StH#91 - What the Potto thinks
Posted by Ian the Potto on November 28, 2000

Okay, I'll be brief. Oh yes, there's potential spoilers in here, so beware. 

Anyhoo, the Sonic story was lovely. Sally's line about Elias not being bred to lead I
found interesting. However, this potentially flawless story got dragged kicking and
screaming into the pits of evil by that monster, Ron Lim. I have no use for the man.
He drew Rotor wrong. Not off-model folks, just plain wrong. Some of you may know
I run a fan-comic, and I contend that my little fan-run thing would be on par by
writting, and superior in art. That's sad, people. When a senior in HS can head a
project that looks better than the professionals. I'm sure this Ron fellow is very nice
and all, but as an artist, I don't know why he was even considered.

The Knux story was just plain glorious. How Nack managed to get out of the Devil's
Gulag, and how Nic found him are kinda up in the air, but I loved it entirely. Farewell
to Mr. Butler. He will be SORELY missed. Oh, and Ron Lim is the devil.

SYOTFS,

Didn't Nack escape in Sonic #70? I don't think he was recaptured.

Yeah, I figured he escaped like Kodos and Arachnis. I can assume that Drago and
those monkey and frog guys from the Fearsome Foursome were captured. It looked
like some one was flying next to Sonic's Biplane, we can assume that was probably
Predator Hawk.

Were Lightning Lynx and Sleuth Doggy Dogg recaptured? I didn't see them with the
others in the end of Sonic # 70.

I wish Drago would be the Ultimate Villian since whoever he/she will be I heard they
will forgive him/her.

Could it also be Slueth? I know Drago was a good guy But was Sleuth ever good? I
wonder.Seems like he was in the past issues.

Yes, he was a good guy. Sleuth used to be one of the Mobians who would dress up
as Swat-bots infiltrating Robotropolis. In Sonic #42, he betrayed Sally and the
Freedom Fighters. I liked that story a lot. Knuckles being in it had plenty to do with
it. ^^

Haven't seen it. I liked the last Ron Lim art I saw. It's not Galan art, but I liked it okay.
I think he's better than James Fry, at least he fits the comic better. What does his
Rotor look like?

I`ve just read the issue in question

The problem with him is that all the characters are of.I think he rushed through
it.Either that or he can`t draw furries that well.The characters often have poor
anatomy or way too big heads.Everyone looks creepy in certain panels.He`s not a
bad artist.I just see lots of mistakes.Maybe he is better suited as an inker? Certain
characters and certain panels and all the backgrounds are ok.I will guess he rushed
it because he wanted to move on to his next art project.As if he felt the pay/prestige
of this work was not worth the effort to do a good and consistent job :P 
Now Butler on the other hand...YEAH!!! His art kicks MAJOR heiney as always! Nic is
sooooo sexxy >;)
