Justice League is Ready to Welcome Its Best Ally to Date: Sonic the Hedgehog

The Justice League has worked with a lot of amazing heroes and teams in the past, but none as cool as Sonic the Hedgehog. The upcoming crossover between DC and Sonic has fans everywhere hyped, and a new solicitation is showing Sonic working side-by-side with the one hero who may be his equal.

DC Comics has just released its batch of April solicitations and while it may be the Summer of Superman, it’s all about the Blue Blur and his adventures with the Justice League in the second issue of the much-anticipated crossover, DC x Sonic the Hedgehog.

The solicited information for DC x Sonic the Hedgehog #2 reveals that the Justice League has officially teamed up with Sonic and his pals to stop Darkseid from destroying the hedgehog’s home. Adam Bryce Thomas’ cover for the second issue shows Darkseid wielding a Chaos Emerald as Sonic and the Flash unite to stop him.

As one of the most well-known superhero teams, the Justice League has had crossovers with numerous properties over the years. Just last year, the team faced off against a number of the MonsterVerse’s Titans in Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong. And before that, the premier super-team and its members have fought alongside other, unexpected heroes, such as the protagonists of Black Hammer, the Power Rangers, and even the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But it wasn’t until earlier this year that news of a crossover between DC Comics and Sonic the Hedgehog came to light, igniting interest among fans everywhere.

Granted, the Justice League has worked with some of the most powerful beings in the DC Universe and beyond. But Sonic the Hedgehog is no slouch. Aside from being the fastest creature in his universe, Sonic has faced off with several powerful enemies, many of which rival the League’s biggest threats. Of course, Darkseid is a force unto himself and if he manages to get a hold of the Chaos Emeralds, things could get bad very quickly. But the Justice League has fought Darkseid in dozens of realities and having Sonic’s help all but assures the heroes will ultimately win.

Sonic Has This One Covered, Flash

Darkseid has Omega Beams on his side, but if anyone could outrace such a powerful attack, it’d be Sonic. But Sonic is more than just an incredibly fast hedgehog who’s also quick with the jokes. Sonic is clever and relentlessly determined. He’s faced odds that could have easily ended in his death, but he’s always managed to find a way to come out on top. And it doesn’t hurt that he’ll have the resources of the DC Universe’s greatest heroes on his side. Darkseid may want to look out because Sonic and the Justice League might have a winning partnership.

DC x Sonic the Hedgehog #2 is available on April 16th, 2025.
