  • Out of all Sonic's many Comic Book endeavours such as the Archie, Fleetway and Manga series, one of the more obscure ones I found was the French Sonic Comic from 1994, let's check it out!

    Though speaking of Sonic Comics, I really hope Tangle and Whisper becomes a running side-series to the main Sonic IDW series, not only are both of those characters great in their own ways, but having so many other characters to focus on in the main series means it could be real-world years until they finally get together. A dedicated series would let their relationship and individual character development advance way faster than just a cute moment whenever they show up together in the main series. Don't get me wrong though, that little 2-panel scene of them at the end of issue #31 of the main series is a fucking gift in itself.

    Otherwise, the authors' real names are Bertrand Marceau (for Mister B.) and Thierry Smolderen (for Smoldo).
    And fun fact : in the french original version, Tails speaks with a lisp !

    10:40 Milton Knight didn’t make any of the other model sheets for AoStH actually
    As far as I know he only really did some storyboards and the design for Robotnik, Sonics design was done by Ed Love and Kent Butterworth
    Milton is pretty commonly over-praised for his work on AoStH, which is ironic considering even he kinda wants to move away from it as “just a summer job”

    It does suck when story lines get unresolved... heck UK Sonic comic creators were making a Sparkster comic which was super fucking cool then Konami went "Oh no the fuck you ain't. You stopping this unlicensed comic right now."
    As cringe as this series is, it's just fun to see the crazy shit the writers and artists can do (or get away with) I'm glad Ken Penders got the boot because that man is a crate full of trouble.

    A more accurate title would've been _"The Many Comics of Sonic the Hedgehog"..._ but that wouldn't have been as clickbaity, which in turn would mean I would've never watched this wonderful video, so I guess you actually did the right thing by naming it this way. 😅

    I gotta say despite hearing about this comic for the first time, I have still heard of most of the comics.

    I used to buy those comics at like a import shop , I can’t find them anymore , I also remember seeing the sonic manga I considered buying it but didn’t, but don’t worry I still have a healthy amount of Archie comics

      Before you ask no I didn’t read them I just looked at the pictures and made a story with them

    You know It’s pretty interesting that there’s a sonic X comic, 2 sonic mangas, and sonic universe comic

    I know I was born way after the release of this comics but I'm pretty sure that even in the french sonic youtubers they never talked about it. I mean they are not as vig as americans sonic youtubers and don't talk a lot about sonic comics in general but still , as a french fan of sonic I was surprised to had never heard of it before

    I'm french and I had no idea that existed. Well, I'm not exactly a Sonic fan per se, so yeah makes sense.
    It looks pretty though, I'm surprised.

    I sure love "Teals". Can't get enough of the three-tailed, turquoise kitsune.

    Don't forget the comic included with the Sonic movie DVD. Even the second movie ended up getting one.
