Bells clanged into the air when it was revealed that people remember and still use Sonic HQ’s archives without any of our prompting! Even still is that it was caught in the seedly underbelly of the internet (but not really) comics and cartoons board a certain unnamed but well known site. Unfortunately, we here at […]
