Here are the April solicts.

(W) Ian Flynn (A) Terry Austin & Various (CA) Tracy Yardley
'Cry Freedom!' The Freedom Fighters are no more. Dr. Eggman moves on to terrorize a Mobius unopposed. King Naugus rules through a campaign of fear. But Sonic isn't about to let all that stop him! A new era is about to begin as two new teams burst onto the scene to save the world! The future begins today in this great jumping-on-point issue!

"(W) Ian Flynn (A/CA) Jamal Peppers & Various
'Scrambled,' Part 3. Dr. Eggman has tracked his treasonous lackey, Snively, all the way to the Dragon Kingdom! Snively is out to rescue the love of his life, but will the embittered Iron Queen take him back? More importantly: will the Dragon Kingdom survive a visit from the good doctor?"

"(W/A) Various (CA) Ben Bates
Sonic Super Special Magazine is back and better than ever! The first Sonic comic magazine in Archie history, already packed with over 100 pages of comics, news, and features, will also feature a brand-new Sonic Video-Game story! Sega's hottest new game is getting the comic book treatment, and it's only available in this deluxe, magazine-sized, quarterly collection! Also featured is the dramatic return of Dr. Eggman, the birth of New Mobotropolis and the new Sonic Time Line, which features more new art from fan-favorite artists Jamal Peppers and Tracy Yardley!"

Any theories on what the two new teams are?

236's cover is so awesome.

[CC14 the Vipester]

The new covers look awesome. (I chuckled at SU #39's. XD)

Something thing to note, though, is that the issue number is now in the upper righthand corner rather than the left for all titles rather than just SU and they actually printed the word "issue" before it. Interesting new cover format.

[Azure Yakuzu]

Didn't think Sonic was the type to be a motivational speaker.

[Ice King]

I can't wait for Scrambled. It looks like it's gonna be full of Eggman awesomeness. Loving 39's cover.

[Vampfox]

I don't like the sounds of this. One of my favorite things about the book is that the freedom fighters are a team.

Great covers, Eggman looks awesome.

[Soniman]

Aww man, that "Fight for Freedom" cover is so hilariously cheesy that I can't help but love it.

Midtown Comics. Couldn't have really faked the covers.

[Azookara]

They're... going beyond the Freedom Fighters? All this plus Sally being a robot, Eggman being insanely awesome, King Naugus, and Ben Bates + the way they're coloring things nowadays..

I HAVE to get back into the comics, now.

Also, both the 236 & Scrambled Pt. 3 covers are amazing.

Man, I'm actually really looking forward to the next couple of issues! I'm excited for what's in store in the main series, not to mention the Eggman mini-series in Universe.

I can't help but wonder how this King Naugus thing will turn out, not to mention the Freedom Fighters apparently disbanding. I do like that the status quo is being shaken somewhat, but will it last long?

Click on "Independents" in that link. The Sonic solicts are on the second page.

[Sorceror Spudhead]

The Future begins today? You mean we found out about what Silver is talking about when he comes? Sweet? I wonder who the two teams could be, One will have Sonic and Tails definatly.

Scrambled? Sadly my like for this comic is being held down now since they said two words. Iron. Queen. Orbot and Cubot I can bear but don't bring back that naff excuse for a witch. Please?

This. Though hopefully soon enough, they'll get back together once they restore Sally and kick Naugus off the throne, which could happen around the #250 mark. Heck, I don't mind if they do a name change to the team as long as most of the originals are back together.

As for the new team, I'm guessing either one of the 'Freedom Fighters' are probably going to create or lead one or Knuckles joining in and creating a new team (or just an updated Team Chaotix) or Shadow leading a new GUN division team.

Interesting.

I think the one team would include Sonic, Tails and Amy (due to Ian stating she would help Sonic alot this year).I wonder if the teams are split because of different missions or because of the conclusion from Silver's visit in 235 meaning they have different views because of the traitor- either way exciting stuff.

Scrambled Arc is looking pretty good-Was a little disappointed with the last arc.

It's too obvious that Tails and Amy stick with Sonic, while Ant, Bunnie and I'm assuming Rotor make up the other, course it's just all predictions at this point. their will likely be other folks like Cream, Mina, Big, Elias and others joining whoever also.

[Panda Cero]

Is that a Sonic Busters badge on Eggman's chest? (My god Ben, I love you)
