Ian Flynn... SUPPORTS Sonamy??

EDIT: Just wanted to say that the idea that it's by SEGA mandate for now is actually the only thing keep Sonamy apart? That's actually rather funny. It proves that it CAN certainly happen in the comic: especially as the mandate ACTUALLY says that SONIC HIMSELF can't be tied down.
And yet he's with Sally at the moment?
Technically, Ian COULD make Sonamy a real couple if he wanted it XD He is simply catering to the old-time fans at the moment. [But you never know in the future_>
he did THIS didn't he?
Sonamy
Heh. This is to all the Sonally fanbrats who love saying
"Sonic hates Amy BAW!!!" or "Sonic don't like Amy SHE BOTHERS HIM AND NEED TO DIEEE!!!!!111"
You've just been served.
Sonic has never shown that he indeed hates Amy. He shows reluctance or hesitation becasue as all guys would feel in the situation, he knows of Amy's crush but doesn't feel quite that way about her.
But she is STILL a friend to him.
Do you guys really think that if Sonic hated Amy so much he would actually agree to go on a date with her?
Especially if her were so down about Sally going with Khan?
Nope.
Any normal person would have been in no mood to spend time with someone they didn't like.
Conclusion: Sonic doesn't hate her.
As a matter of fact, even in this picture he isn't even slightly bothered.
He is actually SMILING at her and they have their arms entwined.
He may not LOVE her, but he DOES seem at ease and happy to be in her company.
People need to really stop letting their hate or bias get in the way of t

I went on SEGA forums today and got a real SHOCK.
Ian Flynn, the writer of Archie (As everyone knows) was quoted there from his Bumbleking Forums by another member saying this:

Really? How about telling me how SonAmy works? I've seen you explain in detail how SonSal works, so if you claim SonAmy can work, I would like to hear your reasoning behind it.
Alright, that can be addressed.

SonAmy
Why It Works - They're kindred spirits; adventurers with a strong moral center, extremely powerful abilities, and an impish independence to make them unstoppable. The two of them together would be poetry in motion, playing off each others' abilities. But it wouldn't be "hero in stereo." Amy is a compassionate, thoughtful person (when not distracted by Sonic-thoughts), and her adoration of him doesn't overrule her priorities...all the time. She would be able to focus him, and their banter as he would tease her would be fun and endearing. They're a lively young couple that kick butt.

Why It Doesn't - There is absolutely nowhere to go with them. By SEGA mandate, we can never have Sonic show any serious interest in her. It's not the same as the perpetual dating Sonic has with Sally, because Amy can't get even that far. My hands are tied.

SonSal
Why It Works - It's the old "opposites attract" formula. Sonic is brash and powerful. Sally is tactful and (comparatively) weaker. She adds a controlling element to his chaotic nature, and the difficulties of that set-up create a charming chemistry between the two of them. It started out rough, where their conflict had them at odds with each other, but it became part of their relationship when their respect and love for each other took hold. It's a yin-yang dynamic.

Why It Doesn't Work - For one thing, it's tired. The on-agin, off-again nature of their relationship has yo-yo'd since the first issue. And while Sally is a nice complimentary element to Sonic, compared to Amy, she slows him down and complicates him.

There, I believe I've sufficiently ticked everyone off (haha).</sub>

Here's the SEGA Forum Link: forums.sega.com/showthread.php…

I am going to find the original Bumbleking link so I can directly link, but DUUUDES that is FUNNY D

Even IAN actually has said official by "Word of God" EXACTLY what I've been saying D
HAHA! How's that for a nice verdict. :3

I knew I wasn't just bullshitting and all this was the product of drugs or something!
Even the writer actually says that not only can Sonamy work out, but he  even verifies that while Sonally RELIES on Opposites attack, it actually slows down the character!
HA!
