IDW's acclaimed Sonic the Hedgehog comic series recently celebrated a significant milestone with the release of its 75th issue. This landmark edition, Sonic the Hedgehog #75, showcased the epic final confrontation between Team Sonic and the nefarious villain Clutch. The aftermath of this battle sets the stage for a gripping new storyline titled "Scattered Pieces," which will unfold across issues #76 through #80.

With Sonic the Hedgehog #76 now available in stores, IGN is thrilled to offer an exclusive first look at new artwork from the penultimate chapter of "Scattered Pieces" during IGN Fan Fest. Dive into the slideshow gallery below to explore the three captivating covers for Sonic the Hedgehog #79, alongside the previously unveiled "Scattered Pieces" covers.

The "Scattered Pieces" arc is penned by the series' mainstay writer, Ian Flynn. Sonic the Hedgehog #79 boasts interior art and a main cover by Adam Bryce Thomas, complemented by variant covers crafted by Tyler Mcgrath and Nathalie Fourdraine.

Here's the official synopsis from IDW for Sonic the Hedgehog #79:

The long-running feud between ace sniper Whisper and sinister assassin Mimic is coming to a climactic showdown!

Only one of these former comrades will walk away! Can Tangle and Silver help turn the tide of battle? Or will Whisper suffer another friend getting caught in the crossfire? It’s a thrilling battle years in the making!

Ian Flynn shared his insights with IGN, stating, "IDW’s Sonic the Hedgehog has been going strong for seven years now, and in that time has cultivated a number of storylines, characters, and narrative elements it can call its own. A lot of those all came to a head in Evan Stanley’s latest arc. Reaching a story’s climax is always fun, but I’m also just as eager to explore the follow-up. There will be a lot of fans asking 'What happens next?' My arc gets to answer that, bring a few conclusions of my own, and set the stage for Evan’s next major arc with the series."

Sonic the Hedgehog #76 is currently available in stores, and fans can look forward to issue #77, set to release on March 19. Preorder your copy at your local comic shop by clicking here to find your nearest location.
