I read this title and immediately though that they changed the upcoming Life With Archie special so that Archie was going to die via Falcon Punch.

I gotta lay off the hooch at night.

Holy sh#@, I only knew archie from those comic strips in newspapers I read when I was little.
Holy sh#@, newspapers don't even exist anymore.

do we have any details for these comics yet or no?
Well, these are variant covers, which are special covers you have to buy. Mega Man will focus on his battle against Gemini Man, Sonic will be about Werehog and Mighty, and Sonic Universe will be about Shadow and Knuckles fighting Eclipse, a black arms version of Shadow. All are written by Ian Flynn and will be released in October, the month the 3ds version comes out.

It's pretty interesting, actually. Archie and the gang go all the way back to the 40s. He's older than most superheroes!

As for these covers, that's pretty nifty., I used to subscribe to the Sonic comics. I was in second grade when they started, and I canceled my subscription in 12th, since I stopped reading them. So I think I have the first 150 issues or something like that tucked away in a box somewhere. I keep forgetting they exist, or that Mega Man has one now, too.

oh so it's only the art is just a little influenced by smash, well I guess thats fine. I recently been getting into their comics so I thought they were doing an actually story based off of smash with the Archie Sonic and Megaman... oh well XD
