THE FINALS
Silver the Hedgehog vs Bunnie D'Coolette
Silver the Hedgehog
Bunnie D'Coolette
The winner of the Super Genesis Smackdown is...
...BUNNIE D'COOLETTE!! She actually did it! Silver was a worthy opponent and this one really did come down to the wire, but in the end, Bunnie just managed to squeeze ahead. I'm so happy to see a comic girl win at least one of these tournaments :') Bunnie is iconic and while the post-SGW comics were short-lived, we did get a selection of great Bunnie content and even a look at her backstory in Sonic Comic Origins story "Belle in the Machine". Not to mention the adorable brother-sister bond the reboot gave her with Tails:
Sadly, the comics were cancelled soon before we were going to get a Bunnie issue of Sonic Universe, but we did at least get to see this wonderful cover that parodies the cover of Sonic Rush and has Bunnie taking centre stage:
If you aren't familiar with the Archie Sonic Comics, unfortunately there are very few ways to get hold of them now short of finding them secondhand somewhere. I promoted places where you could buy the IDW Sonic Comics on the winner's post for that tournament, because I think that it's important to support these comics and the people who make them, but you can't do that for Archie now. If only there was another way to get them... Hmm! For no particular reason, here's an adorable cover featuring Pirate Sonic and Crew (which sadly does not feature Bunnie), which I'm sure has nothing to do with how you might find these out-of-print comics:
ANYWAY! To Bunnie! And also to Silver, for having a brilliant arc in Sonic Universe that saw him through to the finals. Thank you for taking part in this tournament. I leave you all with this Buntoine:
