PATREON PRIORITY Q&A

EggmanInc

In S.U. #88, it's stated that a "catastrophic event blasted Pancardina into a series of islands, with the Trolls (Walter Naugus' race)  being all but wiped out overnight", What was this event, or what caused it?

IanWaffles

What do you think was the appeal of the Sonic and Sally relationship? Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but it seemed like you changed their romance from an “opposites attract” dynamic to one where the two cared for each other so much that they could set aside their contrasting personalities and stop bickering. Was this intentional or am I missing the mark?

Koopaling Krew

Without context or any continuity, what would happen if Marine and Sticks got stuck alone on an island, meeting for the first time?

Rael

What are your personal thoughts on Eggman's backstory? What do you imagine his family life was like? Was he always evil, or did something cause him to turn? What was he up to before meeting Sonic?

Andrew D.

In the latest issue, when Dr. Starline mentions the Warp Topaz altering reality, were the mushrooms and feathers in the flashback panel appearing as a result of reality altering, or were they already there? 2- Dr. Starline mentions that Eggman uses the Cacophonous Conch to control the Zeti, but in the games it was called the Cacophonic Conch. Are they two different names for the same item, was it purposely renamed, is it a different item, or what?

STANDARD Q&A

PC-The-Unicorn

I really enjoyed the answer you gave about alternative What If Scenarios of Sonic the Hedgehog would you like to do as stories, and now I want to actually return to the thing I first referenced in the question, about  Roll offering to fight the robot masters . Would it be a simple one-shot, or would you have liked for it it have been a miniseries? Would Roll have gone by Mega Woman or another name? In what ways would pivotal moments differ from the original such as when Roll would be fighting Proto Man before the events of Worlds Collide along with the showdown at Willy Castle to stop Wily from usin...

All I bought were groceries.

0:50 - Andrew's Black Friday adventure!

8:52 - The Mandalorian continues to be okay!

20:58 - I played Nioh. I didn't like Nioh.

Andrew D.

The solicit for issue 25 was recently revealed, and it seems like it still deals with the Metal Virus. I was under the assumption that every 12 issues is a separate season. Is 25 still part of season 2, or is the Metal Virus Saga taking up some of season 3 as well?

Koopaling Krew

perhaps you can discuss your thoughts on tv or book series that were canceled or put on hiatus but saw the light of day again thanks in part to fans?

STANDARD Q&A

JulezScar

What kind of wolf would you say Whisper is? (Red, Gray, Eastern, etc.)

PC-The- Unicorn

-So people have been making fan art between the two series for as long as I could remember and since now are both being published by the same company, I'm curious as to how you would approach making an officaly My little Pony Friendship is Magic and Sonic the Hedgehog crossover. Would the cast MLP be in Sonic world or vice versa? What specific character interactions between the two series would you want to write?

Matthew P.

In the IDW Sonic comic's, It's been established that Sonic and his friends live on one world, while the humans live on another. If that's the case, how did Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow the Hedgehog, and Sonic Unleashed play out? Did G.U.N., Professor Pickle, and Gerald Robotnik or any humans for that matter exist in Sonic's World or were the humans extinct when the game's occurred in the comic?

Liam B.

-What, if anything, is the one rule you cannot break if you want to make a good piece of art or entertainment? It seems history’s great works are a list of pieces that broke the rules, but is there one that is absolutely unbreakable?

Yeah, I'm that guy. Again.

0:44 - Microsoft's Inside Xbox event was poop.

6:37 - Google Stadia ain't going to do that well, methinks.

25:54 - Redesign makes Sonic look better but the movie still looks bad.

36:48 - I don't much care for The Mandalorian thus far.

7:02 PMWarren Lewis​Hi!

7:02 PMaddictedtochaos​Fine to be a fan but those are fanboys.

7:03 PMaddictedtochaos​Xbox always has a lot of needless talking rather than just let the games speak for themselves.

7:04 PMaddictedtochaos​It looks great but I still don’t know what it is. Hopefully single player.

