Yes, that's right, the third and final of the 90s Sonic cartoons is to be revisited in the pages of Archie Comics.
The show featured Sonic battling Dr. Robotnik with the help of his twin siblings Manic and Sonia. Over the course of the series, they utlizied their powerful musical instruments to stir up not only trouble, but a catchy (or irritatingly infectious) song and dance routine, all while on a quest to find their mother (which they sorta do very quickly in the show, but for one reason or another, let her slip through their fingers), fulfill a prophecy and form the ruling council that will bring about a new Golden Age on Mobius!
The story will be written by Sonic's current top scribe Ian Flynn and will be published in Sonic Universe, beggining with Issue 50.
Hmm...I'm a bit mixed on Underground, some eps I like (like the Queen's near marraige to Robotnik, the Floating Island trilogy etc) but I could really do with less of the musical numbers. Still, bubbling beneath the surface of a corny show was a strong premise and I hope it gets fleshed out here. I'd love to know who Sonic, Manic and Sonia's father was and what happened to him.
(Eerily, Manic and Sonia are Sonic and Sally's kids in the controversial "Mobius Twenty-Five Years Later" continuity)

Zarius, you wouldn't happen to go on to Henshin Justice Unlimited, would you?

Now that was unexpected news!
I just got Sonic Universe #45 which features the alternate universe Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed adaptation, so it's nice that Archie will be using that title to tell some "Elseworlds" stories drawing from across Sonic lore.

Yeah I think this will just be a one shot issue that wraps Sonic Underground's series up. It's an interesting idea but I don't know if I care at all sense I didn't care for the show at all.

I've only seen one episode of this, about a year ago on like Disney XD or something, because they never aired it in my area. Some backwoods town in eastern Washington had it, but not us. Go figure.
When I saw it though I was weirded out that Jaleel White voiced the brother and sister, too.

I'll be interested to see where the story goes. I enjoyed the cartoon minus the musical numbers. If you have Netflix they have the series on there.
