite Penders thing is him claiming a character design and name from a videogame because they were maybe loosely based on something of his. Like, he didn't just go "you can't do that, that's mine" he went "OK, that character name and artwork are mine now"
