Sonic the Hedgehog #56

A glowing, golden Super Sonic squares off against a determined Knuckles the Echidna in a burst of crackling energy, while an eerie crowd of green, shadowy figures looms in the background — it's a striking image that immediately demands attention. Pat Spaziante's pencils and Harvey Mercadoocasio's inks give this March 1998 Archie issue a vivid, kinetic intensity that suits the dramatic story title, "Immortality Is Forever...Life Is Finite," perfectly. With a creative team including writer Kent Taylor and artists Manny Galan and John Hebert, this is a standout entry in the long-running Sonic the Hedgehog Adventure Series.
