Eggman and Wily have teamed up, created their own pocket universe called the Skull Egg Zone, roboticized all of Sonic's friends into Robot Masters, and captured Dr. Light in their flying fortress. Sonic and Megaman meet up and team up and head out to stop the evil scientists. With their friends turned back to normal and fighting a never-ending army of Robot Masters, Sonic and Megaman storm into the enemy fortress and run into Bass, Treble and Metal Sonic! What will happen now?
The issue opens with Eggman and Wily hastily working on their Egg-Wily Machine X while bickering. In the previous issue, Eggman tried to kill Dr. Light by throwing him out of the Wily Egg but he was rescued by Shadow. Wily was furious that he tried to kill Light (since he wants to humiliate him and prove that he was better than him, but not outright kill him) and Eggman is angry since he considers this a weakness. Once they finish the Machine X, they both plan to double-cross each other.
Meanwhile, Sonic is busy fighting against Metal Sonic, while Megaman is trying to take on both Bass and Treble. The blue heroes decide they can't be wasting time fighting these guys and Sonic says they should switch partners. Since Metal Sonic and Bass were made to defeat their particular rivals, they figure it won't be so easy to fight someone else. Unfortunately... Bass and Treble are too much for Sonic, and Metal Sonic is too fast for Megaman. They decide they should gang up on one first with Megaman's new weapons and then take out the other. After deciding with rock, paper and scissors, they decide to attack Bass and Treble first.
Sonic dashes in and trips up Treble. As Bass smacks the hedgehog away, Megaman blasts him with the Chaos Cannon he obtained from Shadow. While Bass is trapped in the energy blast, Sonic flies in and hits him with his Sonic Spin dash. Megaman used the Psycho Burst he obtained from Silver to send Treble flying. He then does the same to Treble, and then slams him to the floor, with Sonic smashing into him to finish him off.
Metal Sonic flies into the battle just as Treble is about to attack Megaman. The Blue Bomber uses the Chroma Camo he obtained from Espio to turn transparent, and Metal Sonic and Treble crash into each other. Megaman used the Acoustic Blaster he got from Vector to blast Bass in the face. Sonic then trips up Bass and Megaman smashes him with the Piko Hammer he got from Amy Rose. Megaman blasts Metal Sonic with the Tail Wind he got from Tails, and Sonic knocks him down and 'surfs' on him so Megaman can smash into him with the Sharp Knuckle he got from Knuckles.
Metal Sonic still isn't out though and he flies into Megaman, tackling him. Megaman uses the Rapid Stinger he got from Charmy and Sonic hits his robot double from behind. Sonic and Megaman see that their enemies are finally defeated, and while they're tired and injured, they still get ready to defeat the evil scientists. Just then there a big explosion that destroys one of the walls.
The Egg-Wily Machine X finally appears and the heroes prepare to attack but are quickly taken down. Megaman and Sonic wake up in floating capsules, kept alive so the villains can gloat. The seven Chaos Emeralds are into position and fully charged for the final phase of their plan. The heroes realize that the contest to hunt down and stop the Roboticized Masters was to buy the bad guys time to finish their plans. Megaman asks why they need the Genesis Wave if they have already shaped both their worlds. The scientists say they were only able to change some details here and there, but this time they can completely reshape everything, they'd be gods. Megaman and Sonic watch as the scientists start to activate the device.... meanwhile, Protoman and the gang are still fighting off the army of Robot Masters, and are starting to look tired and injured. How will this all end?
My Opinions-
Pretty good issue and it's basically an all-out battle between Megaman and Sonic with Metal Sonic, Treble and Bass. It was a pretty good fight and the bad guys really showed how powerful they were. The first tactic of 'switch your partner' didn't work, and even when they decided to double-team them one by one, they would still take several hits before they would finally go down. Plus it was a good time to have Megaman show off his new weapons he got from the Roboticized Masters. Kinda made me wish they did make a crossover game.
The only continuity problem I see here is this weird scene where Metal Sonic seems to pulling himself out of a wall as if he crashed into it, or if Sonic or Megaman smashed him into it.... but the very last page we saw him standing triumphantly after sending Megaman flying into a block. There was no cut-away scene to anything else... and it made me check back to see if I didn't miss a page... but no. So yeah, this scene was rather weird and out of place, but I guess it shows what Metal Sonic was doing since he wouldn't just stand and watch as Megaman and Sonic were ganging up on Bass.
Eggman and Wily have gone from being evil bros to now planning on double-crossing each other once their plan was over. It's kind of a shame since while we expect bad guys to betray each other all the time, these two seemed to be really be sincere in their friendship at first. Ah well. We knew the clash of egos would have eventually caused them to become enemies at some point.
We didn't really see any of the others in this one, minus the after-image of the characters Megaman's new weapons were based on, but I figure the old school Robot Masters got more than enough cameos in the last two issues. It's all coming to an epic conclusion.
