PRIORITY Q&A

Dove

Hey guys, wasn't that last question awesome? Anyway, Ian: Bucky O'Hare SWAT Kats Gargoyles If you could choose to write an at least 24 issue comic on any of these franchises, which would you choose? Which would you be most excited for?

megakirbs

Hello! I absolutely loved the Metal Virus saga and Cream's portrayal especially. I felt it demonstrated a side of Cream we hadn't seen before. Do you currently have any plans for Cream the Rabbit in the next IDW arc? She is my favorite character, thanks!

Scurvy Piratehog

...The Metal Virus Saga ends the way it began....Was this intentional? If so, that’s kinda brilliant!

Digamma

was volume 1 of Cosmo originally going to be a full blown ongoing that got caught up in Archie transitioning to having it's non-Archie (the character) books into miniseries?...I guess you could extend this question to the Mighty Crusaders book from around the same time

Jib

I was curious, in the forces comic and the game, we never got to see how Shadow took down Infinite's squad as well as his reason.Were you ever planning to include that in the comic? And if not, how do you imagine it happened.

Ink Pants

Most Webtoons comics are formatted vertically for mobile... I was curious if [formatting Dorgune differently] was something that had crossed your minds.

Diane W.

Do you still think there should be a Sonic game, with Smith voicing Sonic, where he’s put into a situation where the metaphorical anvil gets dropped on how he’s characterized in the 2010s era, how he treats his friends, or how he tells his jokes, very poorly, or even the other characters and how they’ve acted since the 2010s such as Tails, or Shadow?

Johnny_B_Goode

Let's rewind back to the first episode of Sonic X. If you could put Sonic & co in any city in fiction at all as a result of chaos control gone wonky, which city would you pick?

AWF

Having worked on the Transformers x MLP crossover, I have to ask, who's your favorite Transformer? Also, bonus question for both you and Kyle, if you were a Transformer, what would your alternate mode be?

Scruffymatt

What do you guys think are some of the best video games trilogies that are out there?

STANDARD Q&A

Tik Tik

Does Sonic canonically see the world through a cartoony lens? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY_H4d68IUc that last couple lines from this progressive commercial just seems like a bit of a tidbit that SEGA believes to be true but doesn't tell the fans

PRIORITY Q&A

Andrew D.

Has SEGA ever told you what games were or were not canon? And for those that were non canon, did they say they could not be adapted at all due to being non canon?

Scurvy Piratehog

Since we never got to fully see it in World's unite...how would you imagine a proper crossover between modern Sonic and Sonic Boom to go? The Sonics interacting, Knuckles, Eggmen, ETC ETC ETC.

IanWaffles

How do you both feel about the hyper critical approach to media analysis we seem to find ourselves in nowadays? I often find I enjoy things more when I consider the time, circumstances, and people behind a project rather than treating everything in a vacuum. Do you think it creates healthy discourse for everything to be treated to such a strict and harsh standard of quality?

Digamma-F-Wau

Chronologically, when does Outlaw take place in relation to the main Drogune series? Given that the shonen jump contest chapter took place at Ruby Point and then the chapter of the main book that came out after Outlaw when the hiatus ended also took place at Ruby Point, it would be funny if what we have of Outlaw and that chapter of the main series was taking place at the same time unbeknownst to both parties, but obviously if that's not the case then that's not the case.

Johnny_B_Goode

Could you shed some light on the relationship between Rob O' the Hedge and the Albion echidnas? Rob appeared to be in a weird trance when he led Knuckles and the lost echidnas to the hidden city he never saw before, and then they were in some sort of alliance with the Albionites until their civilization was blown up by Eggman? What was up with that?

Diane W.

What are the possibilities of exploring Blaze having Iblis sealed inside of her before she Chaos Controlled herself into another dimension at the end of Silver’s campaign in Sonic ‘06, as well as the fact that Blaze was originally from Sonic’s world 200 years into the future and childhood friends with Silver before she was the princess of the Sol Dimension and keeper of the Sol Emeralds?

Papadripopolous

Thoughts from either of you on Daft Punk in general, now they've split up?

AfroLuffyX

Were the characters of Pre-reboot Archie Sonic.. erased from existence by the Genesis wave or they were reincarnated into the new continuity ..?

Hero of Light 13

As far as the IDW Sonic universe goes, what's the Avatar character up to while everything else is going?

N'Oni

I was replaying Sonic Adventure 2,
