Last time you got Mr. Fancy-Pants Hobo Sir (a.k.a. ) serving up an OFAY-style commentary--this week you get a fresh helping of "CJ'S NOTES" to go with your meat and taters! (somewhat odd, considering I actually didn't DO anything on this comic, or the crossover as a whole, but oh well)

Part 2 of this ungodly crossover shows exactly WHERE the accidental portal created by Dr. Mi's jury-rigged hairgun leads to--predictably enough, the portal opens up in the "SC dimension", signified by the fact that the comic's template, which was OFAY-styled in the first part, is now SC-style, with text and coloring to match.

Contrary to (un)popular belief, Tails isn't actually playing a DS in the first two panels--it's really a custom-built notebook computer.

David cites this comic as yet another stage in the constant flux of his speech bubbles--note the "tail" at the end of the SC-speech bubbles and new SFX font in Panels 2 and 7.

Notice how Shadow doesn't even bother to look up from his paper--no doubt he's still slightly more bitter/jaded than usual from the whole "Sonikirby" affair a few issues ago (in SC), or (more likely) he just doesn't care. (David wanted to give Shadow a monocle for reading the paper in the first few panels, but forgot.)

Also, the authors developed a way to tell the dialogue of the two characters apart--that is, using the traditional speech bubbles found in each comic. SC-characters get colored-in speech, while OFAY-characters get black-and-white speech.

David has gone on record to state that Panel 3 is one of the hardest scenes he's had to do on ANY comic thus far.

The rest of the comic goes on to focus on the two Sonics, and the differences between the two are actually somewhat significant. Both are somewhat haughty and like running for little to no reason whatsoever--but OFAY Sonic shows some signs of intelligence, while SC Sonic...manages to run facefirst into a stone wall the moment he turns his head.

The two authors have said that the next few issues of the crossover might follow this theme--each focusing on the two versions of one or two specific characters--but nothing has been finalized yet.

NEXT TIME ON SC (vs. OFAY): ...erm...nobody kind of told me yet.
