In comparison to the US comic its very good, artwork is fantastic and consistency with the game universe makes them a pleasure to read if you're a fan of the franchise. (i'm going to scan a double page spread for wallpaper soon, look for it in the OT wallpaper thread.)Originally Posted by DRussian
Granted they're a little childish to me today, but I loved them when I bought issue one when I was 8 in '93 and I still love them now.
I really hope you understand I wasn`t belittling the collection in any way and was generally curious. When I was in primary school everything I had was Sonic related, pencils, pencil case, binder, t-shirt everything. It`s all I used to draw (badly) too.
Can we get a grand total of the number of Issues please?

I never thought you were :icon_bigg
There's a base total of 216 issues. Also 4 Summer specials, 1 Knuckles based special. Also there's issue 0 which is the small one and then there's the very first Sonic Comic, which was released in UK and US flavours however I prefer to picture the latter as its more desirable and worth 10 times the amount of its couterpart, although I do have both.
Also pictured is the graphic novel 'spin attack' which is the first few issues all in one book, theres another like this too called 'beats the badniks' which is the next 6 issues (not pictured.)
Additionally in my UK collection (but not pictured) are 12 poster mags (many people think there are only 9) an Eternal Champions special, 3 sonic annuals, a Sonic Sticker album and a rugrats sticker album. If I can think of anything else I'll include it later. But as far as the UK collection goes thats absolutely everything, the only thing I don't have is many of the free gifts, but considering alot of them were edible there isn't much I can do about that.

Lol, I'm missing lots of little obvious (and relatively easy things to obtain) from my collection but over the past few years I have focused mainly on my comics and my car. My biggest problem is that I lose direction sometimes I want to focus entirely on Sonic literature and sometimes I aim for games or toys.
Once I get a bigger disposable income (which is nil at the moment) then I will look to expand.
Very nice collection, I remember buying and reading those comics years ago lol.
nice game collection, ahh, that 10th anniversary pack is awesome
Wow, being a comic fan myself it's nice to see a game related comic collection.
Got a question: In the first pic, third comic starting from the right, on the lower row, shows a character that looks a lot like Trident from Eternal Champions.
What was this, a review of the game or did they use characters from other games on Sonic stories? (it would be hard to imagine Sonic in the EC tournament, but well, after Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games anything's possible).
Ultimately It was a sega comic and had seperate stories for streets of rage, eternal champions, ecco the dolphin, shinobi, wonderboy, markos magic football, decap attack, Pirate TV, Kid Chameleon, rocket night adventures and captain plunder and mutant league. Maybe a few others but I haven't the time to check.

Nice collection - wow that comic set is really impressive! Must have taken a while to achieve - well done!
Ahh, you don't have something I have. In the early to mid 90s, WH Smith had a Sonic promotion, with giant Sonic displays in the windows. It was Sonic on a pink background, and Sonic was raised off the background. I have one of these. ;-)

Nice collection :)
I think I have the Asian Sonic 2 that you're missing, somewhere...
Stone
As of today all of it has gone.
Totally sold up. The only gaming device I have left is a Gameboy Colour. The only item I have left is the Sonic TecToy pin badge because my ex bought it for me and I can't bring myself to sell it.
My collecting days are over.
Damn! Sorry to hear that. I hope at least it has gone to a good home, and its sale has helped you out.
