About this Collection

This collected edition from Archie Comics brings together early issues of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, focusing on key first appearances and foundational moments for the Freedom Fighters. Featuring Sonic, Tails, Princess Sally Acorn, Bunnie Rabbot, Antoine D'Coolette, and Knuckles the Echidna, the stories pit them against Dr. Robotnik and his forces, including Snively and various Badniks like Buzzbomber and Crabmeat. The volume highlights the debut of characters and concepts that would shape the long-running comic continuity, including the first appearance of Super Sonic.

In "Don't Cry for Me, Mobius," Sonic the Hedgehog faces his most bizarre threat yet when Dr. Robotnik transforms a small lizard into the colossal Universalamander, a creature of pure destruction. With time running out, Sonic must gather 50 magic gold rings to unlock his Super Sonic form and stand a chance against the towering foe. Written by Michael Gallagher and illustrated by Dave Manak, with inks by Henry Scarpelli, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1997 issue features a cover by Patrick Spaziante and Harvey Mercadoocasio.
