    Interesting book.

    But on the article itself, that's pretty cool, but I've never even read an Archie comic. I miss the Sonic Fleetway comic so much :(

    The comic stars the character. And this is the forum for the character, so it's totally relevant.

    Indeed. If there was no game, there would be no comic!

    Yup. I own a copy of that book, and it's a really interesting read. There's some really interesting records.

    Does anyone know who Sonic beat (the character that started as a video game and has a comic) ? I'm drawing a blank.

    Also, should I submit him as a comic book character because he is in one, or not because he didn't start out as one?

    Does it mention how many shitty friends have not made the transition from the comics to the games and vice versa?  A yes means I'm picking this one up.

    Comic Book Character should probably be left for characters that originated from a comic. Identifying every video game character that's appeared in a comic or cartoon would be a task for the absolutely insane.

    If I did do it, it'd only be for many appearances in a comic book, not a comic book one shots
    Well I do have 130,000 points at Comicvine and more points than anyone else in "Cartoon Character" am I insane enough?
