Sonic & Mega Man crossover prelude flipbook available on Free Comic Book Day

Sonic Free Comic

By now you know of the awesome Sonic and Mega Man crossover story that Archie Comics is currently running. To add to the mix this Saturday, which is Free Comic Book Day, Archie will be distributing a flipbook comic containing a prelude to the story, “Worlds Collide.” The book is actually 2 stories in one, telling how both Sonic and Mega Man’s stories leading up to the big event. I know I plan on picking up a copy if I can. Is anyone else following this awesome story that needs to be made into a video game?

  1. This is probably the only book I care about picking up!

    • Ditto! That, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one of course.

        If I am allowed to get more than one free comic, I will try to get that too. And maybe the Adventure Time one.

        • I’ve gotten comics as part of Free Comic Book day from various shops across the UK and I’ve never had a limit on how many comics I could take. You should be okay.

          I’m just hoping my shop stocks this one, as not all the shops stock every single “Silver Tier” book. I know my local shop in particular had to stop stocking the Archie Sonic comic due to a lack of demand.

            Yeah, sometimes it depends on the store. I’ve gotten several before, but one time was only allowed to get one. For my local US shops, I’ve been told Sonic is very popular and in high demand. So sometimes stock might be low on certain issues.

          • Really? Just one issue? That’s lame and I hope you have better luck this year.

            But yeah, last time I went I’d gotten there too late and they only had a few indie comics left. Not that there’s anything wrong with indie comics, they’re just not what I was hoping for.

            Yeeeep. It was the same this year. The comic stores are too cheap and only allow one free comic book per person. At least I grabbed the Sonic/Megaman one. But then I realized all they did was take parts of previously published issues and put them together. Kind of disappointed.

  2. So did anyone grab this? I missed out, but I did get a MegaMan issue. Woo?
