A new, 12-part comic series sees Sonic the Hedgehog team up with Mega Man. The crossover is being published by Archie Comics, which believes this will be one of the most "acclaimed and best-selling comic crossovers ever."

 “We’ve had a long, fruitful history with Sonic and are enjoying great success with Mega Man in all our markets. Bringing these characters together was something we’ve been hoping for since we got both licenses, so this is very much a dream come true for the company," says Archie Comics Co-CEO Jon Goldwater.

Ian Flynn, a long-time Sonic and Mega Man comic writer, is tackling the storyline for this project. It will be available both in print and digitally. A release date was not announced.
