      speaking of the babylon rouge's, I bet Jet's gonna feel a bit empty now that sonic's been disqualified, because what's a racer without his rival, his competition, and what would be the point of his victory?
      I reckon by the time the fact that the boards got sabotaged gets exposed, but less likely along with whoever sabotaged it, it might not be enough to get them back into the race as it would've gone too far by that point and it would invalidate the whole thing. I suppose a work around would be if some of the racers forfeited and gave their places to team sonic, in other words, substitution

    It’s interesting to me that they decided to reveal who the Phantom Rider was right of the bat. I mean I know most people found out who it was immediately, but for all we know they could have added a whole new character. Maybe an has some kind of control over the suit, mind control or otherwise and that will be the turning point.
    BTW: Surge does look great with her hair down and kit looks great in his fort.

  • @Benicthehedgehog

    I think Eggman wants to know who the leader of clean sweep is, so he can most likely carpet bomb them or capture them to work for him instead to have unlimited supply of his tech & out of reach from others. That and teach them a lesson for making that joke on him.
    Now what is His cost in it? Helping Team Sonic find out who is behind it & put a stop to it before they can even be a threat to both Sonic & Eggman like how Dr.Starline was. Last thing Eggman needs is another villain trying to take over the world instead of him, and Klutch did seem at first interested in doing so with enough resources.

    one thing i think the writers are cooking is that they're gonna make parallels with Lanolin and Dr Starline both were inspired by two respective people they looked up to(Starline with Eggman, Lanolin with Sonic) and leads to them joining their team but grows frustrated and tired at how their heroes usual methods of fighting both sides and attempts to "fix" how it should be done but this leads to both of them falling into the same cycle as the people they looked up so much and Starline serve as a cautionary tale for Lanolin if she continued to disregard her friends and went on a path
    another thing that i don't see many people discussing or mentioning either on CZcams or Tumblr is that Adam Bryce Thomas(Lanolin's creator) implied on his twt that Lanolin's strict no nonsense and jerkish attitude came from her controlling and overbearing mother which might not be 100% canon but it does make me sympathize with her

      And like a normal referee told them to leave the racetrack before they or anyone else got hurt.
      If you want to complain, complain to Jewel. She is the leader of Restoration, she not only let Mimic fool her, but let Surge and Kit join Restoration.

    A good issue, makes up for the the loafing around and artificial drama of the previous stories. While its the likely course Clutch and Clean Sweep will be found out to be the bad guys by everyone, they could take it in a unexpected direction and he actually does win and control restoration HQ, making it something else completely. Restoration is never mentioned in Frontiers, so maybe this is their way of writing the Restoration out for future arcs.

    @mileshk8083 Před měsícem +4

    Wow, and here I thought the Diamond Cutters were going to participate in the race, but they're judges instead - at least, I wanted Tangle to be a fellow competitor. Lanolin is giving me some strange vibes of not giving a damn about anything and it's rubbing a bit on Whisper too - this can be the start of the end of her relationship with Tangle. Tangle noticed something was wrong, but she couldn't do anything because the team might still see her as a rookie and she didn't want to cause trouble herself, so she was forced to agree with the group.
    Surge did not like Clutch's plan, and I kind of respect that - she and Kit should've given a chance to prove their skills in a fair race against Sonic and Tails; and maybe she could've gotten the chance to see more of the dynamic between Sonic and Jet as rivals. As for Eggman, I want to know where did he got that outfit; and him helping the heroes is not so far-fetch considering his previous records in the games after the Classic Era.
    So far, I was able to identify the following EX-Gears for each main racer (correct me if I made a mistake in someone):
    - Sonic: a modified Riders Blue Star I
    - Tails: a modified Riders Yellow Tail
    - Amy: Riders Pink Rose
    - Jet: Riders Type-J
    - Wave: Riders Type-W
    - Storm: Riders Type-S
    - Tangle: Riders Grinder
    - Whisper: Zero Gravity Angel-Devil
    - Lanolin: Riders Heavy Bike
    - Mimic: Zero Gravity Omnitempus (fitting, considering his previous EX-Gear in the Tangle & Whisper mini-series)
    - Surge: Riders Hang-On, with different color
    - Kitsunami: Riders Cover-F
    Did anyone find other EX-Gears during the race? I saw Tails mentioning the yatch EX-Gear model from Zero Gravity and the Accelovice company from Free Riders.
    So, the so called Phantom Rider is just a persona created by Sonic - this is giving me more ideas for a possible new Riders game. Imagine a Time Attack mode where you can race against the Phantom Rider, and completing his race times would unlock him as a playable character. And this is just part 1 of the arc, I can't wait to see more ideas that can come up from this arc that could be implemented in a new Riders game.
    Wait a second, I'm starting to remember something presented in the mini-series Imposter Syndrome, along with your review of issue 67: Clutch is basically doing Starline's "Operation: Remaster" - by replacing the heroes and the Restoration's operations through Clean Sweep Inc. public image, Clutch will be able to change society's view on the Restoration, while keeping his villainous side hidden, gaining access to its many resources through the hostile takeover.

