Commentary for October 23, 2019: So, now that Sonic and friends know that Blaze is one of the good guys, they’ll be off to rescue her from Doctor Eggman. But that’s not going to be until season 2, which will begin in 2020. I know I usually save the comparison between a chapter of Eon’s World Vol. 1 and the original version from Eon’s Comic until the final page, but I’ve not done that this time, which leaves me very little to talk about here, since I’ve talked about the differences between this chapter and the original version from Eon’s Comic #46 through #50 as we’ve gone through this chapter. Maybe that’s a better way of doing it than posting a massive wall of text at the end of each chapter? Still, I will talk about one important thing. In the original version, Shadow couldn’t be reasoned with and had to be tricked into basically killing himself by accident. I’ve already covered in great detail why I’ve changed that for this remake, but there is another reason for it. I found a convoluted reason to bring Shadow back to life less than a year later and nowadays, with very few exceptions, I don’t like fake outs with character deaths. If a character being absent and presumed dead for a while can be used to tell an interesting story, that’s one thing. But otherwise, I’m not going to do that. Most of the time in Eon’s World, if a character appears to have been killed, they are dead and never coming back (except possibly in flashbacks). So that’s why I had Sonic find another resolution to the Shadow situation; so, when he does return, there’ll be no fake surprise that he’s back. And, yes, of course he’s coming back. The Sonic stuff in Eon’s World shall still adhere fairly closely to how it is (or was) in the games for a while yet, and, for better or worse, Shadow is a major character in Sonic fiction. Anyway, that is it for Eon’s World Vol. 1 for now. This has been the first season finale, but don’t worry! Come back next Wednesday, October 30, when Eon’s World Vol. 2, Chapter 10, ‘Distant Thunder’ will begin, and we’ll pick up the Discovery Saga from where Chapter 8 left off. Vol. 1 will, of course, continue in 2020, but I don’t have a precise date for that just yet. In any case, intend to have Chapters 10 and 11 of Vol. 2 done before then. Credits: Blaze sprites originally by Kaijin. |
