Sonic Who’s Who Encyclopedia Put on Hiatus After Increased SEGA Involvement

We finally got some word on the encyclopedia at today’s Archie panel, thanks to a question asked by our own TJ Selinka: apparently the Sonic Who’s Who Encyclopedia has been put on hiatus. SEGA of Japan really liked what they saw, and have decided to get more involved. No word yet on what changes may come, but the Who’s Who has already been reported as being at least an inch and a half thick. We’ll be interviewing Sonic editor Paul Kaminski later in the day, who will hopefully enlighten us. According to Archie Editor in Chief Mike Pellerito, “SEGA loves the book, and they are trying to figure out what to do with it.”

  1. Ask him if it’s mainly archie focused or if it’s going to be games focused.

    … .. … Ask him if they’ll list the number of times that Tommy the Turtle has died….

  2. Somehow that doesn’t sound like a good idea. Then again, I didn’t think trying to incorporate the storylines and characters from all the newer games was a great idea either, so I guess the damage is already done.

  3. I will keep my eyes peeled for it 🙂 Also,has anyone been getting re-directed to adds?I have :/ that’s new for this site…

  4. Well, I’m definitely willing to wait if it means major improvements on the encyclopedia. An inch and a half thick? Thats gotta be around 300-400 pages long.
