Publisher’s description

The countdown to the milestone 175th issue kicks off in royal style. In recent battles, Sonic and the Freedom Fighters have suffered some devastating losses, but how can they possibly withstand much more? As the King lies at death's door, Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails go to the farthest reaches of the universe on a mission to save the day. Can anyone prepare them for the surprises they find there? Not to mention the new threat of diabolical tyrant Robotnik and the mysterious Shadow joining forces! Will evil rule the day, or will this new alliance simply pit Shadow and Eggman at each other's throats? "Island of Misfit Badniks": In a story inspired as supplemental to the new Sonic Archives paperback reprint series, original series writer Mike Gallagher and artist Dave Manak finally explain what happened to all of Robotnik's old robots and Badniks and inadvertently re-awaken some of the deadliest villains from Sonic's early days, a mistake that may spell out Sonic's doom! Sonic and tails regained on chaos emerald to revive King acorn. The Prower family has reformed. Sonic faces the remains robotic empire and finally meets Psudosonic
