Believe it or not, Sonic the Hedgehog has been a comics mainstay for two solid decades. Twenty years! And the fleet-footed erinaceinae has yet to miss a step in his pursuit of gold rings and chaos emeralds or his fight for freedom. Next week, Archie Comics celebrates with a collection of Sonic milestones, and given the sheer number of miles he’s clocked, there was a lot to pick from. But don’t wave that checkered flag just yet. Plenty more adventures still to come.

The Sonic the Hedgehog comic is absurdly good, Ian Flynn is the unsung hero of true All Ages storytelling.
Sonic played a way bigger role than I’d care to admit in getting me into comics. There was a period between issues 45 and 100 when it was just way, way better than it had any right to be. (Of course, I was like 9, so it might not have been as good as it seemed.)
