Is there any advice or recommendation for people who want to start writing?<br> <br> Makalosa M.<br> What have been the greatest challenges when writing/creating for the Archie Sonic book? And, what story that you’ve been involved in has been the most fun?<br> <br> CaptainAWF<br> Was there ever planned to be a cure for Cassia's illness and what was going to be the ultimate fate of the deer sisters?<br> <br> TheImagineBreaker121212<br> I've been doing research on sonic and relations to greek and some math, in the games; sonic vs chaos is the hero archetype vs the serpentine creature, archie comics; eggman relates chaos energy that sonic uses as something beyond quantum measures that leaps into chaos theory and in the ixis arc chaos energy is referred as being related to chaotic forces making up everything (chaos from greek basically) essentially being the embodiment of chaos is some grand order, was there some plan on using sonic for a major event?<br> <br> Digamma<br> Ey Aleah! I could be completely misremembering the premise behind this question but: I can vaguely remember Ian once complaining on the bumbleking forms about how sometimes the rare instances of Archie that weren't written by him would often still have him listed as writer on solicits, and I have an even fuzzier, unsure if it's legit or misremembered memory of something else of you following that up with mentioning that there's a few off panels miscredited to you (since you wrote a bulk of the reboot-era off panels) and that def has me interested. I think the only off panels credited to you that make me go "hmm maybe someone else wrote them" are the off-panels for 261-262 (so the middle of Waves of Change); Off Panels were done in batches of 4, with the same art team and writer within a batch (with the the main book batches and the Universe batches often but not always with the same teams)....
