The 30 Years Later Story Begins Inside
Just this morning, Archie Comics posted the official preview of Sonic Universe #5, which begins the four part 30 Years Later arc. The story begins, as you’ll see in the pages below, with King Sonic and Queen Sally Acorn–and their offspring–lounging around, reflecting on the the way it was in once war-torn Mobius via…well, a news report. As we join in, five years of peace have been marked on the planet…of course, keeping the peace is never easy.
Ian Flynn penned the script, and Tracy Yardley handled art and pencils. Take a look at the description below, and start to get immersed with the cover and the first five pages.

“Five Years of Peace”: By popular demand, we’re going back to the future! It’s now thirty years down the line and King Sonic is on the throne. He has his hands full with the tiny royal twins, but fan-favorite Lara-Su is there to help. As the world prepares to celebrate the new royal family, a deadly plot is hatched from the shadows…and you’ll never guess who shows up at the end! It’s the action and adventure you’ve come to expect from “Mobius: 25 Years Later” tales…not to mention all your favorite good guys and bad guys! The future has never been more frantic…and it’s up to Sonic to make sure it’s infinite!

thats cool i though manik the hedgehog why arcon?
Wow, The kids’ names are Sonic Underground references.
Cool, I can’t wait for “You Know Who” shows up again.
One thing I can’t understand about these comics is whatever happened to Sonamy? Perhaps you grow to love Sally more in the comics, but wheres Amy? It’s a bit sad really
I`m not going be happy when Ex King Shadow comes up
@ TailstheHedgehog:
Oh, God…That’s because Sally came first, and Amy came in around the Sonic CD Adaptation of the comic book. Even so, it’s never gonna happen. If they became a couple, Amy wouldn’t have a character anymore and there wouldn’t be a reason for her to stick around.
Man, neither Shadow nor Sally look very pleased with that turn of events. Also, Sasha is a horribly biased reporter.
@ Black Hawk : So true about Amy if she gets hitched with Sonic
Sally = Enrique VIII
