Seems rather pointless though because Sega legally owns the comics. They could just request Archie Comics to reset the universe or just legally give Ken Penders his characters without the need of a ploy with lawsuits and court cases.

Plus, Sega wouldn't want anymore negativity than they already have. The majority of gaming communities on the internet just don't recognise Sega as the big blue titan it once was in the 90s while Nintendo is even bigger red titan than ever. Some of those internet communities think Sega is foolish with how it manages it's franchise and marketing.

Honestly, I do agree with them. I think Sega favours their poster child way more than their other franchises. Nintendo has Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Pokémon and so on, Sega just have Sonic and the occasional sports game or Phantasy Star or so while the other, actually popular franchises they have, have not been touched since the 90s.

I love Sonic, always will and think Sega have some creative franchises... but Sega themselves arn't the sharpest game company of our time.

It's why I hope someday to make games for Sega, whether Sonic games or offer to make games for their other franchises like Alex Kidd, House of the Dead or Columns.
