War is a webcomic series on Smackjeeves by a famous webcomic writer with a series of six panels apiece. The plot follows three conflicting sides: the heroes (Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and Silver), the villains (Chaos, Bowser, Wart, Smithy, and Shadow Queen), and the robots (G-mel, Emerl, and Mecha Sonic).
Season 1[]

Sonic and Shadow are in space. They are apparently having a meeting. Shadow summons the seven Chaos Emeralds Sonic asks for. Before they can use them, four explosions happen, and G-mel appears, grabbing the purple, silver, and green Chaos Emeralds, along with Emerl, who grabs the cyan, red, and yellow Chaos Emeralds. The Blue Emerald unknowingly falls towards the planet below. Sonic and Shadow are knocked unconscious as the two conflicting robots teleport away.
2[]
Knuckles and Tails are waiting. Silver arrives, and informs that Mecha Sonic has escaped from an intense robot prison. Later, the blue Chaos Emerald falls to them, but before they can grab it, a blast from Mecha Sonic causes them to flinch, and Mecha Sonic grabs the Emerald.

Season 2[]
24[]
Recently, it reveals that during the hiatus Mecha Sonic defeats G-mel, Emerl, Wart, Smithy, and Shadow Queen. With Chaos and Bowser already defeated, Mecha Sonic goes Super with the seven Chaos Emeralds. Just as Mecha obliterates Sonic, Mephiles appears and shoots Mecha, cutting him in two and leaving the bounty for Mecha Sonic.
The future of this comic is unknown... If it continues, a 23.2, 23.4, 23.6, and 23.8 are planned as interquels showing the robot battle, and Mecha Sonic's betrayal. Sonic will still be the last one standing, but now that Sonic has been killed off, Mephiles rises to power.
Chapters 24-46 chronologize Mephiles' rise to power and the power-hungry villain entourage to steal the Emeralds and take Mephiles' power. There's a small unity of villains that team up for the common goal, consisting of King K. Rool, Mecha Knuckles, and the Tails Doll. The trio succeeds in defeating Mephiles at around Chapter 35, but they begin to do what Mephiles did. In the second half of Season 2 and Season 3 the Kong Family strikes at the trio of power. In Season 2 they go on a quest to find the Triforce, and at the very end the supposedly dead Chaos and Bowser show up first. They drop a bomb in the Triforce cave and teleport away, and as the bomb ticks, the Kong Family is trapped and the season ends.
If successful, Season 3 will chronologize 47-69 (yeah, yeah) a possible hope for the heroes, as the Kong Family escape and win the Triforce back in a rather anticlimactic way. The Kong Family goes Super (no idea how he plans to do it) and attacks K. Rool, Tails Doll, and Mecha Knuckles. The season will end with the Emeralds and Triforce restored, but a glimmer of hope for the villains can lead to a possible Season 4.
And if successful still, the Season 4 (70-82) will have the Kong Family revive Mario and Sonic and their friends, but a timely appearance of Megaman and Protoman leads to a suspicion that their rivals and enemies Zero and Bass plan to start what the other villains started. Zero and Bass go it alone, becoming ultra-powerful with the Chaos Emerald and Triforce. The Kong Family, Mario's group, and Sonic's group leads to a seemingly all-villain world, but an unlikely unity of the two Robot Masters Megaman and Protoman, and the new recruit Falco save the world by almost destroying Bass and Zero, who teleport away.
Last but not least, Season 5 (83-100) has Bass and Zero arriving and going back in time to Chapter 1, and kill Sonic, Shadow, and then Emerl and G-mel. He kills off the heroes one by one, including the unseen heroes of Seasons 2 and 3 at the time of Season 1. They rise to power, and destroy all the lands, but towards the end, an unexpected and unconfirmed survivor challenges Bass and Zero for the final confrontation.
