It has been over a year since we last did a “First Look” for an upcoming Sonic comic. Now, with the monthly solicitations for IDW Sonic issues finally underway, they return! And, as you can see by the info on IDW Sonic #5, Eggman is returning too:

  1. The Chaotix with Vector and company make their IDW debut in Sonic IDW series #5! And I thought Eggman would debut in the first 4 IDW Sonic issues! Though still waiting in the wings for IDW Sonic debuts in the months to come are: Rogue the Bat, Shadow, Silver, Cream the Rabbit, Sticks the Badger, Mighty the Armadillo, Ray the Squirrel, Big the Cat, Vanilla the Rabbit, Chip, and – maybe – the Freedom Fighters (including my all time Sonic fave who I am still desperate to see make her IDW Sonic debut if IDW and Sega agree – Sally Acorn! – the Freedom Fighters are still on stay tuned notice since the October 2017 New York Comic-Con IDW Sonic Town Hall panel!)

      1. It’s not. It’s a brand new continuity, y’all. They’ve already confirmed it multiple times.

        It will have ZERO ties with the Archie comics. It’s a clean slate.

        I love Sally and the Freedom Fighters too. Hell, I grew up with SatAM. But, a completely fresh start really is the best thing that could’ve happened to these comics. And I say that as a HUGE fan of Ian’s Archie run.

      2. But you’ll never know, IDW and Sega have yet to approve the Freedom Fighters – even Sally Acorn!

    2. “the Freedom Fighters are still on” this is fake nonsense, this site really should tolerate this as people look at things like this and just start spreading it around like it’s gospe when the poster is just pulling it outta their behind.

        1. Who you talking to, us?

          Calm down and let IDW and Sega agree on the Freedom Fighter fate.

          Also: I forgot to mention Nack the Weasel a/k/a Fang also waiting in the IDW Sonic wings.

          1. SSJ, Chaos, and SSF: Let’s all chill out and calm down, it will be a not to while or something like that when IDW and Sega (with or without Ian’s help) will agree on using in IDW Sonic the Freedom Fighters. Still on STAY TUNED notice…

        1. Even to all of us on if IDW and Sega approve to have in IDW Sonic Sally Acorn and the Freedom Fighters?

        2. Would it be that bad to tell him not to make up fake rumors in the comments? Fake rumors get spread around in this community way too easily, I still see people acting like a Heroes remake is coming.

          @Chaos Controller
          You tell me that before him,that’s hysterical.

          1. It wasn’t even a “fake rumor”. There’s still room to argue that the Freedom Fighters could still show up.

            You guys need to stop overreacting to every single thing DTH says. I’m tired of saying this.

          2. Thanx for the tip, SSF1991.

            At least The Freedom Fighters still have a chance to show up in IDW Sonic before 2018 is over more or less…

      3. Look, I don’t care about fake nonsense, let IDW and Sega agree on the Freedom Fighters fate for IDW Sonic.

        …and I’ll calm down as always…peace?

        1. You clearly do as you posted some unless you have a concrete source that the freedom fighters are still on. And no your schrödinger’s cat logic about it doesn’t count.
