I think every problem I had as a comic maker could be summed up with just this strip alone. Aside from the obvious visual issues I've already gone over, this comic has literally only one dialogue bubble per panel, when the entire conversation could've been done in two panels. Hell, tack this dumb gag to the end of the last comic ffs.

But the blurb at the bottom is the icing on the crap cake. First of all, an author shouldn't have to have an aside to explain what's going on in the story, especially since none of what's been "explained" has actually been shown to the audience up to this point. "Sonic and Tails are stuck on Yoshi's Island with the Mario characters." Mario characters? We've literally only seen Mario. What other characters are you on about? And I guess we're supposed to surmise that Sonic saying "God, I hate this place" is evidence that he and Tails are stuck on Yoshi's Island? alright yeah fine whatever

And second, the absolute hypocrisy of the statement "I'm not a god, but beating up Sonic is really easy" and the fact that I was too dumb to realize the hypocrisy fkn kills me. And I love how I throw Akuma under the bus, like "Yeah, I'm not one of those kinds of comic makers". Like holy shit dude.
