Got it today. Overall another great issue. Here is a basic summary. It begins with Nash in some mountain path alone wondering what Bison did to him, then it cuts to where issue 4 ended with Sagat and Ryu begining to fight. Sagat backs down from the fight to warn Ryu of Bison's interest in him. We then see Guile and Chun-li on their way to see Ken and Ryu but Nash is able to find them. Guile/Nash and Chun-li have a little cha which brings up Chun-Li's father(who looks like Dorai from SF2V) and the dolls. Bison pops up to fight the three. The rest of my comments will be spoilers down below.

Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
The Bison fight ends with what looks like Nash using the Psycho power given to him to power him up. Nash uses a Somersault Justice to cut off the side of a mountain. At the very end Akuma apperas. Pretty cool pose.

End of Spoiler

Oh, almost forgot. The backstory is about a fight between Vega and Cammy so Bison could test Cammy's strength.

Did anyone get what Vega did to Cammy in the backup story? I also didn't appreciate the gratuitous 'fake' nudity (Cammy was regenerating in a tub/coffin and her skin was super pale/white, you didn't see anything but it was obvious she was naked. Good use of bubbles). (If I want porn, I'll get real porn.)

Overall, good story. While reading it, I thought Charlie wasn't gonna die. I really thought he'd join up with Chun/Guile. But then I thought, that would REALLY screw up continuity (not that its that important). But then woops, it looks like he bit the dust.

Yeah right.

Other cool things. Sakura's friend (Kei?) mentioned Sak getting into fights at school with Karin. Cool tidbit. Then we see Sakura and Kei hiding from Ken and Ryu just as Akuma arrives. Scary!

Another interesting bit. Charlie uses a Somersault "Slash" (a flash kick) and a Somersault "Justice" (super combo). WELL, <anal mode> the proper name for Charlie's flash kick is "Somersault Shell". </anal mode> They got the right name for his super combo. I think Chuck also did his Crossfire Blitz super combo. Pretty impressive, being that he had been shot up.

Cammy was actually "nude in the tube" since her first tube appearance in that four-page exclusive comic that Udon did for Newtype. Actually, come to think of it, although that's the only nudity so far, there's a lot of gratuitous fanservice in the comic strewn about here and there (for example, random panty shots of female extras in the backgrounds). Still not as gratuitous as the shower scene of the animated movie, though.

I like how Ryu and other male characters can occasionally strut around shirtless without receiving any sort of complaints. But getting back to creative uses of the female form, my favorite shot so far in the comic series was the panel that was framed using the inside of Chun-Li's thighs. I don't know who thought up that insane angle for that picture but whomever it was they should either be locked up or win some sort of award for their ingenuity.

That's because Trenchcoat Vega is too cool for us guys to notice how hot he is.

The guys "occassionally" (that's probably an understatement) strut around shirtless but I don't think I've seen any pantsless (absolutely nothing) guys, yet, although Zangief comes close ^_~. Come to think of it, they should have the "Ryu is in his underwear at the laundromat" scene like that official artwork. That would be cool.

I just looked at that scene more closely, myself. It seems like he only slashed her in the face, after all. The other slash marks are actually not really slash marks so much as flying blood from the face slash from what I can see.

Yep, Udon, the art studio behind Street Fighter, is an impressive lot. Udon has done a lot of work for big name publishers, like Marvel. They're usually given assignments like doing all of the artwork for a certain comic. Or sometimes, its just to do the coloring work. I'm pretty sure Street Fighter is their first, 'independent' comic book. And I'm very glad that Capcom gave them the license. You clearly can tell they love the characters.

It's still hard to suspend disbelief. There's a blood trail coming off all three prongs of the claw, which means all three would have had to make contact. Yet she only has ONE cut. It could have been that the claw was sideways but then he would have slashed her shoulder too... ARRRGH why do I have to notice these things

Good point. That's a lotta blood to be coming from one small cut like that.

My own belief wasn't too hard to suspend mainly because it wasn't paying too much attention. Events can move so fast in this comic (I don't really blame Udon, but the Street Fighter storyline and especially humongous cast is kinda hard to cram into a mere 16 pages a month comic...) and the back-up stories only being 4 pages, my mind just kinda flies by them without noticing details too much until I look back, later on.

