Since I haven't given any indication of this group on the main page, I might as well do it now.

This is the group for my third fanfic, Maximum Sonic, which I decided to make due to my dissatisfaction with the story telling of the Modern Sonic games past Unleashed and due to the cries of disheartened Archie Sonic fans, who have become displeased with the direction Ian Flynn has taken the comic in.

Maximum Sonic is a reboot of the Sonic the Hedgehog mythos that ignores everything established to start the story fresh. Maximum Sonic is a long story, as it is divided into three gargantuan story arcs based off the games, the Archie Comics, and the Fleetway Comics, with each arc being made up of self-contained mini-arcs based on the games (for Arc 1), the better received Archie Sonic stories (for Arc 2, although I will modify the controversial arcs to be better written), and the Fleetway stories (for Arc 3).

The ultimate goal of Maximum Sonic is to create an experience that every Sonic fan will be able to enjoy and to please the Sonic fans who have been left upset by the decline in story quality.

Big plans, little to show. Sound good, but don't think that other people didn't tried same thing, Flynn including.

Did you wrote anything before? If not one tip: Your first stories won't be as good as you thought. Don't be surprised if you'll get small feedback from people or little faves.  Begging is always hard.
I know from experience.

My plans are definitely ambitious.

I have written two fan made series before this that are still ongoing.

Really? But on your DA page are only episodes of one fic. (With only two by the way. You barely scratched one fic and already started next?) What's with third one? I'm assuming it's this Smash Bros thingy, but I don't see any episodes.

BTW, I just check your Ben's reboot. Honestly, it isn't very interesting. It's just "And Then There Were Ten" only with few twicks, mostly adding stuff from later shows. Nothing what would make me want to read more.

Also, writing in script style? In theory there's nothing wrong with it, but I would suggest normal writing. I know it's harder to write, but I'm afraid that's the point.

Super Smash Bros. Crossover is told through journals of the story arcs.

As for Ben 10 Reboot: Redemption Crossover, the reason it only has two episodes is because I'm not doing this project alone. Just like the official Ben 10, this series has multiple writers involved. Also, there will be more interesting things later on, namely crossovers and big story arcs.

Sweating a little... Sweating a little... Uh I meant "beginning". Definitely not begging. My bad.

I was thinking that maybe a few storylines could be a few giant 'take thats' to the "Endangered Species" storyline, the reboot, and many of the other controversial stuff.

Well, I do intend to rewrite some of the more controversial storylines to be better. As for jabs at the reboot, I do plan on having a crossover between my fanfics one day, so I may have Maximum Sonic's Sally (who wears Sally's classic outfit) question the fashion choice of Super Smash Bros. Crossover's Sally (who wears Sally's modern outfit)

Oh, I was also thinking about maybe a line from Antoine about his counterpart not wearing any clothes. I think that would be kind of funny.

Also, concerning some designs, while you are using Sally's classic design, I was thinking that maybe a few characters could have some updated designs that still keep in the spirit of who they are. I don't really draw, but I can describe them for you.

Also, since you're planning on rewriting and reimagining some of the more controversial storylines, I was thinking that maybe that would include the stuff from Karl Bollers' era, and the stuff near the end of Ken Penders' run. You know, when he went the way of Frank Miller and Jeph Loeb before him and became an egotistical jerk due to the higher-ups stroking his ego. Off topic, personally I think his earlier work is pretty good, but nowadays, he's kind of become a huge jerk. Like Frank Miller with Sin City, I think one of the problems which made his writing take a nosedive, other than the aforementioned ego-stroing, was that he started working on the Knuckles comic, and he couldn't stop working on it, even though he was mostly restricted by higher-ups. I mean, he really wanted to his, but like I said, he became a big jerk in the process Even though the lawsuit wasn't entirely his fault, I will say that all Penders, Archie, and SEGA should all share the blame, and if all three parties had been more reasonable, then maybe the reboot wouldn't have happened, but c'est la vie.

On a final note, even though it's just a fan-fic, I was considering a supposed voice cast. I could give you my choices so far, and you could make some suggestions of your own.

Which version of Antoine doesn't wear clothes?

I do intend on giving Sally's (and the other SATAM characters) classic design some modern tweaks as the series progresses.

I will rewrite any controversial stories by Archie, regardless of the run in question.

Wasn't Jeph Loeb's quality decline a result of his grief at his son's death?

Go right ahead and suggest a voice cast if you wish. I already have the voices for the game characters in mind and it will reflect the history of Sonic (starting with the Adventure cast before changing to the 4Kids cast with the Shadow the Hedgehog adaptation and finally settling on the current voice cast with the Sonic Colors adaptation onward), but you can tell me what voices you have in mind for everyone else.
