Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails, Knuckles, and the rest of the Sonic Team gang are about to collide with the DC Universe in the upcoming crossover series DC x Sonic the Hedgehog, and it will be a race to discover who really is the ultimate speedster.

DC and SEGA have finally released the official cover art for DC x Sonic the Hedgehog, the upcoming comic book series that brings together the unlikely teams of the Justice League and Sonic the Hedgehog.

DC Comics has shared a first look at DC x Sonic the Hedgehog #1, a new five-issue series featuring the Justice League's meeting with characters from Sonic's world...and yes, he'll be racing The Flash!

In addition to the comic, future DC and Sonic the Hedgehog collaborations are planned, including a merch set featuring Shadow dressed as Batman – although this will be exclusive to Target in the US. Other planned merch includes Sonic as The Flash, Tails as Cyborg, Amy as Wonder Woman, and more.
