Holy poo poo, I clicked through and looked at this and had this sinking sensation, "wait a second, this seems awfully familiar" and apparently I had the issue immediately following it from some kinda blind buy bag a million years ago. Looking at it as an adult is as hell. Literally the only things I remember that make me 100% sure are the cover, the scene with the dingoes in the cab, and Knuckles being in like a page and a half in the background in the world's dumbest training montage. I only remember the dingoes because even as a kid I thought they were super overwrought.

Kurui Reiten posted:I almost don't want to bother with an effort post on the history of Echidnaopolis, but I think I'll start off with like, the first Knuckles backup stories, the first miniseries, and the first three issues of his ongoing. That should basically give you the basics of how loving bungled this entire thing is. When I was a kid I thought the Knuckles storylines were super cool and dark because they were complicated and seemed mysterious since I only had a couple random back issues of Knuckles, and they had the added bonus of no Ron Lim art. Obviously Ken Penders is a crazy person, but I think the general idea of having a more fleshed-out and interwoven story was sound even if Penders was about the least qualified person in the world to do it.

This was giving me weird vague flashbacks so I looked up a cover gallery and this is kind of weirdly specifically a mashup of the covers of Knuckles #16 and 17. The cover of 16 is by Penders himself.

16-bit Butt-Head posted:penders has slowly unlearned how to draw I feel like even most of the stuff he was credited for in the Archie era was heavily fixed by Spaziante et al (which I hope I'm spelling correctly but I ain't calling him by his old moniker these days).
