The Art of the Sonic the Hedgehog Comics was a planned artbook by Archie Comics. It was to contain 304 pages with various artwork pertaining to the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs. After numerous delays, listings for the book have vanished online, with a release seeming unlikely, since Archie Comics lost the rights to Sonic comics.
