Sonic The Hedgehog #57
SCORE: 76
I am very thankful that one of our local comic book stores had a copy
of Sonic The Hedgehog #57 to be purchased. I am also thankful I had the
money, and time to review this comic book. Sonic The Hedgehog #57 picks
up an older item and starts a new thread with it. There will be spoilers
in this review. Many of the characters in Sonic The Hedgehog #57 are
unfamiliar to me. They have been in Sonic The Hedgehog comic books in
the past though.
We meet the Diamond Cutters in Sonic The Hedgehog #57. They had nothing
to do with Diamond Dallas Page though. The Diamond Cutters are Jewel the
Beetle, Tangle the Lemur, Whisper the Wolf, and Lanolin the sheep.
Whisper has her wisps back in Sonic The Hedgehog #57. There are
references to Eggman, Surge and others within Sonic The Hedgehog #57.
Sonic joins the Diamond Cutters in their recon mission of the new city
Eggman created.
Sonic The Hedgehog #57 shows us a couple of interesting things. The city
is going larger. It is digging underground and strip mining everything
for the resources to repair itself and to grow. There is an interesting
debate about coming back with more of a force or trying to stop it right
then and there. How much bigger will it grow if you leave? Are you
really capable of taking it out with so few characters?
The main issue families will have with Sonic The Hedgehog #57 is
violence. Sonic The Hedgehog #57 starts with the story so far, then
twenty pages of content, next month, Sonic Letter Squad, Creator Corner,
alternate covers and then a few advertisements. There are plenty of
action sequences in Sonic The Hedgehog #57 that make it a pretty quick
read. At the end of Sonic The Hedgehog #57 the Diamond Cutters are in
trouble and Sonic is asking for reinforcements.
All in all Sonic The Hedgehog #57 is a decent little read. The portal
that comes after the characters sounds really bad. It looks like some of
the characters went through that portal. I am not educated as to where
that portal will take them. I hope to find out in the next issue. Sonic
looks like he is in big trouble at the end of Sonic The Hedgehog #57. I
hope help arrives in time. I think Tails and Amy are part of the rescue
squad.
