Thanks to everyone who’s waited patiently for this one! It’s super late and I want to get some sleep but yes, this happened and at the time the local police were in all sorts of trouble for being a bunch of corrupt cowboys so they decided to let us go, especially since they were having a go at one of the junior officers for discharging his weapon when he shouldn’t have.
Anyway, good times! God damn I love Street Fighter, and Turbo was amazing, and I still have a callus on my hand from playing it every damn day for ages.
Oh the MegaDrive version was OK I guess but c’mon seriously people the SNES version of Street Fighter 2 Turbo was where it’s at and you know it, it’s OK now to admit it guys.
(By the way, if you’re curious about what happened the day I bought Street Fighter 2: World Warrior for Super Nintendo, you can read the comic about that crazy day here!)
What’s the Super SF2 comic going to be? Personal story of yourself or general joke?
Personal story…I really need to get moving on it 🙂
Hm. I don’t know if that’s such a good idea. It was nice the first time. But the other two times (SF2T, Sonic), it had barely anything to do with the games anymore. I don’t want to criticise you, but when one looks for video game comics, one wants comics about video games. Instead, your story is about you playing with water pistols on school ground or having a car accident, with the game reference almost like an afterthought. My honest opinion: Focus on the games and don’t use the comics as your personal stage. (Save that for another comic series. It might be funny in its own right, but not in a comic about a certain game.) Since your Sf2 comic, half of them have been about you. At least put yourself as a character into the game like in your old comics. If you were looking for a Batman parody, would you want something that makes fun of Batman or something that makes fun of a random comic book nerd and his job at McDonalds?

Hi Simon, just wanted to say thanks for making this post and it’s given me a lot to think about. I’ll make a blog post about this topic soon, but in the meantime this coming week’s BTC definitely doesn’t have me in it 🙂
You’re welcome. Please tell me the link to that blog post when you create it.
Here ya go – Putting Myself Out There
Your intro to this comic is faulty: Between SF2 and SF2 Turbo, there was SF2 Champion Edition. Unless they skipped that in your region, you should have been able to play as the bosses there already.
SF2T was not about the bosses and the mirror matches anymore, but about the speed.
The SNES version combined both games (Champion Edition and Turbo) then. That’s why you can choose between normal and turbo there and why in both versions, the fighters have a different alternate color (for example if Bison doesn’t wear red, he has a green uniform in normal and a white uniform in turbo mode).
ahh that takes me back. remember the comment about being from the wrong side of the tracks? it was logan for **** sake! what tracks?
We ripped up the tracks for firewood and common mugging of the elderly. :/
