They corrected Sallys color in issue #16. However, Sally _has_ pink fur
and dark hair in the sathurday morning cartoon episode 'Heads or Tails'.

To my opinion the comic is a mixup of _both_ cartoon series _and_ the
video games, making a complete mess out of it. However, the first three
issues of the mini-series (drawn by Scott Shaw!) were the best I've seen
for years, both in artwork and storyline.

The comic editors claim to work 'hand in hand' with SEGA, but I believe
they just do what they want including the use of characters from other
comics (issue #8 'Bot's all, folks' or issue #19 'Night of 1000 Sonics')
or adaptions from well-known movies/books like Frankenstein or King Kong
(issue #17 'Gorilla Warfare').

Maybe the editors just _don't know_ anything about Tails background...?

Just my opinion - don't flame me
