SEGA and DC Comics are set to make waves in the comic book world with the highly anticipated Sonic the Hedgehog and DC Comics crossover series, officially debuting on March 19, 2025.
This landmark partnership brings together two cultural icons—Sonic’s high-energy crew and the legendary superheroes of the DC universe—for a limited comic series celebrating both franchises’ storied legacies.
The announcement follows last year’s Batman Day festivities, where SEGA and DC Comics surprised fans by unveiling their ambitious collaboration.
To give readers a glimpse of the crossover’s unique style, the newly revealed first issue covers feature dynamic artwork highlighting Sonic and his friends alongside classic DC heroes such as Wonder Woman and The Flash.
The main cover is illustrated by Pablo M.
Collar, known for his work with major publishers like DC and Marvel, while the variant ‘B’ cover is created by acclaimed artist Ethan Young, who boasts a portfolio that includes Marvel, Transformers, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Each character in the beloved Sonic universe is reimagined as a DC icon: Shadow stars as Batman, Sonic speeds as The Flash, Silver lights up as Green Lantern, Amy wields strength as Wonder Woman, Knuckles soars as Superman, and Tails equips cybernetics as Cyborg.
The series is penned by veteran Sonic writer Ian Flynn, ensuring authentic character portrayals and fast-paced storytelling that both Sonic and DC fans have come to expect.
The Sonic x DC crossover will roll out as a monthly comic series, with each issue delivering new adventures and surprises.
This partnership is also expected to extend beyond the comics, with a collector’s edition planned that will combine the entire run, plus exclusive merchandise—including toys and accessories—launching in Fall 2025.
SEGA of America has confirmed that the celebration of both universes will continue into 2026, signaling a long-term commitment to this creative alliance.
In addition to the comic crossover, SEGA recently released the announcement trailer for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, marking an exciting week for Sonic fans on all platforms, including the Nintendo Switch and eShop.
With SEGA and DC Comics at the helm, this crossover series is shaping up to be a must-read event for collectors and gaming enthusiasts alike.
The debut issue of the Sonic and DC Comics crossover series will hit shelves on March 19, 2025, available through comic retailers and digital platforms.
Stay tuned for further updates and exclusive insights as SEGA and DC Comics unite for one of the year’s most anticipated collaborations.
