As Sally and Ken try to convince the Yagyu to leave the Iron Queen’s services, Sonic and Tails run into an old “friend”, Fiona Fox, and her pals in the Destructix. While the royals aren’t successful in getting the bat ninjas to their side, they do convince the lord to pull away from the Dark Egg Legion, but Sonic and Tails are taken down by the Destructix, and Fiona has something she wants to discuss.

What they got right: A unique solution, showing that every clan won’t be pulled out the same way. That’s a plus.

What they got wrong: A one-page explanation of who the Destructix are might have been nice, but I’m guessing Sally will tell Ken about them next issue. I just didn’t have anything to put here that I didn’t already in last week’s review of the main comic about time placement between the two stories.

Recommendation: Worth checking out. I’d say more, but I’m typing this up when I’m really tired. Probably a bad move.

"Actually, I was asking if you knew what time it was."
