When Worlds Collide Part 3: No Holds Barred
In this Issue we finally get a more meaty fight Between Mega Man and Sonic and with that more straight forward, not that it's only a slug fest, there are the odd bits of story development. In that respect theirs not much to say but that's not bad, rest assured
As your read through the fight you get an insight into how they view each other and how they think, Sonic cleverly using his home advantage while Mega Man struggles but succeeds to keep up as a result there is page after page of rather excellent panels.
As for the non-fighting parts are with Wiley & Eggman and Dr.Light in his Lab with roll.
The developing Bro-mance between these two badniks, complimenting each other, enjoying Mega Man and Sonic beating the rings out of each other and seeing their minions wait on them hand and foot is a treat. They even do an "Evil Fist Bump"
In Dr. Light's lab Proto Man arrives while he tries to figure out what's going on, you can see the hard feelings Proto Man has for his father but knows when he needs help which is apparent with his interactions with roll.
This was only round 1 of this Sonic and Mega Man beatdown as next issue has Mega Man facing Sonic on his home turf and he has brought some friends along.
Conclution
This issue was better than the last maybe because of the action but I'd say because things have moved along a bit more, the heroes haven't gotten to grips with the situation yet and cracks are beginning to show in the Evil Dr.s plans.
Things are shaping up rather nicely, in this very "way past cool" comic book 
This is V saying "Everybodies supersonic racing!"
