This inability to be far away from each other was previously mentioned in this strip, although chronologically it takes place before that one, so… was it mentioned later? Only time will tell.
Anyway, last week they announced that new Sonic The Hedgehog thingy, Sonic Boom, and I felt compelled to follow suit and redesign the characters in my comic. Not unlike Sonic Boom, these versions of my characters exist in a parallel universe, which is contained entirely in this one drawing I made.
Now that I look at that again, I see what they were actually going for (the whole Indiana Jones-ish aesthetic).
The first time, I was too distracted by Knuckles being absurdly huge and Amy wearing Tikal’s clothes and Sonic being a hipster. (Okay not really on that last one but I wanted something to make fun of him for.) And the duct-tape shoes.
I don’t see the problem with making knuckles the big guy.
I just realized that tombstone says “yellow scienceman DEAD”
I didn’t have the room to write out the traditional “year of birth-year of death” thing and I didn’t know/want to reveal what year this takes place in, so it just seemed easier to write “DEAD” on his tombstone.
