just so it shows up in the notes: this is an extremely good thing, which is why you will see the internet/cell companies revolt against it– it will prevent them from selling your data to spamcall companies and selectively throttling their competitor’s sites, among other things.
also remember that the internet has basically replaced phone service entirely now, with most phones now simply operating via VOIP. legislating the internet the same way as landlines were is really a no-brainer, it’s the same service in a slightly different form.
Welp, I gave IDW readers a solid day to see it for themselves before I went and spoiled the surprise. But as a dozen messages I’ve received across social media and a blurb on the Sonic wiki indicate, people have caught a certain little cameo in IDW Sonic #33
That cameo is, of course…
…a Sonic-ified version of my fursona, and her little army of Feroxes
Yes, Evan very generously snuck this in as a nod to my Sonic Chronicles playthrough. Folks were wondering in the Twitch chat if it would be possible for the Sonic Chronicles Chao designs to show up again, and sure enough Evan happened to be drawing a Chao-centric arc at the time, so I guess it all just lined up perfectly. (I’ve actually been sitting on this for two whole months because she had to get my blessing to use my fursona before this made it to print.)
Maybe the best part, which I’m not sure anyone has pointed out yet, is that you can also spot me a second time with even more Feroxes in tow
It’s truly incredible that this is my little mark on the Sonic franchise. This will be my legacy. Thanks again to Evan, and also to Reggie Graham for the stellar coloring!