Do you mean in the comic book storyline or the game canon storyline? In the latter, I believe it was Bison/Vega (dictator) that killed her father personally, since that's what he says to Chun-Li in SFA2.

Ah then it's canon that Bison killed him and comic book that Killer Bee killed him. Then the comic would differ in this case to the Canon story

Yea, the comic book differs in a lot of ways to the canon story in many of the smaller details like that (in fact, I'd almost go out and say that Udon purposefully chose to have the details in the comic that are closest to the canon be ones that are eye openers, like Eliza being Jane/Julia's sister, while smaller facts that no one would really care about like who killed Chun-Li's father were changed for the sake of artistic license).

Things like Sakura being a fan of E. Honda first (in the canon, she didn't even meet him until SFA3) and of course, Shadow, differ from the canon a lot. Although interestingly enough, on a random note, Udoneko said that Udon went to Capcom to ask for what Chun-Li's father looked like and was named, and Capcom replied that they never designed Chun-Li's father so Udon should just go and use Dorai from SF2V (IE, Dorai's name and look aren't canon but since there isn't any canon name and look to Chun's father, Capcom told Udon to just use him).

Well, "Bison killed Chun-Li's father" is a rather vague statement. I mean, how exactly did he kill her father? If Bison were taken to court and it was revealed that he ordered his assassins to do the job-- he certainly would be convicted of murder.

As TR pointed out, I also think Udon's use of cannon in their series a little 'funny'. My biggest gripe though is the melding of the Alpha storyline with the SF2 storyline (not that SF2 had much of a storyline but still...) Well whatever-- its been a fun comic so far.

Personally, I don't mind Cammy killing Chun-Li's father since it gives them a serious rivalry rather than a "They're both girls so they should fight" rivalry.

In Canon Storyline, Vega(Dictator) did kill Chun-Li's dad since he said he did. Vega's an interesting villain in that he doesn't lie. So all those things he was saying in SFZ3 about being immortal and everything he wasn't lying. Even how he said Cammy used to kill for him in SF2 turned out to be true. (Capcom USA screwed this up and had him say he and Cammy were lovers. Darn Cap USA...)

And the whole Nash thing, what the comic did was actually brilliant. If they would of stuck to the storyline, we'd be seeing Chun-Li working with Nash in the beginning and we wouldn't see Guile for a while. By having Nash disappear, become brainwashed/somehow upgraded to become Agent Shadow and seemingly die more than once we get Guile in every single issue. Since this comic is made with the US audience in mind, Guile is way more popular than Nash here. In Japan Nash is more popular.

In the end, it's Comedic how Nash seemed to die twice in the same comic and even in the end when he did supposedly die no corpse was shown, much like his actual death in SFZ3, so Nash fans can still believe he's out there somewhere if they want.

Nash's official death in SFZ3 (Guile's ending) was a lot cooler than Studio Udon's version, but I don't think the comic wanted to have Vega's body destroyed so he could come back later in a weaker body since it's one of the more whackier things in SF.

I honestly can't wait until Studio Udon gets to SF3 since not a whole lot has been done with that series. No Animes, there are two EXTREMELY BAD Hong Kong Comics based on it and Ryu Final doesn't showcase all the characters and ends in a way that tosses continuity out of the window 100% more then Studio Udon probably ever will by killing Ryu and Gouki... Maybe Udon can give us some info on Remy's dad, how Q witnessed the fall of Shadowloo, and have Gill's end of the world prophecy come true or come close to coming true. Even if whatever Udon does will be unofficial it will still be really cool since SF3 Third Strike is the greatest Fighting Game ever created IMHO but it never gets the props it diserves.

Wait a wacky minute. I have Ryu Final, and yeah, the ending is pretty grusome, but do you really think the two are dead. Be aware, that I can't read Japanese and I bought the manga cause I like purty pictures.

The reason that I don't think they died is because these characters have shown some amazing regenerative abilities.