7:05 PMjordan thompson​I was thinking about going to bed early but I got a notification for the podcast and I'm not gonna not watch Andrew so thanks for that (said sarcastically)

7:05 PMWarren Lewis​A Nightmare on Elm Street (Rare developed, LJN produced) I didn't know Rare was still around today.

7:06 PMjordan thompson​well I'm awake now

7:07 PMaddictedtochaos​But Xbox is getting Yakuza so more people will get to enjoy those games.

7:09 PMjordan thompson​what about the Verizon : galaxy, Apple : cosmos and the Nutella : stargate

7:12 PMjordan thompson​I have only this to say ...... Google +

7:12 PMWarren Lewis​that was cancelled wasn't it?

7:13 PMaddictedtochaos​They are just setting Stadia up to fail.

7:14 PMWarren Lewis​what about ChromeBooks?

7:15 PMjordan thompson​I'll stick with my tiger electronic

7:16 PMCyberian_Tiger​Hello again, Eisen.

7:17 PMaddictedtochaos​Just Dance 2020 on Wii outsold the PS4 and Xbox One versions in the first week.

7:22 PMCyberian_Tiger​I like the idea but just don't have the connection for it...paying 120USD a month for a damn data cap

7:23 PMaddictedtochaos​I bought it just because it will likely be the final Wii game ever.

7:23 PMmatthew wilson​the only shot stadia has is when it releases its free version whencyberpunk comes out, but even than I doubt it

7:23 PMCyberian_Tiger​I play FCC lax policys over the years.

7:23 PMjordan thompson​the Wii is lookin to never die like the ps2 tried to do

7:23 PMCyberian_Tiger​blame*

7:24 PMCyberian_Tiger​I'm looking forward to Cyberpunk, but after that No Man's Sky.. I'm just gonna wait till it releases. Then see what happens.

7:25 PMCyberian_Tiger​Or another service. To many subscriptions out there.

7:25 PMjordan thompson​a switch isn't in the cards for me right now but I was almost convinced when alien isolation was announced im a huge alien fan

7:27 PMCyberian_Tiger​I kinda liked the 1998 Godzilla

7:27 PMCyberian_Tiger​Then again I was 8 years old at the time.

7:28 PMjordan thompson​the film purist in me demands an original cut with the blu ray,

PATREON PRIORITY Q&A

Andrew D.

Are there limitations to original characters and magical items that you can create? For example, are you allowed to make your own robotic Sonic, your own primordial being like Dark Gaia, or your own set of gems? As for the Warp Topaz, were there restrictions on what you could and couldn’t do with it?

Did Ian ever have any plans involving the content from Sonic Colors? Was it ever brainstormed?

Ian Waffles

Ian, how do you keep yourself personally invested in the Sonic the Hedgehog series when it’s been your job for the past decade? I often take breaks from being into the Sonic series, or any series I like, and come back periodically. You haven’t had that luxury so I wondered how you could keep that balance of being a fan of the series, and working for the series. Thank you for your time.

My question for this episode involves the recent issue of IDW Sonic, Issue 22. A real soul-crusher of an issue, I loved it! So when the Monkey civilian revealed that he was infected and thus started the chaos, I wonder how he got in if Gemerl is the one scanning people for signs of infection? Is this something that might get addressed in the future, or shall it remain a mystery?

STANDARD Q&A

If the Mega Man comic had gotten all the way to the MM6 arc, do you think you would have expanded on the 1st Annual Robot Tournament? Like by adding a ton of new Robot Masters? Maybe covered the tournament battles proper in a miniseries?

Hiya, Ian! I had a question regarding my two favorite IDW original characters from the Sonic comics, Rough and Tumble. Do you think you may ever get around to exploring their backstory in the future? Answering questions like how Tumble's tail got detached, why did they become evil mercenaries by the time Forces occurred, and who exactly is the oldest of the two? And a possible miniseries starring them like with Tangle and Whisper? Thanks a bunch for your time!
