Sonic the Hedgehog #4

IDW's Sonic the Hedgehog #4 brings together a lively trio on Tyson Hesse's vibrant cover: Sonic himself leaps forward in full stride, a white-furred creature skates dynamically in the foreground on blazing orange energy, and the purple-furred Blaze the Cat swirls in fiery action in the background against a sunny, tropical landscape. Writer Ian Flynn and artist Evan Stanley continue the series here, with colorist Matt Herms giving the whole scene a warm, energetic glow that's hard to resist. Whether you're a longtime Sonic fan or just discovering IDW's take on the franchise in 2018, this issue looks like a genuinely fun ride.
