THIS ISSUE ENDS BY TAKING OUT MY HEART AND FRICKING SHATTERING IT

First off, yes, Eggman has Sonic distracted so that he can handle Sally and kill her off-screen. THEN he initiates his master-plan that’s been built up for so long, Operation: Clean Sweep. Remember, he thought of this plan during his time when he reasoned himself from insanity. And the kicker? It WORKS. Whatever the Death Egg did, it uses the Chaos Emerald to send out a wave that even reaches outer space, and the entirety of Mobius is, quite literally, rewritten as everything fades to white. All colour is washed out, along with the linework soon after, while Sonic reaches out to his sweetheart.

Most of these pages are Sonic fighting the new Silver Sonic, but we get scenes like this for some emotional impact. Eggman mocks Sally for problems she had a hand in in the past, though they’re technically not entirely her fault. Its still nice getting callbacks to old issues, even way back in the comic’s history. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve seen the word “Overlander” since #130 or so...

Similar to how another lackey to Dr. Eggman is feeling in the IDW Publications, Snively and Lien-Da are fricking ticked off that the good doctor enjoys setting himself up to give his arch enemy a chance to stop him.

As I figured, Sonic and Ixis Naugus are forming a truce, and we get more good witty dialogue from Sonic!
