    That's what I told myself, Sonic is the person Knuckles misses in his life.
    A person who can help him forget him hard life and help him make friends.
    Everyone in his chapter helps make him less lonely: Vector and the Chaotix sometimes hang out with him, Rouge allows him to fight and let off steam, and Sonic and the others allow to relax him

    I must admit that these stories truly gave us a lot about these characters:
    -Surge truly wants in a misguided way to be a hero, despite wanting to eliminate Sonic, Tails and Eggman, she truly wants to inspire people to stand up and don't let themselves be threatned by villains, however Kit in the other hand, wants to make Surge a hero, however he is intentions are cruel and toxic, as he doesn't care about civilians getting hurt, as in his eyes as long Surge's happy then is worth it.
    -Knuckles' story actually feels like building up when the time skip after Frontiers happens, as we can see how all the adventures he went with Sonic and his friends, allowed him to desire a life beyond being the guardian of the Master Emerald, which is nice, specially the ending.
    -Finally Mimic's tale truly shows us how messed up he is in the inside, feeling like a social outcast before the war, Mimic never connected with anyone, and always ditched them when he grew bored of them, that until he met the Diamond Cutters, and feel an actual connection for once, however it caused Mimic to realize that despite wanting to be accepted by someone, he decided at the end that these feelings were hurting him, at the end siding with Eggman, despite questioning his behaviour, Mimic decided to be a monster as for him it more easier to be one than being part of a group.

    This was a great annual. It’s interesting that Surge and Kit are sort of Chaotic Neutral now, wanting to kill Sonic, Tails, and Eggman, but also genuinely wanting to be heroic. Mimic’s backstory was interesting too, and I like how it fleshed him out without making him sympathetic. I wonder what’s going to happen in Issue 75 that leads to all of this, same with Issue 80.

  • @brunoargueta5691

    I really liked this annual issue, gives us an insight on what certain characters are and what they are doing and what it'll bring to future issues. Surge and Kit's story taking place after the phantom riders arc is interesting and i believe kit is a very dangerous and volatile person but does what he thinks is best for surge. Knuckles' story taking place after the scattered pieces are gives us a hint that while clean sweep Inc put up one heck of a fight, given the extensive damage on the tornado, the heroes are victorious, though well have to wait for the events leading up to the victory. Mimic's story is a flashback to what he was doing before becoming a diamond cutter and subsequently betraying the OG members and traumatizing Whisper, which is a treat seeing how she was before her teammates were killed by Shadow Androids and that shows how much Mimic's betrayal affected her, from speaking normally and having her eyes open unless in the field, to how she is currently. And how this story gives us an insight on how Mimic thinks. This is some what like this phrase attached to both mimic and whisper "neither can live, if the other survives"

    Something tells me long term Kits going to end up being the true villain, Surge actually wants to do good which is even acknowledged by Kit, and I cant imagine the fallout when the one person she trusts Kit, betrays her by sabotaging her plans, imagine how Kit would react if Surge walked off on him, I can see Kit going off the deep end and becoming a huge threat, perhaps a big enough threat to make her rethink everything.

THIS is what we should be getting from the current Diamond Cutters along with Whisper adjusting to working with a team again, not being constantly hit with contrived reasons to not get anything done along with forced drama and Whisper crying and needing hugs for the umpteenth time. Hopefully Ian will give us just that when he comes back to writing after Evan's controversial time as a writer.

    So I've noticed 2 interesting things:
    - one of the original 'selfish' bullies who helped to drag Mimic out of the studio was an Opossum, which is interesting considering he's currently in happy kahoots with Clutch.
    - Kit said 'only the idiot masses suffer' when coming up with his own plan, but it was stated a little while ago that the one evil that Mimic can't handle and absolutely hates is unecessary civilian casualties, so this makes me wonder... will Mimic end up throwing away his current 'masking' persona, clashing with Kit in the next arc because the fennec's actions go against his own morals? Plus will the others have to help Surge because Kit put her in danger? It would be interesting to see 👀
    This annual had a lot to digest 😅

      I see what you mean with Mimic, but I think his response would be more him just dipping out rather than trying to stop it or save anyone besides himself. More akin to "Okay. This guys a nut job. I want no part of this. I am outta here. Good luck everyone...you're going to need it."

    I find it kind of funny how this somehow gave slight spoilers about what will happen in the mainline issues, Kit will apparently sabotage Surge's plans just to continue acting like a hero (which I liked in a way where he's acting more autonomously instead of just blindly following Surge's orders). Knuckles' story was the one I enjoyed the most, mainly because of the art and the monologue and man, I love this calmer and more relaxing vibe of stories like this, I like a good story full of action and cool moments but a break to breathe is also good and Knuckles' story shows this well (not to mention that Adam Bryce Thomas cooked with these pages, just look at that art and symbolism!) The music from Big's store in Frontiers also gave a good vibe, now Mimic's story was something I liked and had been missing for a while with that vibe that the issues had at the beginning like "we're exploring Sonic's world and it's fun! look at how many things and events happened and happen simultaneously and the that can be worked on in the future!" and I liked this development of Mimic, deep down he must feel bad for betraying those who accepted him willingly but he probably won't go back on his path, I just don't know if I understood the last page correctly, when he says "who are you?" was it like a breaking of the fourth wall and is he talking to the reader (in this case, us) or did someone approach him by surprise? This last option crossed my mind as a plot twist and a good cliffhanger lol

