Let's just say the Knuckles comics were to return. What should they have, and what should Archie do to prevent sales from dropping again?
*What the comics should have*
1) They must start with Knuckles # 33.
2)They have to have what Ken Penders origionally planned for each issue. So, Knuckles # 33-# 35 should have the Sonic Adventure adaptian, etc.
3)In the Knuckles-Grams, they should at least tell the readers that these issues have all the stories that Ken Penders origionally planned for the Knuckles comics.
*What Archie should do for the Knuckles series*
1)They must make sure that wherever the Sonic comics are sold, so should the Knuckles comics.
2)For the title, it should have "Sonic the Hedgehog presents:Knuckles the Echidna". This is what they had for Knuckles # 29-32. Many people are more familiar with Sonic, than Knuckles. When they see "Sonic the Hedgehog presents", they'll know it's a spin-off series of the Sonic comics.
3)Advertise! This is what they did quite well for the Sonic Super Specials and mini-series. Back when the Sonic Super specials were still alive, Archie advertised them in every one of their other Archie comics. You could order them as well. They should adverise each issue this way.
But,this is if the Knuckles series return...
