Up, over, and gone!
Do you guys remember theJustice League Unlimitedepisode “Epilogue”? It officially wrapped up the story of Terry McGinnis several years following the end ofBatman Beyond, and it might be the best episode ofJLU, hands down. Fan service at its finest, indeed.
Next question: Is anybody clamoring for a proper epilogue toSonic Underground? Of the three AmericanSonicseries, it was easily the least beloved. Sonic gained a brother and sister named Manic and Sonia (all voiced by Jaleel White, including the girl), and they traveled the world in search of their mother, the deposed Queen of Mobius, all while fighting Robotnik’s army with the power of music. Yet somehow, it managed to have a longer run than the superiorSonic the HedgehogSatAM before getting cancelled.
Regardless, Archie is planning aSonic Undergroundreunion forSonic Universe#50, which ought to arrive in March 2013. The story will be written byIan Flynn, natch, and will follow the hedgehog trio’s adventures following the show’s end. In the gallery is an early look at the cover by Archie’s golden cover artist Patrick “Spaz” Spaziante, who really deserves to be doing more pencil work on theSonic/Mega Manstories themselves. Seriously, his art actually makesSonic Undergroundlook appealing!
But Archie has surprised me in the past, so I’ll hold off on any judgment until I see what voodoo the comic studio casts on this adaptation. At least print media means we won’t have toheartheannoying musical numbersthat the characters break into in every episode, so that’s a plus.
