Got this as a FREEBIE on the ARCHIE COMICS app. I'm glad it was FREE, since I definitely would NOT have PAID for THIS one.

Very unimpressive. Both the STORIES and the ART leave much to be desired.

2.5*

So this is the actually first issue in the series. Number zero. It's the first appearance for most of the freedom fighter and how it all started. I like how light the story is, the jokes even the art is cute. Totally loved it.

I'm on issue #45 of the Archie run of Sonic, so it was really, really nice to jump back to the early art and the more slapstick storylines. I've really missed seeing this part of Sonic, so it was a real treat. In the end, I'm glad I saved this. There's another Sonic mini series that I look forward to reading when I'm completely done!

This will be the second time jumping into Archie Sonic

I read them originally when I was young and obsessed with the blue blur, but I think I only made it past 50 issues or so.

Anyway, I never actually read this Mini series at the time, but it's super charming compared to what will come later

This is only issue 0, but it's already done a good job introducing the world.

slay gonna read all of the sonic comics this was nice. just gave a little backstory nothing too big. tails looks so ugly idk who the fuck sally acorn is but shes cool ig

This is a good read. A little simple as well as slapstick, but It does a good job at introducing us to sonics world.

Why is Sally blonde? Cute but not much going on at all lol. Very slapstick. Sonic being a delivery boy makes total sense though.

It's an easy to follow and very funny first issue, which cleverly combines humour and silliness with some dark undertones and situations. It's nice to see how authors decided to push for the environmental themes which are apparent in the games even from that era. Dr. Robotnik works great as an image of the ruthless and uncontrolled industrialization. Sonic's design is a little weird in this one (his spikes look as flat as paper to me), but overall characters are pretty well designed and drawn, the new Dr. Robotnik is pretty fearsome. All in all, it's a fun and educational read for kids, but even I had a few chuckles while reading this. I finished the issue with a smile on my face and it was a nice relief from other "dark and gritty" stories.
