The long-running Sonic the Hedgehog comic series by IDW has hit a significant milestone with the release of its 75th issue. Sonic the Hedgehog #75 marked the epic conclusion of the battle between Team Sonic and the nefarious Clutch, setting the stage for the suspenseful follow-up story arc, "Scattered Pieces." This compelling storyline will unfold across issues #76-80, with issue #76 already available in stores.
IGN is thrilled to exclusively showcase new art from the penultimate chapter of "Scattered Pieces" during IGN Fan Fest. Dive into the slideshow gallery below to explore the three captivating covers for Sonic the Hedgehog #79, along with the previously unveiled "Scattered Pieces" covers.
The "Scattered Pieces" saga is penned by the series' mainstay, Ian Flynn. Sonic the Hedgehog #79 boasts interior art and a main cover crafted by Adam Bryce Thomas, complemented by variant covers from the talented Tyler Mcgrath and Nathalie Fourdraine.
Here's the official synopsis for Sonic the Hedgehog #79 from IDW:
The long-running feud between ace sniper Whisper and sinister assassin Mimic is coming to a climactic showdown!
Only one of these former comrades will walk away! Can Tangle and Silver help turn the tide of battle? Or will Whisper suffer another friend getting caught in the crossfire? It’s a thrilling battle years in the making!
Ian Flynn shared his excitement with IGN, stating, "IDW’s Sonic the Hedgehog has been going strong for seven years now, and in that time has cultivated a number of storylines, characters and narrative elements it can call its own. A lot of those all came to a head in Evan Stanley’s latest arc. Reaching a story’s climax is always fun, but I’m also just as eager to explore the follow-up. There will be a lot of fans asking 'What happens next?' My arc gets to answer that, bring a few conclusions of my own, and set the stage for Evan’s next major arc with the series."
Sonic the Hedgehog #76 is currently available in stores, and fans can look forward to issue #77, set to be released on March 19. Preorder your copy at your local comic shop by clicking here to find the nearest location.
