Description
There are two things I would like to explain. This comic takes place soon after the events that transpired in the Shadow the Hedgehog game. In his dialog, Sonic is alluding to the fact that not that long ago Shadow was switching sides like crazy. Serving the black arms interests one moment and then helping Gun, Sonic, or even Eggman in the next.Secondly, I didn’t forget about Tails. Originally he was on this page but I had to push him onto the next, since the frames got too crowded. I had to rewrite the script a little while I was at it.
Anyway, I’ve never done a fight scene before so this was a challenge. I did take a few pointers from the Sonic Universe Archie comics (Knuckles arc to be exact) but I avoided copying any poses. With Knuckles you can always be sure fists will be flying. Primarily I took note of how they communicated motion. This can be seen primarily in the smear of Sonic’s foot in the first frame. Thanks Archie!

You have to admit Shadow can talk a lot sometimes.

Sonic arms are the wrong colour in the first panel and in panel seven it looks like Shadow was aiming for the wall not Sonic. The kick from Sonic not too bad though. Fight scenes are hard, keep practising and you'll get better.

Oh my goodness your right! I can't believe I colored his arm wrong! I've gotta fix that. I tried to make it look like Sonic moved out of the way really fast, oh well. I think I'll take a break, all of their fighting makes my hand hurt.

POW! I love it when these two are fighting. They've been doing it ever since they met.

So that's who you did the smear frame, thanks be to Archie. It looks great, and they don't look nearly as stiff. I like the new dialog and the shading.

Thanks, fight scenes are definitely difficult. At my level of experience I needed some help.

Lol to Sonic's thoughts on what Shadow's saying! I wonder who'll win the battle here...? Sonic's got in one shot, but of course, the battle's just begun.

Thanks. I'm sure they could fight all day if they wanted to. But I'm not sure the building will stay standing that long.

Lol, that's true! When the arena you're fighting in is falling apart, there's a time limit to battling.
