I guess you may have heard but the forums are going the way of the dinosaur oooh…
So yeah if anyone wants to stay in touch I’m Anthony Collado on Facebook (there are a few Anthony Collados, look for a guy with his face in a burrito) and Sano_From_SRK on Twitter. My Email is sano75_1@hotmail.com.
My my, Old Chicago Pizza close to me closes, Krispy (???) Kreme close to me closes, no more tried and true triple chocolate bundt cake from my local wholesale bakery, now this…
Well, I guess I should at least finish up A3 Ryu before the doors close for good, my last contribution to the forum which both it and I have given and taken away repeatedly.
Currently the issue is slated for January 31 but Diamond ships whenever Diamond wants to ship. I never know for certain until a week in advance. I doubt if it misses that date that we won’t get it in February at the latest though.
It comes out tomorrow. but here is a preview from SF v. Darkstalkers #8, the final issue of the series
The frighteningly furious fighting game crossover comes to its chaotic conclusion! The demonic Jedah’s master plan threatens not only the World Warriors and the Night Warriors, but the universe itself! It’s the final chapter of STREET FIGHTER VS DARKSTALKERS!
I was following the Udon books until the Darkstalker crossover. Any major developments I miss? I heard Chun Li met Gen in the afterlife and learned some of his techniques. Anyone know if after this the books will go back to SF, or this is it for now?
I think that was the biggest thing that happened. Well will read the last issue an hour from now so let’s see what happens. After this Sagat will get a Street Fighter Legends series. My guess is it will happen in and around when Sagat is added to Street Fighter V Arcade Edition.
Thanks Sano, much appreciated. A longshot, but does Q appear in anything other than that awesome alternate cover? Also do the following characters appear or do anything?
Blanka, Charlie, Guile, Rashid? Also, is Alex normal again? Was curious to see what was gonna happen after the whole Gill control thing?
Ha well Alex was in the comic today. He looked normal so there you go.
Also forgot about Violent Ken showing up. That was the other big thing that happened in the series, SF-Wise.
Great ending. Loved this series. Now Capcom make a Street Fighter vs. Darkstalkers game so I can see Demitri Midnight Bliss people in current gen. Oh and put Dante from Devil May Cry in it just because lol!
So how was the ending, is everything “back to normal?” or are Darkstalkers permanently part of the SF world now? Any hints to the next story for SF? Not exactly sure how the DS cast fits into the crossover, were some “always part of the SF world, only now emerging?” Or was there a portal or something?
Always part of the SF comic book world now. Well hey Felicia is in the Tokyo stage in SF3 NG and Second Impact. Just with blonde hair. So maybe that’s enough for Udon lol! No portals, other than to get to the Makai of course.
There’s just an ad in the book that the Sagat series will start in Spring 2018.
Final boss (and boss baby) is defeated, and everyone goes back to their somewhat normal lives. It could be possible that Darkstalkers are now a part of the Udon Street Fighter canon world. But not officially part of the real canon. (Remember, Udon’s story and the official story timeline are separate). However, we do get hints of a Gill/Kolin shipping at the end. maybe possible hint of storylines for the next Udon Story arc.
Overall, i enjoyed the issue, and i’ve enjoyed the series. (of course, the bias me always wishes for more Chun-Li focus and spotlight), but i’m glad that she was a part of this. hard to say that I enjoy this more than the previous SF comics, but i looked forward to every issue since its release.
