Sonic the Hedgehog #83

This 2025 IDW entry in the long-running series carries a cover by Bracardi Curry that's genuinely eye-catching — five characters rendered in a striking grayscale-sticker style are arranged over a vibrant, art-deco-flavored background poster featuring a masked figure at its center. Shadow, Rouge, Sonic, and a snarling feral-looking fox join that cloaked central character, giving the composition a theatrical ensemble feel that suits "The Stage Is Set, Part 3" perfectly. With Evan Stanley writing and Thomas Rothlisberger on interior art and inks alongside colorist Leonardo Ito, this issue looks to deliver the kind of layered, character-driven storytelling fans of the IDW run have come to appreciate.
