The only way your Shadow insertions could have been more epic, is if you had an even MORE annoyed/eye-rolling pic after, "he was partnered with Sir Kicks-a-lot." :P
I'd certainly be interested in this. It'd be near the top "Things I must buy in my lifetime", bested only by the entire collection of Calvin and Hobbes comics.
SEGA mandate, believe it or not. Sally was - and is - the most popular/recognized non-SEGA character in the franchise. At the time, they were interested in testing her marketability and wanted her to live on. I'll go into more detail when I (eventually) get to the Sally mini-series.
I love the running gag of Shadow's angry expression. If you want, you can use that in future installments, too.
This era was one I remember fondly, and I loved the Mecha Madness storyline, especially on account of Spaz's killer artwork. I also recall being sad when Sally was "killed", but relieved when she was brought back to life. I bet the comic would've been a heck of a lot different if the original plan to have Sally stay dead would've stuck.
It's interesting seeing how the story planned out and went it's own away from the games where the Fleetway comics tried to stay as close to the cannon as possible.
Nice recap as usual. It was a bit funnier this time actually. Funny how you kept inserting the Shadow angry face. I laughed when you made the sound effect for the bonus at the end. I also love how you have no shame. ;) Nice and informative overall, but a shame you omitted some details (like some things about/in the Tails mini series, and a couple other things), but it's understandable why you did in the end.
CONTINUE THIS!!!

Those last scenes were from #51. That was one trippy issue, a definite favorite of mine.

The "Sally is a duplicate spy" story idea sounds intriguing. Any explanation for exactly why it was dropped?

That pocket dimension thing seems like something done by Grant Morrison.

I am excited to see the World Tour era next!

Another great review. Now I have to imagine what would've happened if the robot Sally plot hadn't gotten scrapped.
