Inside the Pages: Sonic #201

Loyal Archie comic readers are still reeling–it feels like yesterday that the two hundredth issue hit newsstands.  But already, there’s a new issue making its way to subscribers and comic book stores.
Sonic the Hedgehog #201 is the first major story after #200’s vanquish of Robotnik, written by Ian Flynn and drawn by Tracy Yardley.  The issue also focuses on Espio the Chameleon in a special side story.
Archie’s official description is below, and after that, you can take a look at the cover and the first five pages of the comic.

“Change in Management“: Sonic and his friends are ready to relax after the series-shaking events of #200, but their plans soon change with the explosive arrival of an old villain! A villain who brings grim tidings of a new threat that’s claimed the world! Who are the new faces of evil? Will Sonic rise to the occasion, or will he be busy fighting a mystery guest star? “Devotion“: Espio the Chameleon gets a visitor of his own, and news that will change his standing in the Chaotix forever!
