Get ready for round 2 of the one-off fighting face-offs!
There’s another book on the horizon for Worlds Unite, and Comic Book Resources has an early preview for it. Sonic: Worlds Unite Battles #1 covers three more fights that just didn’t have space to be featured in the main comic pages. First off, Sticks confronts her mortal enemy the broom…and there’s Roll with it too! Then, Knuckles is forced to fend off Break Man after he’s controlled with deadly intent! Finally, you can see how Sonic fared against the Deadly other three of Six during his capture back in the first issue! Like the Mega Man counterpart, this book features a slew of veteran talent and fresh blood at the helm!

SONIC: WORLDS UNITE BATTLES #1
ALL-NEW DIRECT MARKET-EXCLUSIVE special! There are so many epic battles in the SONIC/MEGA MAN crossover event that the biggest brawls of the bunch have exploded into their very own book! Twelve issues just isn’t enough to contain all the frantic action of “Worlds Unite!” The action spills over into this second special stand-alone issue where an all-star cast of creators bring you an extraordinary all-action issue! Watch as Sonic battles the Deadly Six, Knuckles throws down with Break Man, and Sticks… goes after Roll?! LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Also featuring variant cover art from Roger and Idalia Robinson, and a special wrap-around sketch variant by Sonic and Mega Man superstars Evan Stanley & Jamal Peppers!
Sonic: Worlds Unite Battles isn’t due to be released until July 15th, which is nearly two weeks from now. That gives you plenty of time to train for going down to the store, as it is exclusive to the direct market.

lol! Get your foot off Rolls head 😛
If you mean from the cover I think Sonic’s foot is actually on Zavok’s other horn.
The art in this one looks substantially better than the art in the Mega Man edition!
This is the most interesting thing to happen in Worlds Unite so far. At least in my opinion.
I’ve never been too into Archie comics, but segments like this really prove how great they’ve been lately. I seriously appreciate this crossover and the FANTASTIC character interaction. 😀 They also have used the Zeti in a really menacing way. Literally, I love seeing the previews for this comic.
Sticks is after the broom, right?
That.. Actually makes a lot of sense.
