In an unofficial Hong Kong SF Comic, I’ve seen Mike Bison bite a guy’s ear off right after Mike Tyson bit Holyfield! Ha! Ha!
Time to talk about issue 2 guys! Everyone buy it today like I did so we can start!
Well, Balrog was an established character long before Tyson began his mastication spree. However, could there have been a way in which Tyson was influenced by Balrog? Could Tyson have been playing SF2 one day and thought that biting an ear would rule? Hmmm…:bluu:
Woohoo just got issue 2 this morning. The date/shipping thread really helps. Well anyways I got the cover that J Scott did and I can tell he never played street fighter cause the cover was well drawn but the looks were wack. I wish my comic store had a diff cover.
Vega is so badass and well drawn in this issue.
GODDAMNIT!!! IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!!
Just kidding [/Xianghua]
Now that I’ve had my fun…
First off, great choice on the cover, for both you and me. I picked up the “After Akiman” cover. A perfect homage to a classic image. Dude, if you could get the classic Street Fighter II logo, put that on the image and make a poster out of that, I’d buy it. I’d also buy a poster of the “Every Street Fighter character in existence minus SF1 & the EX series” cover for issue #1. And then the cover for issue 3… Too Good!
And this month’s issue is leaps and bounds above the previous. This issue was so good, I could hear the character’s voices. Well, the dubbed voices from the anime, except Scott McNeil was voicing Ken because I’ve been on a Gundam Wing kick lately…
Cammy: “Agent Killer Bee”. Nice Touch.
Vega: Regarding his relationship with Cammy, Tiamat explained it perfectly. Seriously dude, with all the work you’ve done on the SF storyline, someone owes you a job. I think it’s Capcom. Anyway, nice fight vs. Honda.
Honda: The fat man makes his debut. pulls off his 3 signature moves and gets pwned. Still, a good showing. At least he fared better than Dan vs. Vega…
Ryu: Forget everything you’ve heard about Ryu has no personality. This man has the best dream sequences ever.
Kei: That’s right, not Sakura, but Kei. Kei’s design seems a little off. She seems to have a little too much “life” in her; she seems more expressive. Then again, the most we’ve seen of Kei is in MSH v. SF.
Oh and one more thing, Adam Warren must be drawn and quartered. That side issue was the worst drawn ever. According to Adam, Chun Li and Cammy have no noses and gigantic eyes and mouths. Although, I do like the use of a “Dourai” (Chun Li’s father in SF2V) looking figure for Chun Li’s father. Nice.
All in all, though, a triumph of an issue! 
GODDAMNIT!!! IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!!
Bah. Whatever. Honda just needed to force Vega into a corner somewhere, tick Butt Slam ggpo. Honda wins 7 games to 3.
Thank you! Thank you! I couldn’t believe no one has mentioned it till now, but yeah Adam Warren’s drawings were horrible. Ever since seeing the sneak preview of the work 2 weeks ago I couldn’t help but feel like Chun Li and Cammy were monkeys. Ah well.

BTW, are we gonna be talking about issue 2 here or here:
Will be talking about issue 2 everywhere!
Things I noticed - (I said some of this on another Thread)
Just like the SFZ Anime, Sakura wants to enter a Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Unlike said Anime, Ken doesn’t bring flowers for Gouken’s Grave but a Dragon Punch.
Ryu doesn’t sleep on a bed for nothing! Seeing him sleep without a shirt reminded me of the SFZ Anime too.
Gouki didn’t have his Beads when he fought Gouken. I’ve seen Mangas from Japan and Hong Kong indicate he got them from Gotetsu when he killed him, and some indicate he got the Beads from Gouken when he killed him. Most likely he’s gonna take the Beads from Gouken’s Grave.
Chun-Li’s Bracelet necklace.
Much like SF2V, all evidence points to Chun-Li being from Hong Kong and not Mainland China. Also, she calls her dad Pa Pa just like SF2V. In SF2 CD Dramas, she called him the Japanese name for dad.
The US Martial Arts Tournament was mentioned and The Dolls were mentioned.
I wonder if they will have Balrog(Ninja) and Ken fight over Eliza like every Hong Kong SF Comic has done. This rivalry even showed up in SF2V with Chun-Li playing the role of the girl.
I still wonder if Eliza noticed in issue 1 when she said “…” that Guile was her brother in-law.
And I still wonder how Sakura will decide to wear a white headband. Maybe she’ll get curious and see one of Ryu’s old fights on Video?
Lastly, on the last page of the main story, notice a Billboard with Ultraman. NOW THAT’S GANGSTA!
The Hot Dog Contest thing is our kudos to the SFZ Anime, and also our little fun twist that would fit in that she is a big E-Honda fan in her beginning search of the greatest warrior in Japan.
Glad you noticed that Ryu did not sleep on that soft and comfy bed at Ken’s house!
Since HK is part of China now, so it all fits in. And since I am chinese, we all call our dad “Pa Pa”. Obviousely, we will not be speaking Japanese in HK all the time.
And glad that you noticed the “…” on Eliza to Guile. 
And that Ultraman image is a Cover we did for the Ultraman series that is on shelf right now publised by DarkHorse. It’s done by the SF team - Alvin Lee & Arnold Tsang. hee hee. Go pick it up! Its a pretty cool adaptation of the HK comic with new covers by various UDON artists!
Oh, I thought “Pa Pa” was just an SF2V thing. Thanks! Knowledge is good!
I thought it was Ba Ba.
yeah, technically, it is said as Ba Ba. But for US dialogue and less cheesy, we decide to put Pa Pa…
Ah. Ok… Heh heh.
Anyone got Newtype with Cammy vs. Deejay yet? Very cool, and I like that scientist working for shadowloo! The US Comic’s version of Dr. Seno! Course, I’m sure his name won’t be Dr. Seno like the SF2 Anime, but WOOHA!!!
CAMMY!!! streetfighter 2 was much better than the first one!!! i like the name killer bee being attached to cammy i feared you guys would forget it but you guys keep on surprising me. i have a couple of questions will cammy star in her own streetfighter comic ever? cause her battle to leave shadaloo has to be the best one i’ve ever seen and i think it shouldnt be cheapend in a 4 page backup story. adam warren gave a fellow cammy lover some pictures of the battle with cammy winning!!!
I think ken is gonna karate chop vega in the neck next issue. Also A groove Sakura will probably run into n goove Ryu.
whoa those pics are 
how did you get those?
Cammy getting her own series, I’d definitely buy that. I wonder if there’s anything in the works for individual characters to get their own series (limited or monthyl)?
Pesonally, I think the following characters/story arcs should get their own miniseries/comic
Final Fight
The U.S. Martial Arts Championship (Ken, Charlie & Allen Snider!)
Dan Hibiki (Come on, the wacky adventures of Dan, Blanka & Sakura!!! non-canon and purely for fun.)
Alex
Ryu (pre-issue #0)
Balrog (how he came up from the ghetto and eventually fell into Shadaloo)
Gen (the man has lived for like 70+ years, there’s got to be a sotry in there somewhere…)
I’m all for an Alex mini. He should have been the main character for SF3 - not Ryu again :mad:.
Alex IS the main character of SF3, just like Guile was the main for SF2. It’s just that no one, save a few, give a crap… unfortunately…
