Book Description

Series: Sonic Select Series

Introducing a new series of Sonic collections reprinting many of the much-loved stories from the Sonic Super Specials! The best of the best will be featured in this series, including stories starring fan-favorites Knuckles the Echidna, Miles "Tails" Prower, and Princess Sally Acorn, plus characters who don't often get to hit center stage in the main series. Not only that, but Sonic Select will also be filled with everything from both the classic era of Sonic super-team Mike Gallagher and Dave Manak, to the later stories with varying artwork from such Sonic legends as Art Mawhinney, Patrick "Spaz" Spaziante, Steven Butler, Ken Penders, and others! With reprints from Sonic: In Your Face, Sonic & Knuckles, Triple Trouble, and Sonic Live!, this is one Sonic compilation no fan of the Hedgehog will want to miss! Super-terrific cover by Patrick "Spaz" Spaziante!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any Sonic the Hedgehog fanatic!, August 21, 2008

Have you missed any old Sonic the Hedgehog specials or miniseries? Or want to have an extra copy to read? Then this is the book for you! I have literally hundreds of Sonic the Hedgehog comic books and I don't read my old comics for fear of damaging them, so when the good people at Archie Publications decided to create a collection of Sonic's adventures in small graphic novels, I was most jubliant! Never again would I have to remember the good old times when I can relive them in these beautifully designed books!

The Sonic Select Series of graphic novels contains every Sonic the Hedgehog special and miniseries ever created by Archie comics! So don't fret if you don't have that issue where Super Sonic and Hyper Knuckles duke it out or you can't find that pesky 'Princess Sally' miniseries. Archie's gout to covered.

The cover art for 'Sonic Select Volume One' is by Sonic the Hedgehog comic veteran Pat 'The Spaz' Spaziante and contains the Sonic specials "Sonic the Hedgehog: In Your Face!", "Sonic & Knuckles" and "Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble".

I am a Sonic the Hedgehog comic collector, and when I saw this book, I knew I had to have it. The comics are printed in color on quality paper, and even include the original cover pages of each included comic issue, something sorely left out in many comic collections of other titles. There's also plenty of Knuckles action, for those fans who are wondering. Even Princess Sally Acorn gets a great story. The quality of the book is great, allowing for a long, happy life. This edition should not be missed by any Sonic (or Knuckles!) fan.

My daughter who is 9-1/2 years old loves this book a lot. This is the first Sonic book she has read...she said that it is an "awesome book because it has some of my favorite Sonic characters from the movies".
