Here’s a complete rundown from Mr. Penders on a variety of topics:

Hi there. It’s been awhile, I know, but one has to do what one has to do, and it’s kept me from interacting with a lot of you as much as I would like. Therefore, since I have only a few minutes, allow me to get everyone caught up to date on a variety of topics…

COMIC SHOP NEWS – The person I ordered the issues printing the Sonic story didn’t receive the last installment, which came out this week, so at the moment, I’m currently working to resolve this problem. I hope to have the issues in hand within the next few days so I can send them to everyone who ordered the story before I leave for San Diego. If not, everyone will have to be patient until I get back.

SONIC SUPER SPECIAL #11 – I’ve been working day and night to wrap up this book, especially since it’s release date has been pushed up a week. Again, as much as I hope to have a sneak preview online before San Diego, chances are it’ll be soon after.

THE LOST ONES #1 – Orders are currently being solicited in the August issue of Diamond Previews. Check out the ad on page 201. (By the way, I did NOT list myself as Sonic’s creator, but rather referred to myself as a writer and artist on the series. Guess my way was too wordy.)

Fan-fics – will now be discontinued from this board. After much consideration, I really can’t allow stories featuring characters that belong to someone else be posted here. I will be deleting every fan-fic posting later this weekend, and serve notice that anyone posting stories of anyone else’s characters (not just Sonic) will be deleted just as swiftly. The ONLY fan-fic I will allow are those based on characters I own and create. This means even characters like Julie-Su and Geoffrey St. John are off-limits, as Sega now owns the characters, even though I created them.

The part about the fanfics is really interesting, as Penders said that Sega owns some characters that he made. We’ll see what happens.
