NotLessOrEqual wrote: April 2013, was the final Archie Issue (StH #247 ) released before the Super-Genesis Wave set in, and the effects from the Ken Penders' lawsuit are put in place, which effectively, and permanently removes all characters belonging to him and those by writers whom are no longer working for the comics (a good 200+ characters).

This year marks the fourth anniversary of their disappearance. Please take a moment to pay your respects.

"And then Penders said "Upon the flash of white light I will go throughout Mobius. Every soul whom is of my creation through pencil and ink will die, from the firstborn son of the King, who sits on the throne, to the girl of whose body consists of both blood and iron, There will be loud wailing throughout Mobius—worse than there has ever been or ever will be again.""

"And then SEGA & Archie Comics went forth and said to the SEGA characters "Take inks of black or white pigments and go forth to paint © on each limb of your body, on each sides of the door frames and windows of your homes. None of you shall go out of the door of your home until Pender's Purge is complete." And when Penders goes through the land to strike down the Mobians, he will see the © on the top and sides of the door & window frames and will pass over that doorway, and will not enter your home and smite you."

"Then Penders said to Ivo Robotnik and Albert Wiley, "Stretch out a hand toward the sky so that a blinding white light will spread over Mobius— a light so bright that it can be felt." So Robotnik and Wiley together stretched out a hand toward the sky, and flash of white covered all of Mobius for 92 days and 92 nights (Issue #249 - #251)."

"And at the flash of blinding light, Penders went forth throughout the lands of Mobius, with each of whom who were not granted immunity, were struck down and annihilated where they stood. For not even a molecule nor atom remained of them upon the surface of the ground on which once casted their shadows. The remaining men, women and children all got up during the night, and there was loud wailing throughout Mobius, for there was not a household or family without someone missing."

Won't lie -- this actually made me chuckle a bit.
