Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
As always, something I love about the IDW franchise is that while it adds new characters, it never forgets the old ones. Here, Amy and Knuckles get an adventure on Angel Island. That’s new! Amy and Knuckles don’t interact much one-on-one, and I loved them just exploring the island together.
And…
“I trust you [Amy] and about five others, max” – Knuckles
Look at that growth! Knuckles has friends that he trusts!
Please keep the Sonic comics (and franchise, really) in the hands of the IDW writers. They know how to make Sonic goofy without being obnoxious, and how to tease cute moments without dipping into shipping wars.
One-star deduction for the miscommunication trope. It is no fun to read a character be gaslit though I’m happy Whisper knew what was up. Realistically, it makes sense why no one believed him, but it’s so unsatisfying from a reader’s perspective.
