💨 SONIC THE HEDGEHOG (1993) MINI-SERIES #1 • VF/NM

“Run, Sally, Run / Something Fishy” | Newsstand Edition

Very Fine / Near Mint (VF/NM)

📖 Why This Issue Zooms

Sega’s fastest hedgehog hits the page in two high-octane stories:

1️⃣ “Run, Sally, Run” – Sally Acorn plans a tense meeting with Robotnik to negotiate her father’s release, but Sonic and friends fear treachery.
2️⃣ “Something Fishy” – Sonic plunges underwater to confront a mechanical fish wreaking havoc, testing his speed and smarts in a high-stakes aquatic chase.

Scripted by Michael Gallagher, pencils by Scott Shaw, and inks by Bill White, these stories perfectly capture the fun, fast-paced energy of the Sonic universe.

🎨 Cover Art Vibes

Pure early-’90s adrenaline and Saturday-morning menace. Sonic rockets forward mid-stride, clutching Princess Sally Acorn, stakes made literal as speed becomes protection. Behind them, a colossal Dr. Robotnik dominates the frame — steel, teeth, and tyrannical glee.

Thick inks, exaggerated expressions, and candy-bright Archie palette give the cover a punchy, kinetic feel: playful on the surface, ruthless underneath. Motion versus control, freedom versus mechanized rule.
