Talk:Archie Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 278

(SPOILER WARNING!) Betrayed?  Outwitted?  Neither?  Both?
I'm not sure if this belongs on a talk page, and I may be jumpting to conclusions here...but I've got to say this, and I say it now: the way I see it, the end of this issue's first story seems to indicate a double-cross. Or, is Nephthys just one of the smarter Egg Bosses thus far?

Just look at what we have here:
 * The Shamar Freedom Fighters claim to know Sonic, yet they acted surprised during the introductions (which happened AFTER the two groups first laid eyes on each other).
 * Sonar sends Big to take a look while a Dark Gaia monster creeps into the area, while Chip (who, being Light Gaia, is vital to fixing the world) is left with her.
 * Spike and Trevor Burrows direct Antoine down a hallway, which just so happens to be booby-trapped (coincidence much?).
 * Sonic is almost instantly surrounded by Nephthys' forces upon entering her lair, as if she knew in advance that he was coming.
 * Eggman's face is pictured alongside those of the SFFs on the next issue's main cover.

There are other possibilities of course. The Shamar Freedom Fighters are apparently younger than the Knothole Freedom Fighters, and therefore might be less experienced. Plus, according to the dialogue in StH #267, Eggman's spying on Sonic via the Tails Doll, so HE could've notified Nephthys. Overall, something went wrong somewhere, and while that's nothing new, I can't help but feel suspicious about all this. What do YOU think, folks?STH235SilverLover (talk) 03:45, November 19, 2015 (UTC)
