Sonic the Hedgehog was a long-running series of American comic books published by Archie Comics with the help of Sega, featuring Sega's mascot video game character, Sonic the Hedgehog. It ran from July 1993 to February 2017. Spin-off publications from the comic included a Knuckles the Echidna series starring the titular character, which ran for 32 issues; fifteen 48-page "Super Specials"; eight single special issues; and four short three-issue miniseries, each starring a character from the series. On 21 September 2005, Archie Comics started a new series based on the Sonic X anime. On 24 February 2009, Archie Comics produced their first issue of Sonic Universe, which contained four-issue stories that took place at the same time as the main series. This comic featured a mixture of characters, settings, and situations from the Sonic the Hedgehog cartoon, the Sonic the Hedgehog video games by Sega, and various other incarnations of Sonic. It also included many elements unique to the comic.

The comic series was recognized in the Guinness World Records for being the longest running comic series based on a video game.

The final issue of the main series was issue 290, released in December 2016. Following an undisclosed hiatus in early 2017, Sega of America finally announced on 19 July 2017 that they ended their publishing partnership with Archie Comics, therefore ending the comic series.
