EXIT Megatox...
... and EXIT The Marxio Bros. I suspect this story was set-up for these dipshits to become morally dubious antagonists, but for whatever reason it just didn't happen.

Has Grimer really betrayed Robotnik? Is Shortfuse back for good? Will Chuck and the lads get any more time off?Find out on Monday, for more StC!
OP here, just wanted to check in with everyone now that we're about two thirds of the way through, and when the back-up strips get quietly shitcanned the end will come sooner than anyone might expect.I thought it'd be fun to post more /vr/ comics, so here's a poll for you kids to tell me what you'd like to see next!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71vPmzckALMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTRQh9yeEnUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtHRRZnJLCAhttps://strawpoll.com/e7ZJad68Bg3
>>12415121Mystic mog, based on this woman who used to pad out the UK lottery show and do newspaper horoscopes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pmUprGruxo
>>12415072I love Richard Elson's Sonic with the upward spikes and all, especially his take on Adventure, the way the comic portrayed Chaos was awesome.
>>12415267Based Millard fan.
>>12415135Remember absolutely howling at that last panel as a kid.Thanks for posting these, OP, brought back some great memories.
OP here; I'm going to have to delay my storytime today, as I've got some stuff to take care of irl
It was 1998, and Sega are in trouble. While they'd finally made it big in Japan, they also pissed away years of goodwill they'd built up in other countries. As a result, the Saturn had come a distant third in the console war overall, largely thanks to no new original Sonic platformer.StC also suffered from the dearth of new Sonic games. While they did a great job on their 100th issue and a decent adaptation of Sonic 3D Blast, there wasn't anything else to sink their teeth into - it seemed Sega wouldn't even let them adapt any Saturn games. Not to mention, StC was shedding once-regular features and quietly shipping beloved side characters off into the sunset with very little fanfare, offering nothing to replace them.Things needed to change.

EXIT Furor, because why not get rid of more fun side characters?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCCuOLqwZv8
S3DBH count: 26Also, EXIT Norris Wimple because... yeah, this guy had pretty much run his course.
Is the Floating Island doomed? Who is Agent X? Will Chuck have to pay any late fees on his library books?For answers to these questions and more, join me on Wednesday for more StC!
>>12423493Mick McMahon needs to be drug out into the street and shot for this abysmal art style.
OP again; I've just realised I've made a few errors. First of all, my Sonic 3D Blast Head count fails to take into account the constant use in every cover and most of the legal indicia, so I'll have to revise that.Also, >>12423342 EXIT Vermin the Cybernik. Much like Megatox and Metamorphia, he was a henchman that had run his course.>>12423507The worst part is that he was capable of doing amazing art - hell, even his brief run on Decap Attack showed he could still pull it off. StC's wiki tries to cover for him, but his stuff here is just abysmal
>>12423615Okay, counting all the reuse on the covers and legal indicia (I'm not counting all the times they just slapped it over the indicia a bunch of times, because I value my sanity) the Sonic 3D Blast Head count is now at an eye-watering 59, and it's only going to get higher
>>12423615It's weird - even from these awful strips, you can tell he's actually an incredible artist. It's just that he stuffs EVERY panel of EVERY comic he draws with fucking gerbil people. Like, from your example, he can draw amazing mechanical art. That last strip was set in the Metropolis zone. What does he draw? Wall-to-wall gerbil men. He probably just phoned it in - StC was maybe a step down for him, so he didn't give it 100%.
>>12423409Interesting that Nigel Kitching covered the colouring here - were they maybe trying to save money at this point? Either way, it's really not his forte.
>>12423507It's the fact that they all have human hands/arms that makes it extra cursed
>>12423241>Sega wouldn't even let them adapt any Saturn gamesGreat, now I'm imagining how great comic book adaptations of Panzer Dragoon and Burning Rangers could've been.
>>12425638You'll get Clockwork Knight drawn by Mick McMahon and like it
>>12426251I would, too
