Cover Opinion:
Wow, as I've said before, covers that go along with the
comic book issue. I personally adore. This one is great too!
Even if it is on the simple side. Simplicity at it's best. |

Cover Opinion:
This cover looks very traditional. The characters are
drawn with a Capcom-Style that I've seen before. I really
like this cover, but not so much. It's simple, yet the
characters have absolutely no sense together. Not bad. |

Artist: Arnold Tsang
Cover: Power Foil
Print: Special Edition Limited

Cover Opinion:
If anything, Arnold Tsang knows how to draw amazing.
This cover is definitely wonderful. While it is showcasing
Akuma, it technical focuses more on the power that is
grasped within is hand. What a great power foil. |

Introduction:
Ryu has to face Gouken's murderer Akuma in an
immense battle! Sakura is shown to be knocked out.
While Eliza has a secret to tell Ken. The aftermath
of Bison's death leaves Chun-Li and Guile mourning
over the deaths of their beloved ones. While 'Killer
Bee' is found to be in Rome.
|
Synopsis: Showing a memory of Ryu with his
Master Gouken before the battle between Akuma. Akuma
takes on both Ryu and Ken in a long fight. Akuma
explains to both of them that they are weak and
Master Gouken was incompetent. When Ken is knocked
out for a moment, Sakura jumps out after glorying at
Ryu's immense strength. She jumps out and asks Ryu
at that moment in time, if he could be her master.
Akuma knocks Sakura out and Ryu rips out a piece of
his gi and wraps it around Sakura's bleeding
forehead where Akuma knocked her. A memory comes
back in which Ryu tapped into the Dark Hadou, which
he releases the power again in front of Akuma.
Akuma says that Ryu should embrace his power and
find him in the next Street Fighter tournament. Ryu
closes his eyes after being pounded onto the ground,
and remembers that Master Gouken wished that he
would have never seen that power inside him. In the
hospital, Eliza tells Ken that she is pregnant, and
Ken is unable to go to a journey with Ryu. However,
Sakura pops out and says that she instead will
follow Ryu and not Ken. In Rome, Rose begins to
speak about Cammy, who just awoke in front of the
British Embassy. Rose begins to talk as a concluding
end, in showing every major character's fate ending.
And the journey begins...for Ryu and Sakura.

Conclusion: Finally, an issue that lasts longer
than 18 pages. It only lasted 5 pages more but the 5
pages helped give a strong storyline that concludes
a lot. This issue appears to be able to conclude so
many other things instead of the Interpol side of
the arc. It's amazing to see such a storyline unfold
into a wonderful conclusion. Everything seemed to
fit perfectly into place at the end. Yet, leaving so
many questions.
There is no negatives in this issue. This issue is
wonderful. It ties up every everything before the
start of another arc. What other way could they have
done it? This issue does have one factor...that I
liked, but I also didn't. In the Street Fighter II:
Animated Movie, we see that Ken gave Ryu a headband
of his because he was bleeding on his forehead...but
where does this show up again? Well, it shows up
with Ryu and Sakura. Awkward. At least Udon is
trying to incorporate every Street Fighter-related
thing into one.
That ends the first 6 issues that was jam packed
with such a battle. While most storylines have
concluded, there are more storylines that open. We
have Cammy who is found in Rome, but what will she
do? We have Chun-Li still sad over her father's
death, where will she go now that it's over? Guile,
seeing his best friend die in person, what will he
do now? And finally, where will the journey between
Ryu and Sakura go to? It seems Udon left us a lot of
questions that make this issue worthwhile! |
