This week, hey, remember that part in the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode Manos: The Hands of Fate where Tom Servo just loses it and shouts "do something!" at the screen? It's like that, but with a train robbery set piece.

This week, we finally hit a newly rebooted Sonic universe, and if you were worried that we wouldn't have any more mind-boggling scenarios or unanswered questions, then friend, I have some good news for you.

Well, I just got an email from Archie Comics with the words "Sonic's Cease and Desist" in it, so I can only assume that somehow, someone found the novella I've been writing about Chris the Hedgehog, Sonic's cool new friend who's way faster and is also best friends with Twenty One Pilots The Hedgehogs. And yes, I know that I shouldn't have printed and sold those for profit, but in my defense, I thought the best way to understand Sonic was to enter his world myself. So I guess we'll just pop open this email here and --- Oh. Oh, okay. It seems that "Sonic's Cease and Desist" is actually just the title of the next issue of Sonic The Hedgehog, out this week from Archie, which is a fun play on the fact that they're doing an adaptation of, and tribute, to the classic video game Sonic CD. So hey, why not check out a preview of that below and forget those things you just read that were definitely just comedy jokes!

This week, the Sonic/Mega Man crossover comes to its thundering conclusion, and everything goes back to normal. For Mega Man. Only for Mega Man.

With almost 300 issues in the core series, Archie's Sonic The Hedgehog stands as the longest-running uninterrupted American monthly comic book that's currently being published. In Hedging Your Bets, I attempt to get up to speed on Sonic the Hedgehog, challenging the odds to hopefully make it all the way to the finish line. This week, the Sonic/Mega Man crossover continues, with inside jokes, good guys turned bad, and the setup for the final act!

This week, the Sonic/Mega Man crossover begins, and it turns out that alternate dimensions and roboticized masters are easier to understand than the usual stuff.

For Sonic's 25th anniversary the good people over at Archie Comics are launching "Genesis of a Hero," a four-part saga with a retro style that hearkens back to the events of the Sega Genesis games. Check out a preview and get a look at the action yourself!

So remember how a couple weeks ago, I said that Sonic the Hedgehog continuity was so weird that you could pretty much tell me anything about it and I would have no reason to doubt you? Well buckle up, kids, because our friends at Archie just sent over a preview of their next paperback collection of Sonic stories, and it's a weird one. In this particular story, Sonic becomes a werewolf. Er, werehog? Werewolfhog? Listen, it's probably for the best if you just check out the preview below!
