    Been thinking a lot about Super forms, so it's about time we went back to Archie to checkout the famous Super Sonic vs. Hyper Knuckles one-shot special!
    You team yellow or team pink??

    There is something really delightful in seeing these two superpowered, invincible, immortal beings just yelling schoolyard insults and yanking each other's hair.
    I generally prefer things to have an actual, you know, story, but as I get older I really appreciate the vibe of the early Archie run. They really encapsulate an era of sincere, goofy fun that you just don't see anymore.

    One thing I do love about the Archie Super forms is that they all have unique adjectives for them. You got Super Sonic, Hyper Knuckles, Turbo Tails, Master Mogul, Perfect Chaos, it was cool. Kinda wish they kept that for some of the characters. Like instead of Super and Hyper Knuckles, we get Hyper and Ultimate Knuckles. Instead of Super Mighty, we get All Mighty. Instead of Super Ray, we get Ultra Ray, etc.

      Yeah, really freaking sad that the only character they bothered doing this for canonically is Burning Blaze. And Burning Blaze isn't even a clever pun like Super Sonic, it's just an alliteration that literally translates to "Fire on fire". And some versions of this transformation like the Archie one aren't even actually on fire, at least that's something IDW fixed.

    I wonder how the Chaotix of the games/IDW would react to meeting their pre-SGW Archie counterparts, mainly in that Knuckles leads the Chaotix.
    Unrelated but I had this idea where if Julie-Su existed in Sonic Boom, she and Knuckles would have a relationship akin to Nicole and Richard from Gumball where she’d love Knuckles in spite of his idiocy.

  • @Alhedgehog
    @Alhedgehog Год назад +5

    Yeah! I love to hear talk about Archie Sonic comics from people who were consuming them when they were relevant. Comics have changed a lot over the years and I feel like people brush off this run a little too much. Quality could have definitely been better, but I love how insane and experimental they got. The wild artwork and ideas sparked all sorts of creative stuff in my head, and sometimes that's more valuable than a well polished take on an existing formula. Granted Archie Sonic did plenty of crappy takes on existing formulas, but when they kick it up it's so much fun.

  • @ドラゴンリュー-f1x

  • @Bofrab

    I’m assuming the emeralds are gray on the cover because their energy is getting absorbed by Sonic and Knuckles. You can see a green aura around the emeralds, showing their power getting sapped away.

    Your thoughts are all pretty much the exact same I had, to being excited for the comic, to the funny little jokes and interludes, to being a little disappointed in the fight and confused by the elements inside the zone, to still being happy it happened, everything. This comic was great and it was amazing to revisit it here now.

    Back in the day, it was easier to accept the inaccuracies of how the the Super forms looked, how the special zone looked, and other details. Because not every kid was capable of beating the Genesis games, especially if you weren't using a Game Genie or any cheats. You might get to see Super Sonic or Hyper Knuckles maybe once (might not even be on your copy of the game, might be on a friend's copy or something), and you'd have hazy memories of it at best by the time you picked up the comic. There was no internet. No one sharing game sprites. No one talking about the finer details. You could still notice things, like the Emeralds being multicolored in the games and not all green, but it was still a lot easier to enjoy and accept whatever the Archie comics were doings.

    I'm suprised, I wasn't expecting an Archie video but I'm glad it's on an issue that I own! I don't mean to be picky, but the emeralds on the cover look less Grey and more like a combination of the green, cyan and white emeralds from the games. The material the cover and pages are made of were printed more like a newspaper or a paper back book, so there isn't a glossy finish like new-er comics. I'm sure the quality has degraded and the paper isn't as white now, but the colors are definitely darker/less saturated than the updated "Sonic Select" scanned print. Sorry for long comment, but it's one of my most Valuable comics and most favorite sonic anything. Thank you for doing such a nice video about this weird, hype, goofy story

    We haven't seen super forms clash?... 9runs through all the modern games in head)... huh, no I guess we don't. Doesn't help they don't want anyone beyond hedgehogs to have super forms, but only thing coming to mind is Sonic and Shadow, but that was in Sonic X, an anime, even if based off the Adventure games that doesn't happen in any games. Super weird to think about, but I guess makes sense, super forms 9and by extension hyper) are only from inate goodness of chaos energy. Like Perfect Chaos or Metal Overlord... I guess coooould count? Because they're using negative energy, but it is a monsterous form, not super, and... well by extension that's kind of werehog Sonic.
    There is 1 game I can think of... but it involves spoilers... only say Triple Trouble 16 bit Remake, play it, free, super fun, easy to get and play, Game Jolt, or if you want playthroughs of it there are many out there.
