Some sad news about the IDW Sonic Chasing Shadows have been cancelled unfortunately 😔 We all been waiting for this to come and myself been looking forward to this as well. You can read the statements from Kiel Phegley & Mauro Fonseca (Artist)

It's such a shame It has come to this and the project they both must've of worked hard on this too. What do you think of all of this?

At least there's a chance that the plot can be reworked for future main stories.

It’s a shame as this would have introduced a new writer and a new villain character apparently.

Might get approved or they’ll use the new character for next year’s Halloween special. But unfortunate

To add a band aid to that wound, I have ideas for 2 new story arcs for the future. One being a battle between Shadow and Surge after meeting for the first time, and Mimic’s relative who would get revenge on Whisper for ending him forever by shapeshifting into Sonic’s friends and they’ll solve a mystery on who’s real and who’s a fake and it’s basically John Carpenter’s The Thing but with Sonic characters. Speaking of horror movies, I also thought of a “NON-CANON” crossover with Terrifier where Sonic and friends go on a journey to stop Art The Clown from attacking the Restoration and everyone in Mobius, and the graphic blood and gore would be replaced by rings scattering. Hey, Archie crossed over with Predator, so we’re fine with it.

This was supposed to be March 2026, but since I saw this yesterday, no official release date at all, this is extremely upsetting.

I just hope there is a chance that the story can be released one day in the future

I have some stories to fill in the gaps. The past and the future. Origin stories.

This is because of sega’s meddling to not allowing dead characters

Creo que mí corazón acaba de romperse 🥺💔 Me sorprende que lo hayan cancelado, ya que se menciona (en cierta forma) al final del Issue 75. Y si dicen que SEGA aprobó al nuevo personaje que iba a aparecer, entonces el cómic solo debería seguir retrasado....🤔 Espero que algún día se pueda anular su cancelación y que se realice de manera oficial.
