Halloween comic countdown #1
Like every day that has free comic books Sonic is the one I want the most.
1 - SONIC LOST WORLD
2 - CARTOON NETWORK SUPER SAMPLER
3 - MY LITTLE PONY HALLOWEEN EDITION
4 - ADVENTURE TIME
5 - UZUMAKI
6 - BATMAN THE LONG HALLOWEEN #1
7 - PANTALONES TX ZOMBINATA
Of course it's a Sonic comic as my number 1. Reprint or not even a story, I will pick the Blue Blur above all. I've been a fan for what some say to be too many years and I still love it in one way or another. Given the story in this issue I hope there will be some extras like pin-ups or up-to-date data files.
This is a sort of reprint. It's a story prequel to the new Sonic game Sonic Lost World for the Nintendo's WiiU & 3DS. It was going to premiere in the Sonic Super Special magazine #9 but this comes out a few weeks before that. The art looks great from the preview and giving that the story takes place before the game there could be some fun things here that won't be seen or made clear in the game.
I have high hopes for this comic since most of the other comics are reprints in a way but this will be way fresher than those. This issue is at a great price of course and will pad out a Sonic comic set or gifted with the game very well. This is a comic for Sonic fans of the comic or game for sure.Give this a read so you don't have to pay the $10 for the magazine if that's what you're after in it

Join the brigade
The Sonic The Hedgehog and Mega Man is well on it's way with part 4 that came out this week. Mega Man #25 also marks the end of the first act of the 12 part story. The first 4 parts can be easily found in comic shop, book store, or online applications with 8 more issue on the way. After the story line is complete all issue will be available in trade paperback. I'm taking the pledge and spreading the word too.
I, webfox100, do solemnly swear, to spread the word of the Sonic/Mega Man crossover, until everyone in the entire world knows of the awesomeness that is "Worlds Collide," or until Dr. Eggman and Dr. Wily take over the world with their dastardly schemes and outlaw reading.
A MEGA week
Mega Man #25 - ARCHIE COMICS |

Free comic countdown #1


1 - SONIC THE HEDGEHOG MEGA MAN FLIPBOOK

2 - WALKING DEAD SPECIAL
3 - KABOOM SUMMER BLAST
4 - DC NATION SUPER SAMPLER #1
5 - ATOMIC ROBO & FRIENDS
6 - DH STAR WARS CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT AVATAR
7 - DRAGON BALL & RUROUNI KENSHIN RESTORATION

Of course it's a Sonic comic that would be my number 1. Sonic The Hedgehog is my favorite thing. Every month I look forward to the 2 different Sonic comics and when Free Comic Book Day comes I drool over the limit free issue. Like every year this issue is special but in a different way from the others.
This year Sonic's comic it a flip book with Mega Man. This is Mega Man's second year at Free Comic Book Day, last year was a reprint of the first issue. I love Sonic in many forms but Mega Man not so much. I played some Mega Man/X/Legends games and it's Legends that I liked the most. Classic MM games are too hard for me and X has a story I don't fully understand. MM had a few cartoons but the first one that was showed in the USA was very good. MM had many comics and manga but it's the Archie series that has a story that sticks to the game's stories while giving the characters, settings, and other factors more life. The art looks amazing as you look at it you can see the comic would look great as a 2D HD update of the games. The comic has been printing for 2 years now by the same artist and writers of the Sonic The Hedgehog comic.
Sonic The Hedgehog has had his comic printing in USA for 20 years now. The longest running comic based on a video game with more than 1 other side Sonic series being printed at the same time. It's the STH comics got made me in to a Sonic fan. This is STH's seventh year being in Free Comic Book Day and like past years the topic of the free issue is involved with the STH story line.
This year is the first time crossover of Sonic & Mega Man in any form. As I type this part 3 of the 12 part story is now on stands for pick up. This flip book is called a part 0 for the crossover. From what is shown in the preview pages this issue reprints parts of the STH & MM issues right before the crossover. This makes since to me but like always I hoped there was more. Maybe there could be in it. Fans who've been following the stories of the 2 comic won't need this issue and I don't think it will help new fan to get in to the stories. Being a STH comic with a bonus MM story I am getting this one for sure. I hope that there's more than just reprints in it.
Happy Free Comic Book Day everyone!

Sonic is better than Spiderman!
*Spoiler Warning*
Sonic #149
*Spoiler Warning*
After reading Sonic #225 I've been going through my head thinking about the shock ending(after recovering from the shock). I came across some of the same points that are in both Sonic #225 and Spiderman: One More Day.
1) The ball and chain: Sonic and Sally have finally got back together after nearly 100 issues of being broken up. Unlike Spiderman and Mary Jane, Sonic and Sally work amazingly as a team so there is no reason for them to be broken up again.
2) Pain of love: In issue 225 Sally is killed by Eggman with a machine gun. A far better way to get rid of a love interest than having the lovers walk past each other pretending nothing has happened in their past. Sally getting shot makes a lot more sense than Aunt May who should have died awhile ago.
3) Real evil: Unlike the devil in Marvel comics, Eggman is an evil and scary villain that has in many occasions won battles agents the heroes of the world. Even when Eggman isn't on the page he is talked about of what he may do next.
4) Reset: The new world in Sonic is going to be Sonic having adventures from the games Sonic 1&2 for a little while then things are going to be more or less normal after that. The readers knew the change was coming, how long it may last, and that things will return to normal with some differences.
5) Magic ≠ Science: In Marvel for the devil to change the timeline he had to just wink and smile, where as in Sonic Eggman had to take his time to prepare. After having his city destroyed Eggman lost nearly everything, so he had to pour his remaining resources in to his last standing base with lots of hidden halls and rooms. While making his ultimate weapon he lost his mind for a while, when he became sane again Eggman have a new outlook on his grand plan. After many issues of construction, finally getting a rare limitless power, and using an army of slaves to send supplies to him the ultimate weapon Death Egg launches to the horror of everyone that it was built in front of them the whole time. With time, planing, and effort is how an evil genius makes things go the way he wants.
6) Can't touch this: Before Eggman pushes the big red button of doom a nemesis of his who also has a rare limitless power to use magic to stop Eggman, but has no effect thank to magic proof hull. Unlike Marvel where some hocuss pocus can change anything, in Sonic's world magic has its limits. So the line "a wizard did it" can't be use for plot holes that are lying around.
7) Cloning clone saga: Sonic also had his own clone trouble that was handled better. In Sonic X #25 Sonic had to deal with a hand full of clones for just the one issue. Unlike Spiderman, Sonic's clones were just like him but a different color each(not counting the last one)so they weren't as crazy as Spiderman's clones. Sonic's clones were made by a group with the smarts, resources, locations, and time to do it. The best part about Sonic's clone saga is that it only lasted the one issue where as Spidermans took years and still doesn't make sense.