      I suppose Lanolin's influence IS rubbing off a bit on Whisper, given that Whisper didn't actually speak up (in fact she had no speaking lines at all in that issue) I guess the events of issue 64 in which she was "proven wrong" took a toll on her. fortunately, not completely, since she had the common sense to be weary of Surge and wasn't fooled. still, surely Whisper could speak up to Lanolin at one point

I especially love that Tangle decided to choice of Ex-Gear were the hover-shoes instead of the standard board. I think it fits her style I wonder if she was inspired by Shadow’s shoes. Look at them and said “Yeah I like that. Imma need that my brothernem.” Also Lanolin looks is rocking that bodysuit/catsuit/jumpsuit…whatever the right term is. Almost wish that was her default outfit. It kind of remind me of Rouge’s suit in Heroes, anyone get the same vibes?
    Speaking Lanolin, I am just going to say this. Y’all really need to calm down on this Sheep hate. Fr some of y’all are gassing this for no reason. The girl is just doing her job. She’s a referee and that what they do. It’s no big deal. Sure I can understand the issue with Silver giving her a bad look. But that’s just how imposter storylines goes. That’s 101 for that type of story. Mind you Mimic and Clutch are playing EVERYONE. Got everyone fooled including Jewel and Tangle. So I don’t get why y’all are cheering for Lanolin downfall. If anything you should be cheering for Clutch and Mimic downfall. I’m just saying.

    I like the sense of fun for most of this issue, giving the Sonic Riders thrill. However, I began to think that Lanolin’s coldness and bossiness to everybody has gotten too far and has got to stop. I’m a bit concerned that Lanolin’s attitude will spiral out of control and hope that she’ll learn to tone it down and become a better leader and ally. Once this fiasco clears up, I hope that the New Diamond Cutters will be able to recover with the leader having character development.

    I know this is semantics but aren't the Babylon Rogues know thieve's? why would they be invited to a big event and not just arrested on site? I understand fans like them but writer decisions like this really take me out of the world building.
    Also a Sonic Eggman team up?
    Yes we the reader understand that Clutch is working behind the scenes to dismantle the restoration which would in turn hurt the world. But Sonic and his team don't have enough information to put that together, they just know somethings up.
    When they know the world is at stake sure team up with Eggman I can understand that. But teaming up just because Sonic was wrongfully disqualified? is kinda irresponsible. They should attempt to arrest Eggman on site.

    We’re finally back and things are getting interesting already with this Second Official Arc of this New Saga, the Question is though will this Arc be the Main Event for the Saga or will that be later down the line, I kind of hope for the later.
    Anyway, I will look forward to see how this Arc turns out and what it will mean for the Saga,
    As for the X-Factors, yeah i agree with what you said about Surge and Kit, heck i didn’t really need this Issue to think that their inclusion might end up being a mistake on Clutch’s Part, since when considering what they both have been through, saying that i didn’t really buy Surge just trusting Clutch would be a understatement,
    By the way, I have been curious about Surge in particular ever since Issue #67, so will have my eyes focused on her especially throughout this Saga.

  • @AngryAnimeFan2

    my thougths, hich are long by the way.
    are that clean sweep are still underestimating Team Sonic. And I am not just saying that cause good guys win all the time in this universe, and the fact that they MUST WIN ALWAYS! Its breathing, it would be criminal if they dont!!
    (cough)
    no I am saying that cause Sonic is still a chaotic force. and I mean that in a good way. Chaotic Good. Taht is not to say he is unpredictble, he is reckless and many times just goes with the flow.
    but
    becauase he has that attitude he seemingly always adapt anyway. Its not that he does everything he can just so he can win, its more that goes with teh flow and finds the solution. In this case becoming the Phantom Rider is just that. Its a double edge sword that is just so much Sonic. After all, if his identity were to get out, that would make Sonic look bad in the Good Image, yet at the same time people with a good mind would realize Sonic does nothing For The Lutz, he does things his way.
    And that is also another reason why Lanolin is flawed. She is trying to be Order. Note here that I am not demanding she will be chaotic and everything will be better that way. But becuase she is so orderly she acts like there are no solutions to anything else then that. And that makes her easy to manipualte, just as Clean Sweep are doing. What she needs is to realise and see that while Sonic and Team will always be reckless, they are never one for distrubting Order. And once that is made clear, Clean Sweep will lose thier focus.
    Thier buisness deal made be needed for a greater good yes. But, Jewel and the rest must never forget why they got created not why they are here.
    For even if Sonic is Chaotic Good, Egmman will always be Chaotic Evil. And if that Evil always exist, then a buisness will never clear things up.

    • @videogollumer
      @videogollumer Před měsícem +1

      Eh, Eggman's more so Neutral Evil with Chaotic Evil tendencies; though, that arguably makes him more dangerous.
      Lanolin's problem is that she's Lawful Stupid, meaning she follows a code of ethics even to her own detriment. Starline was also Lawful Stupid; but he was the Lawful Evil variety, while Lanolin is the Lawful Neutral variety.
