IDW have released more upcoming goodies, and Sonic has a couple of new titles announced! Firstly, opening out next year, Sonic the Hedgehog #37 has a solicit for a brand new story. After resolving the problem in Eggman’s base, Tangle is on a mission to initiate new girl Belle into the restoration team. But when Sonic, Tails and Amy investigate a mysterious tower that seems to have come from nowhere, they may be put through trials much sooner than they thought! This is “Test Run”.

In addition, there’s something coming for both established IDW Sonic fans and those who want a convenient way of getting into the series. Sonic the Hedgehog is joining its collection line with The IDW Collection: Sonic the Hedgehog Volume 1.
This book will collect issues 1 – 12 in an oversized hardcover format, perfect for any library! Future volumes will encompass the annuals and miniseries as well, presenting them in the most ideal reading order. As of writing, the book is slated for release June 8th 2021, so it’s going to be a while before it hits the shelves.
As always, we will have more information on both of these closer to the time of their release. In the meantime, keep an eye out for more news and previews on the comic!

This cover is absolutely epic! I’m actually surprised this isn’t Cover A.
Also I seriously hoping Blaze is at the forefront of this arc (as the cover may suggest), she’s been neglected so much in the comics, not only in IDW but at Archie as well.
I just now noticed that atleast three special/bonus stages from the games are seen in the issue 37 cover, the Sonic 3 one (bottom), Sonic CD on the left (where Metal Sonic is) and one on mid-left (where the Chaotix are), not sure which one the last one is but I wanna say possibly from Sonic Heroes.
The first twelve issues getting a collection is nice, it would be great if the Sonic the Comic series got an official collected release someday…
