Notice to Archie STH comic fans: The two-parter, "Songoose" in Archie's Sonic The Hedgehog #153 & #154, was Karl Bollers' last work in the Archie comic series. He said, "I wanted to continue doing SONIC, but I found that the direction editorial wanted to go in was in conflict with my own story sensibilities."

According to Diamond Comics, Archie's Sonic X #2 is on sale in comic shops starting today.

In an odd move, mra entertainment has announced two Sonic X collections. Collection 1 has episodes 1-9 and Collection 2 has episodes 10-19. Both are set to be released on December 5th in Oz. It would be much better if they released the Sonic Underground DVDs that were supposed to be out a month ago.

A number of Sonic 2 in 1 games are set to be released. These are Sonic Advance + Pinball Party, Pinball Party + Collumns (some random tetris game) and Sonic Advance + Sonic Battle.

In the US they're set to be released on the 15th of November. No word on the UK, but considering how Oz and UK release dates are similar, they're probably going to be released around November 20th.

While browsing Amazon, I came across Sonic 360, which is said to be released in the UK on December 2nd, 2005, for the Xbox 360, but not PS3. I'm a bit skeptical, since it was revealed only a few months ago, but Amazon is an offical website...

I think it's a typo, and they meant to put 2006. But check it out and see what you think.
