Oh and much like the show the (sadly short lived) Sonic Boom comic looks like it was pretty great too.
Is that a cyber-bunny thing? How does she... uh... forget it, I don't want to know.This might be my favorite joke I've read in the Archie stuff.
(They're on there honeymoon.)

She was partially roboticized leaving her a cyborg. Handy for fighting badguys. As for the second part , well, seeing as in at least one timeline they have two kids.
The Mega Man comic was so fucking good. I'm still mad it was cancelled.
It had a lot of downs, but I have a lot of nostalgia for it.
One of my favorite panels. I loved that book as a kid.
too bad he totally raped bunnie
yeah, thats not sonic, thats scrouge pretending to be him and its totally implied they banged here under false pretenses...
I really should read the Sonic the Comic run...I'm glad I mostly drop the Archie run, kind of regret not fully going back when Ian Flynn took over though.
These comics are wild. I can't believe there was so little oversight from Sega.
Then again, Sega thought giving Shadow a gun was a good idea, so maybe it wouldn't have made a difference.

Shit like this is why I didn't read 25YL.

The first chunk of Archie Sonic was peak 90's.

On a related note I say the Wispons are one of the best additions made to the series lore in a while. It adds firearms without breaking the suspension of disbelief like Shadow's did.
On that note, Whisper is adorable.
Hell yeah, that and Super Sonic vs. Hyper Knuckles were the shit! Shame about most of everything after it, though...
Though the Flynn stuff I read was pretty good. Not a huge fan of his newer stuff though. It's not bad by any means but feels a lot emptier than what came before it.

These pages are actually what made me start reading the IDW series. It's just so weirdly brutal and caught me off guard.
It plays the zombie angle so horrifyingly straight and I love it.
A certain little rabbit just lost her entire family (her mom and two Chao, but the robot in Sonic Advance 3 still protects her).
She's more than traumatized at this point, but it's a bit surprising she holding it in right now.

i think the alien weponry was fun it was the weird ass human military weapons that were offOn a related note I say the Wispons are one of the best additions made to the series lore in a while. It adds firearms without breaking the suspension of disbelief like Shadow's did.

It gets even better once you realize Archie Sonic's feats are so ludicrous that he's one of the most powerful characters ever conceived in all of fiction.
That's not even an exaggeration. Super Sonic is capable of defeating beings who can annihilate thousands of multiverses simultaneously. The shit he pulls off is ridiculous.

The Fleetway UK comic was great - I picked it up every fortnight as a kid, all the way through to the end.
The things I remember loving at the time:
- introduction of Metal Sonic / Metallix in the Sonic CD adaptation
- the introduction of Chaotix and the Brotherhood of Metallix (including their emperor)
- Super Sonic splitting away from sonic into his own crazed entity, and being trapped by Chaotix - finally breaking free in issue 100 I think and unleashing hell before ultimately losing and losing his memory - loved that one, where the spread from OP comes from
- the introduction of the Drakon Empire and Knuckles Metallix
- Robotnik finally obtaining all chaos emeralds and becoming all powerful - from what I remember his body basically became emerald-like itself, another multi issue saga

I only ever read the Fleetway comics as a kid and I loved that shit back then. Even their OC stuff like decap attack. Archie just seems super weird
Oh, yeah, early Sonic comic material was... Well... Bonkers, in many respects.
Sega in particular didn't start paying proper attention until the end of Penders' run, and when actual editorial oversight started happening, he quit because he couldn't do whatever the hell he wanted. It took the relatively inexperienced Flynn years to pick up the pieces and sort out the clusterfuck of plot threads.
I think a lot of it can be summed up as "early on, video game companies weren't very good at managing multimedia licenses". Certain companies could get away with a lot of stuff and the folks who were supposed to be on oversight wouldn't notice. Bloody hell, the fact that Darkstalkers got a Saturday morning cartoon (albeit a short-lived one) tells you a lot about how much these companies didn't care until the 2000s. The publisher of the Brazillian Mega Man comic, to their credit, at least fired the guy who was planning on basically having his own original character kill off the rest of the cast.

Even as a kid I knew the Archie Sonic comics were weird as fuck.
Its greatest legacy and appeal all these years later is just what crazy batshit ideas and plot lines it had in it. Oh and extending a Sonic cartoon with two short seasons from 1993 that ended in 1994 and extending it all the way to like 2010.
It's whole existence, and longevity is just crazy to me.

These comics were partially responsible for "awakening" some people i know who have fur fetishes
Incidentally, that culminated in this.
Why do I feel like Sonic has been the test market for all the wild stuff Archie comics would do with their titular series in the 2010s?
Also, how did I miss out on this gem?
Omg I had this as kid, this brings back so many memories.I fucking loved psycho Super Sonic, read the hell out of the Sonic the Comic UK stuff when I was a kid. The 'Origin' of Sonic from that is canon in my head.
