IDW's Sonic the Hedgehog Series Begins the 'Road to #100' - Fall FanFest 2006

In 2027, IDW Publishing will commemorate a significant milestone as the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series reaches issue #100. The publisher has already unveiled the "Road to #100" promotion, setting the stage for a series of upcoming developments. This initiative kicks off with issue #94, which introduces a new storyline centered around characters Surge and Kit. IGN has the exclusive opportunity to reveal the cover art for this issue, set to be penned by Daniel Barnes and Evan Stanley, and illustrated by Alex Forrest.

Sonic the Hedgehog #94 delves into a world where the desert frontier town of Pinfall Prairie resolves conflicts through wrestling matches. Surge has rapidly climbed the ranks, supported by Kit, but their comfortable existence is disrupted when the town's leader, Mama Stinkerton, reveals a sinister secret. Surge and Kit must now decide whether to maintain their lives as fighters or become genuine heroes. This mini arc marks the beginning of the "Road to #100."

The next installment of this milestone journey, issue #91, is also previewed in the slideshow gallery. Fans can pre-order both books at their local comic shop. In addition to this milestone celebration, IDW is preparing for the first major crossover event of the Kai-Sei line, Godzilla Versus Everything. Furthermore, IDW has announced that Grant Morrison will be writing a new James Bond comic, further expanding their diverse lineup of projects.

IGN's Jesse highlights these exciting announcements, inviting readers to follow him on BlueSky for more insights.
