This cover is so important.

This is one of the retail incentive covers of IDW Sonic issue 1, 5th Anniversary Edition, illustrated by Adam Bryce Thomas and coloured by Reggie Graham. When I look at it, something about it tells a story to me, and that story is beautiful.

Sonic and Amy are at the Riverside Romp with Cream and Vanilla, but the rabbits are clearly giving them some space while doing their own thing.

Riverside is the town where Sonic and Amy meet for the first time in the comic series. The archway that holds the sign is also one of the decaying legs from Eggman’s crab mech, the first mech they fight together. Riverside is incredibly symbolic to them both, like how Never Lake would be in the games.

Their journey started rocky at Riverside. They couldn’t see eye-to-eye and had different approaches to how they both could help restore the world after the war. And yet, they still fully respected each other, dishing out compliments and praise and a desire to work together (in different ways). Amy even professes her love for Sonic and vows to him that she never wants to change him, and he bashfully asks her to stay with him in return. They cared for each other, loved each other, immensely then, and now, they’ve chosen to return to Riverside stronger as a pair and as individuals.

Sonic and Amy spend their day together, but they’re both their own people. Amy fawns over the sweets and the loving decorations while Sonic ogles a chilidog. They both indulge in their interests, but close together. One doesn’t need to be exactly like the other, and neither of them want that for the other. As long as they know the other’s there and always will be, that’s all they need. Being their own people despite their connection is what strengthens their bond, because the admiration they have for each other and their differences is so high.

But then, they still want to be together. They dance and cheer with interlocked fingers while sparks fly between their hearts. Cherry blossom petals sway around them, delighting in new beginnings and young love. Sonic and Amy compliment each other, bringing out the brighter sides of theirs souls. Amy’s having the time of her life, living in the moment knowing that Sonic is there with her now and always. But, beautifully, Sonic’s living the moment with with her, taking in her excitement and beauty. He usually doesn’t allow himself the pleasure, but he can’t help it, now.

Sonic and Amy have such a deep understanding of each other that it transcends language. They are in love, and I am in love with them.

Sonic X Justice League was announced back in September, and features the DC super-team crossing over with Sonic the Hedgehog. Ian Flynn and Adam Bryce Thomas pit Sonic, Knuckles and the rest against Darkseid, with a little help from Superman, Batman and more. Pablo Collar did the cover.

Reposting my ABT whispangle comm for positivity.

He’s like the most kind and chill dude ever.

Damn, that was cathartic.

Silver's finally back from mid-2023! These are redraws of my own work from a couple years ago.

1st/2nd = Just finished the lineart right now.

3rd = The og piece, that I've made in 2023.

Some of my favourite panels by this point, each by different artists.

I'm a huge fan of the many different art styles that IDW Sonic uses! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's skills evolve in future issues.

You forgot that, despite the headbutting, Lanolin and Holdo have admitted to actually viewing their loose canons positively. Though I guess that's in reverse order

According to Adam Bryce Thomas, we're supposed to interpret this panel as Lanolin having a "fake smile" because of the shape of the dimples

Which uhhh??

Art criticism aside ....

Apparently he is intending us to understand this as meaning that Lanolin was always a cunt who hated Sonic, basically. If I'm understanding correctly.

So the panel of Lanolin saying she's grateful to Sonic for saving her is not meant to be interpreted as sincere. According to the artist and creator of the character.

So frankly it seems like sheep girl doesn't even have that going for her.

I absolutely love your Lead to Light AU. I hope this doesn't spoil anything big you might have for future fics. I'm curious: Does Lanolin have the same relationship with her mom that Adam Bryce Thomas depicts, or do you have another plan for your AU?

I'm so happy to hear that you like it! Just for you I'll answer your question.

So you remember this comic ABT made before he fully revealed Lanolin’s mom?

See, my dumb ass misread it. Not noticing the father was the one gone. Now, do remember this part from "Move Along"? Where Lanolin has a flashback inducing panic attack that Silver has to pull her out of?

This is a really roundabout way of saying that Lanolin’s mom is very dead and it's her father that's alive.

By the time I realized my mistake it was far too late. This was made more complicated upon learning that her mom is apparently, as depicted by ABT, an overbearing narcissist. Needless to say I had my work cut out for me making this work. The solution I've found is to write her mom as still overbearing but far more likable. The relationship Lanolin had with her mom was complicated but not so bad that she didn't heavily mourn her death. She wasn't perfect but she wasn't a bad mom. The relationship she has with her father now is a whole different beast. I'll reveal more details as the AU goes on.