      He said it himself, that we all have a void, that we all hide behind a mask, a mirror, or a porcelain facade. When we take off the mask, spread the cracks in the mirror to break it, or shatter the porcelain, we realize that subconsciously the version we try to hide might be the true self, and that the version we put on for show is just a charade, a facade, we put on a brave face, but are afraid on the inside, a good person lending help, only to be bad. So, who are you? What version of you is the painting on the canvas? Is it real, or subconsciously fake?

      I agree with the others that I think he’s talking to himself or perhaps he’s talking to his conscience , because as much as he wants to pretend it doesn’t exist, it seems like his guilt will keep coming back to haunt him over what he’s done.
      The impression I get is that mimic has worked so hard to separate himself from his compassion that he tries to view it as a separate person, so he gets afraid whenever it begins to reassert itself because it forces him to confront his regrets.
      I think there’s irony in the fact that Mimic claims everyone else is fake and he’s the only person that’s honest with who they are, when in truth he’s lying to himself and trying to deny how he truly feels.
      Assuming this is explored further I’d find it really interesting to see Mimic’s arc ending with him having to accept that he does truly feel remorse and subsequently having a breakdown over everything he’s done.

    2. Knuckles having a major role on future stories
    1. Sonic FINALLY growing up and being more mature
    Things i DON'T want to see:
    6. Having more useless "special comics" that nobody cares
    5. Sonic still forgiving his enemies like they didn't do anything bad
    4. The other IDW villains being killed by Eggman like if they never mattered
    3. Another dumb story where Sonic and the gang team up with Eggman, only to being betrayed by Eggman on the last minute AGAIN
    2. Eggman being most evil, threathing, supreme villain and final boss just because he's the "main one" like if he was the only one who matters
    1. The main characters having to be nerfed to make the story continue by force (like what they did to Shadow or Whisper)

    This annual has a lot to digest. I do like seeing surge's and kit's dynamic. About them trying to be their own heroes and I do like Kit's dialogue hinting that he could be the big bad feeling. I like Knuckles' chapter when he is expressing gratitude with his life and with his friends how the Master Emerald is a part of him and his friends are a part of him also that makes him who he is. And finally my most favorite part is the one with Mimic. We see him expect story about how he became an actor and seeing other people who were so if he is hiding behind a mask and embracing who he is deep down or choosing who he is. And this breaks me to see that he betrayed people who let him in. And Whisper who is so happy upbeat is really adorable and sing the change from what we've seen so far is devastating. And not gonna lie though that chapter is a little bit chilling since he almost caught Whisper lacking. And it's really interesting to see inside of his psychology of what is going on around him and how he feels about things. He's choosing to embrace the mask and choosing to become selfish and arrogant. And I feel like this is really deep with a character who is a villain. I still hate him for how he literally led his friends to their own demise and how he literally traumatized Whisper. It's less about him trying to embrace who he is and choosing to be selfish and arrogant When he could have chose not to be. He had a choice but he is covering up his excuses by being cold and blaming everyone else and even trying to shift blame to the reader itself asking us "who are we?" I think he could probably be some type of sociopath in my opinion. The annual is very cool and Mimic still sucks as a person. Whisper deserves all the love and respect.

    So what we’ve learned
    -mimic may have had feelings but is still a huge piece of garbage who needs to be taken out (he’s also a failed theater kid which is hilarious)
    -whisper was more like tangle being bubbly and excitable before her team died and she was the one that brought mimic into the fold which explains more of her guilt
    -Surge and Kit are becoming ‘heroes’ for purely self serving reasons, surge for the recognition and Kit is finally becoming the murderous sociopath we all knew he was to keep surge reliant on him and they still both want the bros dead, so definitely no actual redemption anytime soon, they’re definitely becoming the tools Starline made them to be
    -team sonic is still a very wholesome found family (especially in contrast to the glitch siblings) and it’s nice to see a softer side of Knux and hearing his thoughts
    -Bubsy is canon
    -something happened in issue 75 and Sonic saved the day as usual (IDW Scheduling issues strike again!)

Remember, Scourge was a child viewing all this; this sort of father-son dynamic alone can cause all sorts of hate, resentment and drama, as clearly still seen when Scourge got older. Of course, it's not an excuse for what Scourge did to Jules, however, as should be known, even the very morality of his world was literally inverse to Prime Sonic's world from the start.

      Right. I don't know how they can settle all the storyline, it's amazing.

    This annul actually sucks. The covers are just clickbait and no one cares about Mimic

      @awesomepixel447 That one had shorter stories, so they had more room to add more, and it was during the virus and covered what happened with certain characters like Jewel and the Chaotix. This one had longer ones and finally gave us the Knuckles content we've been waiting for, even if it was short.
