As I already said, Sega had less experience with writing and story than emphasis they usually place on gameplay, hardware/software and sales. Thats not SEGA's job. Thats why they gave it to Archie.

Out of curiosity after reviewing the mandates, I wonder if SEGA even actually bothered to check what was going on in the comics back in the day when Bollers was taking the wheel with his "everyone wants to hump Sonic" thing. Where the license people went over to Archie and said "Ah, screw it, you guys know what you're doin, your ontract is renewed for the next 10 years, have fun! We aint got time for this" and things happened. The way they reacted to relationship when they found out from what Penders and Bollers did probably triggered them to some extent. Wont be seeing and relationships any time soon besides friends (Friendzone lvl 9001<).

Probably for the best I guess. If Archie even manages to breach a rule, Ken Penders wont be the one ordering the petrol to be poured, it will be SEGA, and Archie is the one getting burned and the thing Sega is taking away from them is the license.

R.i.P in Peace
