Aack! Tag-teaming!
I both do and don't recommend reading the Archie comics... Oh, who am I kidding - yes I do! You should both have a shot at it! I was working on a reading order in release-order, but
Bobby TKP has a great reading-order which is in the order that she read it - there's one or two things that are a bit out of order, but it will take you through the Archie Sonic & Mega Man reading order~ Yes, and Mega Man! Oh, my god. They did two huge cross-overs. You should totes read the Mega Man comics alongside. What a TREAT! And... It's in the first Mega Man crossover that they completely wipe my beloved echidnas out of the canon! And I can't be mad in the slightest, because that is HILARIOUS! DAMN YOU, DR. WILY! IS NOTHING SACRED?!??!?!?!?!?!? MY ECHIDNAS!!!!!!!
Actually, my OC Zara-Ra was first created for a RP which was set post-reboot, but he's a preboot character.. So I justified it by Snake Man (from Mega Man 3) punting him -so- hard in the middle of the big tussle, that he accidentally flew out-of-bounds, and ended up zoot-chuting into the new continuity for the Sonic comics.
It cracks me up.
