I pretty sure Sonic’s heart stopped


charisma-entertainer

Even if it was for 1 millisecond, sonic was dead at some point


RonSwansonsGun

Alright, who's gonna bite the bullet and kiss him?


Ok-Struggle2305

Knuckles

Altair890456

I’ll do it. I’ll make the sacrifice.


Lightningbro

I don't know if this was supposed to sound noble, but instead my mind just took it the Amy Rose way. "Who's gonna kiss Sonic and bring him back to life?" "ME! I'LL DO IT! I'LL TAKE THE SACRIFICE!" "Amy, you can't..." "DON'T TAKE THIS FROM ME!"


Bommie20

That queue is gonna be out the door

disbelifpapy

Technically this is both the first time and second time sonic had 'died'


TripleTheThreat

Oof


Emilien-301

Sonic probably just see his life flashing before his eyes (Also cool art by the way 👍🏻)


Lukthar123

> Sonic probably just see his life flashing before his eyes *Pick. It. Up.*


Amargosaur

Now I wonder what The Wolf would think of Sonic. Edit: Spoiler


NathanJack0Lantern

Happy cake day


Amargosaur

Thanks!


ToaDrakua

He’d be cool with him. Guy appreciates his life.

biscuityart

They sure do! They sure do. The metal virus, anyone? This art is fantastic, it really captures the tone of this scene. Horrifying, desolate, but grateful he didn't die.


RebsInSpace

Thanks so much! :D and yeah, the metal virus is probably my favorite arc just for how it handles Sonic's reaction to being infected and slowly losing the ability to just run it off and pretend like he has it under control. As much as I like the cocky personality, it's interesting to see how he approaches the darker stuff sometimes.


[deleted]

I think like Spider-Man, Sonic makes jokes and acts cocky as a bit of a coping mechanism but also as a battle strategy because it annoys Eggman so much


JagoMajin

Spider-Man makes jokes to hide the fact that he's terrified, the fact that it can throw off the people he's fighting becomes a bonus, people should be worried when he isn't making jokes. I suppose the same could be applied to Sonic as well, if Sonic's visibly angry, it's usually for a good reason


TheIJDGuy

I love characters who use quips to cope. Spider-Man, Sonic, Ben 10, Dante, etc.


GreBa-Angol

Frontiers kinda dipped into that territory as well with the Cyberspace corruption thing. Though admittedly it's kinda brushed aside for the most part (unfortunately), seeing his neutral stance getting more strained with each island and hearing those idle lines expanding on him deteriorating both physically and mentally paints just enough of a picture to be interesting, especially since the actual games never went there before.


slimyemo

No especially when he's struggling in pain but sees that Tails is watching and strengthens his resolve and plays it off with a joke. Literally such a good character moment


Riaayo

Metal Virus was great because of the dynamic with Sonic having to wrestle with whether or not he made the right choice with Tinker. Everyone is giving him shit, and he's seeing the consequences in front of him. He has to work through that and come to terms with his own morality and decisions, and that was extremely refreshing imo. It's a level of character conflict and dynamic I feel hasn't quite been re-achieved yet in following arcs. I still love IDW overall, but nothing is perfect.


KingMario05

At long last, the Wisps pay Sonic back!


SeizeTheFreitag

I figured they returned the favour when they carried him out of the black hole.


KingMario05

Nah, that was only part 1 of the deal. */s*


Kirby_Slayr

He did unenslave them after all.


KingMario05

*Twice*, even!


Neospood

I like how you drew Sonic's expression, helps to sell his shock (no pun intended) at his near death.


blorbooo

sonic being visibly shaken hits different and I can't explain why


PlagueisTheHedgehog

Sonic almost never gets shook, comics being the exception really, so shook Sonic is special.


Ayy-lmao213

He's dead


poger_fish

Context please, I haven't been keeping up with IDW.


Intelligent_Oil4005

>!So the girl laying next to Sonic is Surge. She's a victim of brainwashign by Starline and got inflicted with electricity powers as a way for her to keep up with Sonic. Starline died a couple issues ago, but Surge stole Whisper's Wisp and tried turning them into a weapon that amplified her powers and tried to kill Sonic. But it kinda overloaded and she's in a coma. Kit saved her tho!<


Bad_Modder

Oh thank god I thought she fucking died


poger_fish

Cool cool, also sonics a teen?


biscuityart

Yes, he is supposed to be a teenager. The general agreed-upon age is 15, but Frontiers has made us all confused. I'm 99% sure he's still meant to be a teenager in Frontiers, though.


xenoperspicacian

Officially they removed ages (which was a very good decision, IMO), so it's undefined.


Bad_Modder

I guess, idk I've just been not really following sonic ages because I'm too stupid to remember everything


[deleted]

The ages for most of the cast are (or were) as follows: Sonic is 15, Tails is 8, Knuckles is 16, Amy is 12, Shadow is an awkward one but he’s basically 15 physically but is over 50 years old chronologically, Rouge is 18, Cream is 6, Vanilla is 26, Big is 18, Vector is 20, Espio is 16 Charmy is 6 years old, Blaze is 14, Silver is also 14, and then Dr.Eggman is somewhere in his 50’s.


sdrawkcabsihtetorwI

To be honest, we dont know that for sure, >!Kit made an attempt at killing everybody!< >!by destroying entire underground complex and burrying everybody inside but we havent seen him leave so its uncertain if they survived. Kit wasnt exacly completely sane atm.!< She was alive moments after that scene according to Sonic though.


AnotherDraguest

God that close up of Surge tired face when she says that she can´t, like she legit seems to have tryed to not obsess over sonic but it was physically imposible for her like i normally have trouble identifying emotions (much to my annoyance) but that shot was... strong...so many emotions there


SmolderTheDragon

Man, and I thought for sure that the issue after this one would feature a cathartic reunion between Whisper and her wisps, along with Tangle and Whisper, but sadly #57 starts with all of them already reunited.


metaaltheanimefan

Any media loves traumatized teens tbh


Antique_Amphibian107

Sonic went through more shit in the IDW comics than whatever happened those last years in the games


AyanoHimekami

I don't know why I read that title in the Gomer Pyle voice.


Altair890456

Dang, Sonic just can’t catch a break can he? He’s been through so many near-death experiences. Hell, he even died one time and was resurrected via a combination of beastiality and necrophilla! (A fate worse than death in my opinion.)


Relative_Jeweler_949

That's some bad spoiler good god


NumerousEngineering6

Steven Universe tramua type beat.


Monkey_King291

That is pure terror on his face

JohnOfOnett

At least Surge can be happy she got closer to killing Sonic than Eggman or Starline ever did.


Puzzleheaded_Chard_2

Man I really need to just suck it up and read this series. Everything I am seeing from the surge arc just looked so good.


Jenny_Wakeman9

Welp, Sonic died and lost a life.


Phxsma_XD

Why she eepy


JediMasterLigma

Sonic broke her neck.


Linolikememes

javenthng12

IDW writers have a trauma fetish


AvailableBee7902

What does IDW mean


Lucario_TobyTramBoi

Haven’t read the comics for a while, context for image?


BrokenVesselGaming

Tails:Hey Sonic what are you doi- Sonic:Green hill is lookin' a lot more a like drug hill en


Status_General_1780

This IMG looks like sonic’s post nut clarity


cachisonic_chido

Idk why but sonic face gives the feel of "what the hell just happened"


SH4RPSPEED

IDW seems to have a thing for taking "childish" franchises and and doing, well, this kind of stuff with 'em. Seriously, lemme tell you a thing or two about DJD from Transformers.


Turbobist28

Owl House and Amphibia also like to traumatize their teens.
