The fan-favorite crossover speeds back into the DCU! Following the runaway success of DC x Sonic the Hedgehog in 2025, DC and SEGA of America are teaming up once again for a brand-new five-issue comic book adventure uniting the Justice League with Sonic the Hedgehog and Team Sonic, featuring more character pairings for fans to look forward to. The next chapter of this blockbuster collaboration begins May 5, 2026, with DC x Sonic the Hedgehog: Metal Legion #1.
The worlds of DC Comics’ Justice League and SEGA’s Sonic the Hedgehog™ collide once more in another thrilling crossover filled with action, adventure, laughs, and perils. Mysterious mechanical rings have appeared across both worlds, linking them together and unleashing all things wonderful, worrisome, and weird. The heroes are happily reunited, but little do they suspect there’s a sinister origin behind their unexpected team-ups.
Written by fan-favorite Sonic scribe Ian Flynn and illustrated by returning artist Adam Bryce Thomas, DC x Sonic the Hedgehog: Metal Legion reunites the creative team that helped make the first crossover a smash hit with fans, retailers, and readers of all ages.
"I had an absolute blast the last time around, and I'm really happy that little tease we left at the end of the first crossover is finally coming to fruition," said Flynn. "I hope everyone enjoys this second go around as much as I did writing it!"
DC x Sonic the Hedgehog: Metal Legion #1 features a main cover by Pablo M. Collar, with variant covers by Adam Bryce Thomas, Serg Acuña, and Min Ho Kim. The 32-page debut issue arrives May 5, 2026, priced at $3.99 US, with card stock variants available for $4.99 US.
