SONIC BOOM #1
Today, Archie Comics made official through IGN news that broke overnight: A Sonic Boom comic line will be produced by the company. Ian Flynn will serve as the series’s main writer, adding to duties that include the main Sonic comic, Sonic Universe, and the Mega Man series. All those arcs will continue under Flynn’s direction unaffected.
More is slated to be revealed at the San Diego Comic Con panel a week from Sunday. But in an interview IGN conducted with editor Paul Kaminski and Flynn, it’s noted Sticks will be included in the series, while there will still be short and long-term arcs, it’s meant more for casual reading.
The emphasis for this series is centered squarely on FUN. Lots of stand-alone adventure, but with some over-arching stuff going on from issue to issue that builds up to some REALLY awesome happenings a little later on down the line. The first story arc sets the stage, shows you Sonic’s world, and introduces you to the heroes and villains, all while kicking the action and antics WAY up!
