Last month, Archie Comics took a brave, bold step into continuity coherence with
the introduction of a new series, SONIC UNIVERSE. Designed to unify the
various Sonic continuities as never before and tie up loose ends, SONIC
UNIVERSE #1 began Sonic and his friends down the road of a cohesive, unified
continuity. Best of all, it promises to deliver some of the popular supporting cast
from the many Sonic video games, including many who have never appeared in the
comics before!
This March, SONIC UNIVERSE is back with an action-packed second issue.
It is the eve of Sonic's big confrontation with Dr. Robotnik, but Shadow and Rouge
have other plans. As the three of them embark on a crucial midnight raid, readers
will have the opportunity to simultaneously look back on a time when Sonic and
Shadow weren't so friendly as they witness the lost tale of their battle for the ARK!
It's déjà vu all over again as the present and past run parallel in the high-action
tale, "Time and Again"!
Meanwhile, the countdown to the 200th issue of the monthly SONIC THE
HEDGEHOG series continues in issue #198. In "Egg Phoenix Down," Sonic leads
the fully assembled Freedom Fighters and Chaotix on an invasion of Dr. Robotnik's
city, but the doctor unleashes a terrifying new weapon that may make their fight a
short one! These egg-plosive events will have impact upon the events that
transpire in SONIC UNIVERSE, providing unified and ongoing continuity as
the storylines and cast of characters expand.
If ever there was a time to jump on board and become a Sonic reader, that time is
now! Be sure to order these March-shipping issues:
