Sonic The Hedgehog #67

ComicBook.com

Surge and Kit, the villainous duo modeled upon Sonic and Tails by Doctor Starline, have been a highlight of the current incarnation of Sonic the Hedgehog. Although they mirror the series' most significant duo, they bring unique personalities and power sets to the table that make them exciting to witness in battle and plenty humorous in their banter. So their unexpected arrival at the Restoration results in a surprisingly peaceful and very entertaining issue. As the pair are brought into the fold and given a grand tour, it provides both a clear sense of the series' ethos and an outstanding array of expressive character work offering both abundant tension and big laughs. Each new introduction or re-telling of an old story serves a purpose and it's difficult not to admire the utopian sensibilities on display. Sonic the Hedgehog #67 offers enough in its dialogue and character work that readers likely won't even notice that it only stages future action; that's a testament to the excellent character work in each panel and dialogue in each word balloon.
