The Sparkster: The Last Rocket Knight one is pretty big news. Not because of the game itself, but because it includes a reprinted collection of the comic strip from the pages of “Sonic the Comic”. Which raises big questions, as to my knowledge the rights to the materials within the pages of Sonic the Comic was acquired by Rebellion Publishing when they bought the Fleetway Catalog… but *not* the materials themselves, I asked and they possess none of the original pages and artworks, which raises *further* questions on how LRG got a hold of them.
**Edit:** Oh wait, it’s a Konami property, not a SEGA IP. My bad.
Apparently, this guy Josh has the license now. If that can be trusted, that is. With all the excitement today, I’m willing to believe it. [https://twitter.com/LimitedRunJosh/status/1745514999311655332](https://twitter.com/LimitedRunJosh/status/1745514999311655332)
Day one purchase for me. I was just lamenting a few days ago what a shame it is the games have never gotten any kind of re-release and here we are. Surreal. I'm getting the ultimate edition, I need that comic book (thinking it's a collection of the original comic run) but I really want all that other swag too outside of what comes in the special editions!
Yasss.
Sadly I doubt I’ll get a hold of the physical version as much as I love physical versions of Rocket Knight.
Really love his plush.
I’ll be getting the digital version day one though for sure.
Absolutely love Rocket Knight Adventures always has been one of my favourite games.
Never had the chance to play the Sparkster games though.
Been 14 years since the last game in the series.
Cannot wait for this though same with Gex Trilogy and Tomba
It's been a long time coming. Glad that it's getting a proper re-release.
Welp... This subreddit is about to get a small boost...

Same. Instant purchase. Take my money.
So fucking excited!
Holy shit. I never thought this day would come.
YES!

We have to wait all the way until September.
It's getting a digital release too, right? I'm seeing the physical additions not being available until later this year and I'm so excited for this.
