I'm fine with having multiple canons/universes, but I wish newer canons would be more open to draw insperation from them, rather then ignore them.
 
Like how the 2012 reboot of TMNT brought back some old characters, but did new things with them.


 
The Archie Comics canon was basically that. A combination of the classic games, modern games, classic DIC cartoons, and some new stuff.
 
It was my favorite canon, because of that.

I like mixing old canons together with new stuff to make a new canon.
 
Some fans liked it, (I did) but some felt meshing the game characters/stories with the SatA.M. cartoon's characters, and setting/premise "didn't work." (Like with overexplaining Station Square as some hidden city, and such.)
 
But on the other hand, the series did a few clever ways to combine the canons.


 
Some fans even wanted the comics to be either only game settings/characters, or SatA.M. ones.
 
I dunno, I liked both. I don't get fans that only like one Sonic canon, or try to compete them against each other.
