It's Make-or-Break Time for the guardian of Angel Island as the fate of the Master Emerald and his home rest on the showdown between Might and Magic. And Knuckles has already did the "breaking" part which started this mess, which means...

The biggest bad in Sonic history has finally reared its [literally] ugly head, and Sonic and Chip must face it in the final battle for the fate of the planet. THE SHATTERED WORLD CRISIS ENDS HERE!

Eggman's Dozen ends with an unexpected battle between machine and master. Find out who the machine is in the spoilers. Cover Variants:

It looks like the Freedom Fighters are ready to end the Shattered World Crisis once and for all. And there is a hint that a "certain young rabbit will finally have a chance to shine.

Looks like taking back the base is going to be a little more difficult than our favorite conqueror has thought...

Sound the trumpets, because you knew it was coming. Three Words: DARK. PHOENIX. RISING!    

This one is a real doozy! Eggman calls in his Egg Bosses to take care of a certain pair of stubborn wizards. And you'll never guess who shows up! Some old, some new, some you've already seen, and a couple that have been much talked about!  

We welcome another old friend to the new universe as our heroes head on over to Chun-nan!  

The World Adventure continues in #277 as an old ally officially debuts in the new universe (Hit the spoiler button for details)!

http://archiecomics.stores.yahoo.net/worlds-unite.html   So like the previous crossover, it's going to be 12 issues. And with 4 series involved, it will be a span of around 3 months (Compared to 4 months last time with just StH, SU, and MM).   Now the only question is how an interaction of up to four worlds fit into this amount.

The Mega Man 3 adaptation reaches its epic conclusion. How will this end and, more importantly, why is this count down to '2' before Worlds Unite while all three Sonic comics countdown to '1'?

Sonic Boom heads to the finish line before joining Universe, Mega Man and the main Sonic series for thier big crossover event!

Worlds Unite is almost upon us... just as we're finally making progress on the Unleashed story.    

Before the second Sonic/Megaman crossover begins, the SU spin-off series will celebrate its 75th issue with not one, not two, not even three, but "7.5" variant covers!!!     You can check out the covers here!  

I love what they did with the variant cover here!

On a related note, Ian Flynn said that the origin of Nicole will not be based off of the late Ben Hurst's notes. Judging by part of the cover, it may go along the 'Astro Boy' route based on guesses from other posters from various forums.

After reading 264, I noticed something that flew over my head the first time. So now we have a good idea of what she actually looks like. The main story itself definitely sets things up for the main event next month. I'm hoping for some slight distrust for Sonic after, since he's been hiding his... condition up until now. The backup wasn't... bad, per se. But seeing Bunnie being too worryful over Antoine was definitely out of place, a main problem here, especially since the "old world" memories from the Countdown to Chaos story no longer exist/matter.

Sorry. Fixed so it's just the main comic solicit.

Epic news for the new year! The Fighters Arc begins with the premeire of two female characters from their own respective Sonic media: The much anticipated Honey from Sonic the Fighters and Fighting Vipers, and [a redesigned] Breezie of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog fame (Whether she's real or robot is anyone's guess). More Sonic and other Archie-related solicitations found here: http://www.comicvine.com/articles/archie-comics-december-2014-solicitations/1100-149862/

Based on the last panel alone, she looks almost mouse/rat-like (I'm not sure why I thought that. Earlier, I thought she would look like a cat). Her name might mean that she has some sort of electric powers. And based on the way she spoke, I would guess she might have Rosy the Rascal's personality: Cheery, but malaciously crazy. The solocitation for the next issue may indicate that she's going to be the cause of Sonic's Werehog transformation, which would be triggered by one of two things: 1) She might be capable of almost killing Sonic and/or his friends, making the transformation a survival instinct. or 2) She might threaten the lives of Sonic's friends, making him just angry enough to transform. But now I'm just rambling. I can't believe we have a whole month just to speculate.
