The Insta-Shield is a move that appears in the Sonic the Comic series published by Fleetway Editions. It is a technique used by Sonic the Hedgehog where he creates a force field using speed.
Description
When performing the Insta-Shield, Sonic vibrates the air molecules in front of him at sonic speed. This creates a brief force field that is dense enough to block Knuckles' punches and wilt metal spikes. This apparently creates some form of static electricity around Sonic's limbs. According to Knuckles, the Insta-Shield is painful to hit.[1][2]
History
Sonic's first known usage of the Insta-Shield was on his first trip to the Floating Island where he used it to block a Pointdexter's spikes, much to Tails' surprise.[1] He later used it again during a fight with Knuckles the Echidna on the same island.[2]
Trivia
- The Insta-Shield is based on the move that debuted in Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
