Description     Here's a redesign for my version of Sally Acorn for my fan comic Sonic Odyssey. I decided to scrap the fingerless gloves since they just weren't doing it for me anymore, and I just simplified the design of her gloves in genera. I also altered the design of her blaster to be simpler in design (plus I felt the previous blaster looked too much like the ones from Star Wars), also I changed up her hair a bit. For my design of Sally since it's said that her Dad's a squirrel and her Mom's a chipmunk I wanted to make her look more like a mix between a squirrel and a chipmunk. I also gave her a blaster to give her something to use in a fight, I figured a blaster could work since she's the more cautious one compared to Sonic so I figured that she'd opt for a long distance weapon. Also her gloves can shoot out a grappling line similar to the Avatar character from Forces. 

    Sally Acorn (age: 15): The Leader of the Freedom Fighters and former Princess of the Kingdom of Acorn before it was overthrown by Robotnik, Sally is a skilled strategist and very clever problem solver. She is one of the most organized, intelligent, and levelheaded members of the Freedom Fighters and will do anything in her power to get her team through whatever situation they get in, but she also tends to get paranoid about the worst outcomes and is very meticulous in her planning and can come off as a bit of a control freak, not to mention prone to extreme stress and anxiety whenever she can't find a reasonable solution when a situation goes out of control (this is where Sonic is usually able to help out). She also doesn't tolerate insubordinates and while she tries to keep cool Sonic is one of the few people who can get under her skin (especially with his reckless attitude) but doesn't really loose her cool easily over trivial things despite Sonic's best efforts (usually only meeting them with an eye roll).

    She's also quite opinionated (with an ego just as big as Sonic's) and a little judgmental having trouble trusting strangers, she puts a lot of pressure on her self (mainly due to both her position as leader of the Freedom Fighters and eventual ruler of the Acorn Kingdom). She was born to the royal Acorn family and was heir to the thrown until Robotnik took over and she was evacuated to the hidden village of Knothole with her caretaker Long Claw (who's also the last of an ancient clan of owls), she has no idea where her parents the King and Queen are and is determined to not only overthrow Robotnik but also to find her parents (and is in no hurry to become queen). When not doing Freedom Fighter stuff she does like to read a lot being a bit of a book worm, she's also really into archaeology. Also though not really willing to admit it (due to her thinking it'd be a bit improper for a person in her position) she can be a little mischievous herself, whenever she teases Sonic and actually finding some of Sonic's pranks kind of funny (particularly when it's towards people she admits needed to be knocked down a peg).

Sonic and related characters are owned by Sega and Sonic Team

That always seemed to be the question on Sally, seemed like a squirrel yet had the stubby tail lol.

Yep and animals with a single eye with two pupils XD


Though I suppose a squirrel/chipmunk hybrid really is what she was.  They made it super clear in the reboot with her father's super fluffy tail lol.

Would have been awesome to see hedgehog/squirrel/chipmunk hybrids for sure XD  Though I suppose just chibi versions of themselves were easier to design lol.

Heh was just taking an easy shot at something XD


Though was a shame Lara-Su went from being their best friend to being their babysitter thanks to crazy time traveling hijinks @_@

Oh?  I was relatively fine with it, was nice seeing Sonic acting like a king as opposed to SEGA's "he can only be free and never tied down" persona.

Time travel tends to go that route.

Really?  I thought it worked pretty well for the most part.


Sonic and Sally tie the knot, have kids and rule a prosperous kingdom in peace.  Knuckles has a family on his end as well as everyone else, though I do suppose some of the pairings they decided on was a bit weird.


Plus it's not like Sonic can be the "way past cool" dude that's a loner and action oriented well into his 50's lol.  At some point he'd have to settle down or he'd just end up being miserable.

Hmm was Elias a thing when they started the future arc stuff?  Though he was sidelined pretty disrespectfully in the comic after a certain point, before even all of the legal issues lol.


Though the Shadow as an evil king thing actually was tied to the time travel stuff previously brought up.  Sonic went into the past to fix space time collapsing, but when he came back he realized he had created an alternate reality where Shadow was the one that married Sally instead and started his dynasty, which meant Sonic's kids never existed.  It's why Lara-Su went from being the same age as them to becoming their babysitter when they were born much later on in the new time line.

Knowing Elias, he probably stepped down and put tyrannical dictators and/or regular citizens in control a few more times before finally throwing in the towel for good and deciding his sister was the better option >.>

The vast majority of that multi year emo fest of the "Mecha sally" arc was some of the worst writing in the comic for sure, with Naugus just being a small part of it.


Sure some other stuff was ridiculous, eye rolling or dumb, but nothing is worse then that arc for me, especially since it brought about rather crappy canon changes.

To be fair, it's pretty easy to top the game based Sonic worlds XD  They don't exactly seem to care much about story or character development... or gameplay or stage design oddly enough @_@;


The reboot had some interesting ideas but I'll always view the pre-reboot as the one true comic incarnation ^^


The IDW one brought some awesome new characters like Tangle though.

I think I remember the writer saying something like he'd focus less on story and more on action, or something like that for the IDW comic.


It's a shame so early into the comic's run they had to pull "Mecha Sally Arc" version 2 though, with the whole metal zombie virus thing.  I mean it was a good idea but as usual the follow through on it was far too long, far too emo and filled with shock value until the near end, where most people were ready to move on to something else already.  Ironically I believe it was actually very close to ending until recent world events put it on hiatus... it's almost like every time this writer tries to write one of his overblown shock value fests something goes wrong in the world lol.

Yep, though seems like there are multiple groups out there trying to keep the Archie comic alive, both pre and post reboot versions.


There's an Archie Online group that's continuing the pe-reboot world going with those plot lines... for better or worse.


I've got my own comic going that's already like 80ish pages in too.  Started as a Sally/Sly Cooper crossover but evolved into continuing the Archie comic storyline moving forward too lol.
