The teams behind DC Comics and Sega have shared additional details about the impending crossover between “Sonic the Hedgehog” and “Justice League”, including the initial cover art and insights into how these two esteemed franchises will collaborate. Since the early 2020s, the “Sonic the Hedgehog” series has experienced a significant resurgence in popularity as Sega has been heavily investing in the Blue Blur’s image across numerous platforms, such as comics, video games, and live-action films. All of these ventures have garnered substantial interest and promotion. A major announcement made in 2024 was that the “Sonic” franchise would be teaming up with DC Comics’ “Justice League” next year.

Back in September 2024, during the Sonic Central livestream, Sega unveiled a new comic crossover featuring Sonic and the Justice League. The initial clue came from a brief animation where Shadow the Hedgehog assumed the role of Batman. Later on, at Sonic Central, the collaboration was officially confirmed. Furthermore, it was disclosed that Ian Flynn, a veteran writer for Sonic the Hedgehog, will be working on this series. DC Comics has shared additional details about this crossover.

According to ComicBook.com, artist Pablo M. Collar unveiled the main cover for the first issue, while also confirming that Adam Bryce Thomas, a veteran Sonic comic artist, would be handling the interior artwork. The image on the cover depicts Sonic and his companions charging into battle, with Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, Silver, Amy, Batman, Superman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg all present – characters who have been confirmed for this crossover event.
