Nothing concrete for now

If you want the book as soon as possible, the safest bet is to pledge to the Kickstarter

the cucumber flavor with the tomato is what’s really making it

Sonic Scrapnik Island by @danny8bit.bsky.social
@jlawrenceart.bsky.social is excellent. Moody, exciting, fantastically drawn. And it spotlights Sonic front and center as a character which the comic books often do not. Easily the best we’ve gotten from the IDW Sonic era, which has been good.
