Shadow the Hedgehog manga heading to CoroCoro Comics

The Sonic brand certainly has a legacy in the world of videogames, but fans know the I.P. reaches much further than that. While Sonic-themed movies are a huge portion of the pie in recent years, the world of Sonic has also been brought to life in comics for decades now. That trend is set to continue soon in Japan, but Sonic won’t be the main player this time out.

It’s been revealed that a Shadow the Hedgehog manga is in the works, and it’s set to make its debut in CoroCoro Comics’ October 2024 issue. If you’re looking for more details on this manga, you’ll unfortunately have to wait patiently, as no other information on the series has been shared at this time.

Obviously, the timing on this manga isn’t mere coincidence, as Sonic X Shadow Generations is heading to Switch October 25th, 2024. It’s clear SEGA is trying to raise the profile of this game, especially with Japanese audiences. Going with a manga in CoroCoro Comics is certainly a way to grab some attention, and hopefully it’ll sway some people to go all-in on the Sonic series.
