Anyway, I'll post 2 comics this coming week to make up for this week. And I'll try to get in a video on YouTube as well. Until then, Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!!
If there's any big news I'll post it when I get around to it.

No Comic this Week (Spring Break)
So, for the record, the reason I didn't post a comic last night was because I'm in New Jersey right now over spring break. Just saw Motley Crue, Hinder and Theory of a Dead Man last night at the Garden. The Last Vegas played too as an opener, which I believe was the same band that opened for the Foo Fighters when I saw them over the summer.

I'm posting this a bit early tonight because I have a lot of homework and such to get done. Wish me luck!

Comic #2 and News
So here's the second comic strip:
Apparently, the director of the critically panned Sonic Unleashed has announced that the Werehog will return in another game. Before I go into the problems that would pose for the gaming community that said both the Werehog and Chip were bad additions, I'd like to note that the main problem w/ this is in the plot: the Werehog is Gaia-driven and Gaia (both Light and Dark) were sealed away for millions of years at teh end of Unleashed. So for the Werehog to return w/ the stretchy arms Gaia would need to be released again, which means copying the plot from the first game. Now that's pushin' it even for a Sonic plot. Sonic games follow a formula, not a Xerox.
Back to the gaming community. I realize most of my peers detested Sonic's latest entry into the market, but I did not have such hatred for it. There were parts I could've done w/o and parts I really enjoyed. While it's true that the nighttime levels are far too long, it's also true that the daytime levels are gorgeous and feel much like the previous 2D entries in the series. The daytime levels are what you would get if you mixed Sonic Adventure 2 w/ Sonic Rush. For those of you who haven't played Sonic Rush, I reviewed it and it's under the "reviews" category to the right. All that said, I defended the Werehog simply because they tried to take the series in a new direction that wasn't compltely flawed, it just wasn't very polished. I cannot bring myself to defend another attempt at a failed experiment unless the majority of the players and critics agreed that it had a good amount of potential and deserved another chance.
I plan on doing a full review of Sonic Unleashed just so I can express my opinion more thoroughly. But that'll be later, once I've done all my school papers and such.
EDIT: OK, so strip's still too large when you click on it. I'll figure it out and fix this problem. My bad.

Weekly Comic #1
Scanner's acting all funny. Give me a just a few more minutes.
...
There we go. Stay tuned for my vlog on YouTube tomorrow (Wednesday); I'll link to it.
EDIT: Ok, so clicking on the comic makes it a bit too large. I'll remember that for next time and scale it down a tad. And I'll also make more time to shade and properly ink the comics from now on. My b.
