SONIC RETOLD - Issue 5, Page 8 (Patreon)

[STH #118] - Mammoth Mogul threatened Dimitri's life to lure  Chaos Knuckles into a syphon chamber. Chaos Knuckles expelled all his energy to overload the syphon and defeat Mammoth Mogul, but at the cost  of his own life. With Aurora's guidance, he later learned how to use Chaos energy to return from the afterlife.

[STH #93] - When the roboticized General D'Coolette went berserk in Albion, the  latent Chaos energy inside Knuckles fully manifested itself,  transforming him into the green Chaos Knuckles. Gala-Na saw him as a  threat and recruited the weasels to capture him, where Yanar took him  prisoner. This event also led to Dr. Finitevus gaining his powers by attempting to syphon Chaos Knuckles' energy.

[STH #182] - After inheriting a measure of Chaos Knuckles' powers, Dr. Finitevus  betrayed his own race and allied himself with Dr. Eggman. Gala-Na called for Finitevus' execution, but he triumphed by leading Eggman's fleet  into destroying Albion.

Well, look who's back! Bet you all forgot about Yanar, eh? He hasn't been seen in the comics in twenty years since the Chaos  Knuckles arc. It's been speculated that he perished in the Egg Grapes, but his fate was never officially confirmed. His appearances were brief  but meaningful and he ended up developing a friendship with Knuckles.  Considering the hostile reaction Knuckles' return received in Albion,  it's nice to find a friendly face among them. I also took this  opportunity to revise Yanar's character design, since I didn't want him  to return in that caveman frock he usually wears. I kept the furs and  blended them with some design cues from Albion's soldiers. I think it's a  good look for him.

PATREON NOTE: I'm still struggling to maintain my weekly schedule. After the Albion scene is over, I'm gonna take a short break for Christmas. That will give me time to recover and prepare the next page early for Patreon supporters.
