Sonic has sometimes appeared in relation to various sports teams Sega have sponsored. One of a class of genes involved in fruit fly embryonic development, called hedgehog genes, has been named "sonic hedgehog" after the character. As a result of this popularity, he has been referred to in various parts of culture. After having been around only three years, he had already surpassed Nintendo's Mario in popularity according to a June 1993 Q-Survey in the Gameplayers magazine. Sonic has proven to be an extremely popular character. Sonic comics were also present in the British newspaper News of the World, and a promotional comic was produced by SEGA of America itself in 1991. Sonic comics and books have also been published by Sirène ( Sonic Adventures), Troll Associates, Virgin Books, Ladybird, and Fantail. Both are unaware of the other's existence and have no memories of each other. In this series, Sonic is an alter-ego/transformation of the much younger Nicky (In a way curiously similar to how Sonic the Comic handles Super Sonic, albeit without the vile change of personality), who is also a hedgehog. One particularly notable publication is the one by Shogakukan. In Japan, Sonic manga have been published by various companies. An unofficial continuation of the Archie Comics continuity is also known to exist.

The printed version of Sonic the Comic was discontinued in 2002, but many of the staff have continued the series online as Sonic the Comic Online.
One of its most famous and drastic changes was the relegation of Super Sonic to a psychopathic alter-ego of Sonic. In the United Kingdom, Fleetway produced Sonic the Comic, which strayed heavily from previous Sonic canons.
Following the Super Genesis Wave, the Archie Comics came more in line with the main games and remained so until their cancellation, after which they were superseded by the IDW comic series. The American comics published by Archie Comics are largely based on the settings established by the ABC SatAM cartoon. Sonic's first comic appearance was in a promotional comic printed in Disney Adventures magazine, which established an origin for Sonic involving the transformation of kindly scientist Dr. Sonic is voiced by Jun'ichi Kanemaru in the Japanese version, and by Jason Griffith in the English version. In addition, the characters' designs are based upon the more recent Sonic games' character designs. Music from the games is used during select key moments in the series, and several animation sequences strongly resemble cut-scenes from the console titles. Like the other television series, it has an original storyline not present in any of the games, although it can be viewed as an elaboration upon the Sonic Adventure games' expanded universe. Another anime production, called Sonic X, involves a massive Chaos Control blast that results in Sonic and his friends being transported from his world to Earth (however, Season 3 mainly takes place in Sonic's own world). Sonic was voiced by Masami Kikuchi in Japan, and Martin Burke in the United States where the OVA was marketed as Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie. White returned to voice Sonic, with Samuel Vincent providing his singing voice, while Robotnik was voiced by Gary Chalk.Īdditionally, there was an anime OVA in Japan which featured Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Eggman, and Metal Sonic among others, based on Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2. The plotline of Robotnik already being in power and Sonic being tasked with toppling his rule is retained, however.
Sonic Underground, a combined Franco-American-British production, ignored the continuity of the previous series and introduced two siblings and Sonic's mother, additionally putting a heavy emphasis on music both in the lore and in the episodal structure.

Sonic belonged to a team of "Freedom Fighters" trying to free their planet from Robotnik, who had already conquered the world and ruled as a psychopathic tyrant. It ignored the game series and was instead set in the 33rd century. The Archie comics were based heavily on this series's continuity both SatAM and the comics are far darker and more brooding than Adventures. Sonic was voiced by Jaleel White, and Robotnik was voiced by Jim Cummings. SatAM (A colloquial name for a cartoon simply titled "Sonic the Hedgehog"), originally broadcast on Saturdays on ABC, was broadcast concurrently with the syndicated Adventures series in the United States. It had a very comical take on Sonic and Tails's adventures and battles against Robotnik. Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was the first and featured Sonic, voiced by Jaleel White, and Robotnik, voiced by Long John Baldry. There have been several animated television series featuring Sonic.