Also, if someone could give me a brief synopsis of the conversation Ryu and Gouki had before they fought, during the fight and after they fought, that would be great. It seems like a weird conversation because at first they appear to be laughing together then we get a flashback of Gouken, but then they start to fight and things get 'blood-tastic'.

I can't read Japanese either, but everyone I talked to about Ryu Final says he did die. Ken finds Ryu's corpse with a huge gapping hole in his body after being struck with t Shun Goku Satsu and burries him, and in the end his ghost visits Alex, I mean, I've seen some nutty comebacks in Fiction and all, but the Manga is called 'Ryu Final' and has Ryu settling his rivalry with Sagat sorta (in official storyline the two never fight after SFZ3) so it's not really official anyway.

Masahiko Nakahira's SFZ Manga was my favorite.

Nakahira is awesome. Ryu Final is my favorite. Its kind of a sad story if you think about it. I mean, Ryu is an orphan that got picked up by some karate master and because of that he became embroiled into this martial arts legacy. Its almost like he didn't have a choice and then he dies because of it.

Everything leading up to that 'final' fight with Gouki was great. He made up with Sagat. He had those flashbacks of Gouken's death. Though it is a bit funny that those two fools have gaping holes in their chests and they still keep throwing punches!

Sigh. I need write to comics-one and tell them to publish this over here. I pre-ordered their SNKvCapcom book.

Now Gamest is Arcadia (more or less, both were owned by parent companies and Gamest's parent was the one that went out of business) but they've done nothing to re-issue these books and I'm not sure if they can due to legal problems.

That reads almost like a justification for Stefan's obsession on Chun Li and Cammy's "rivalry", when there is no such a thing.

Actually, now that I think about it, Stefan IS going to use this as a justification for his obsession, even though the Udon comic is not canon.

Why should they have a rivalry in the first place? I mean, think about it. Chun Li _barely_ sees Cammy in the Alpha storyline, so they never met each other. By the time of SF2 Chun Li and Cammy have no idea of who the other is, and look for Vega (Bison) because of completely different reasons. By SF3 Cammy has her own life and Chun Li has her own businesses with Urien.

The way Bison talks to Chun-Li in Alpha 2 is heavily implicative that he killed her father personally (okay, admittingly, Capcom USA is always screwing up translations...). He spares her but tells her "Next time, I'll kill you just like I did your father!" which isn't something one would say after a fight with the daughter if they sent minions to kill the father, I think.

And yea, Iggy's right. It's technically an important storyline fact. I guess I figured by now, most people just... I dunno, having Bison kill Chun-Li's father wouldn't make people go "WOW! Udon really did their homework!" unlike the more vague SF things like the Julia Eliza sisterhood and Rose sharing a soul with M. Bison (...technically, the latter is supposed to be obvious considering that Bison says it directly in Rose's ending but it was just handled so poorly by Capcom that no one can believe it...). Meanwhile, it's not something that most people would care about enough to be mad at Udon for changing it (as opposed to say, making up random love relationships).

Aw, I think in some cases, it's okay. Since the comic IS incorporating a lot of "the smaller details" of the canon (again, Eliza Julia sisterhood comes to mind, but there are many other small canon details Udon fit in, all of which I forget at the moment. Charlie teaching Guile, I guess) but not actually SAYING which of those are canon and which aren't, it's probably logical that people would ask which of those smaller details are canon and which aren't. Had the comic not been on a grey line and instead either followed the canon like a storyline-nazi or deviated from the canon like a live-action SF movie, then asking if something in the comic happened in the actual canon might make you look like an idiot. But that's not the case, here, I think.

As long as DKW doesn't show up, again. *shudder* (don't forget that CvS2 is canon because MvC2 having characters in it who's timelines conflict proved that time travel exists in the canon which allows CvS2 to happen in the canon!)

I do know it includes issue 0 but will not include any of the back-up stories, though (which is too bad, since a lot of the back-up stories seem... kind of important to the plot, I think).

Early on Editor Erik Ko did say Studio Udon will release a TPB with all the Back Up stories, but they have to wait until they have enough back stories for a TPB. If they were to do it now, including the two stories from Gamepro and Newtype, it would be about 28 pages, a bit small for a TPB.
