Sonic's Future: IDW Unveils Dramatic New Series at IGN Fan Fest 2025
May 25,2025Author: Christopher
IDW's acclaimed Sonic the Hedgehog comic series has hit a significant milestone with the release of its 75th issue, culminating in an epic showdown between Team Sonic and the nefarious Clutch. The aftermath of this battle sets the stage for a gripping new storyline titled "Scattered Pieces," which will unfold across issues #76-80. With issue #76 already available in stores, IGN is thrilled to offer an exclusive first look at new artwork from the near-final chapter of this thrilling arc during IGN Fan Fest. Dive into the slideshow gallery below to explore the three captivating covers for Sonic the Hedgehog #79, alongside the previously unveiled "Scattered Pieces" covers.
Penned by the series' mainstay writer Ian Flynn, Sonic the Hedgehog #79 boasts interior art and a main cover by Adam Bryce Thomas, complemented by variant covers crafted by Tyler Mcgrath and Nathalie Fourdraine. Here's a sneak peek into what fans can expect, as described by IDW:
The long-running feud between ace sniper Whisper and sinister assassin Mimic is coming to a climactic showdown!
Only one of these former comrades will walk away! Can Tangle and Silver help turn the tide of battle? Or will Whisper suffer another friend getting caught in the crossfire? It’s a thrilling battle years in the making!
Ian Flynn shared his insights with IGN, stating, "IDW’s Sonic the Hedgehog has been going strong for seven years now, and in that time has cultivated a number of storylines, characters, and narrative elements it can call its own. A lot of those all came to a head in Evan Stanley’s latest arc. Reaching a story’s climax is always fun, but I’m also just as eager to explore the follow-up. There will be a lot of fans asking 'What happens next?' My arc gets to answer that, bring a few conclusions of my own, and set the stage for Evan’s next major arc with the series."
Sonic the Hedgehog #76 is currently available in stores, and fans can mark their calendars for the release of issue #77 on March 19. Preorder your copy at your nearest comic shop by clicking here to find your local retailer.
In addition to the Sonic excitement, IGN Fan Fest 2025 also provided an early glimpse into IDW's new Godzilla shared universe, promising more thrilling adventures in the world of comics.
