Webtoon, IDW Launch Sonic the Hedgehog, Locke & Key Comics Reformatted as Webtoons

On April 25, WEBTOON and IDW Publishing released newly reformatted webtoon versions of the Sonic the Hedgehog and the Eisner Award-winning Locke & Key comics exclusively on WEBTOON.

The two series join previously announced WEBTOON adaptations from IDW, including the three-part saga Godzilla: Unnatural Disasters, the Eisner-nominated horror series Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, and George Takei's memoir They Called Us Enemy.

The companies describe Sonic the Hedgehog:

The evil genius Dr. Eggman has been foiled — but the work of Sonic the Hedgehog isn't over yet! In the aftermath of the latest epic battle, rogue robots continue to attack small villages around the world. In order to defeat them, Sonic will need the help of his friends Tails, Knuckles, and Amy, along with some new and surprising allies. This new collection features the Blue Blur like you've never seen him before. Gotta go fast!

The companies describe Locke & Key:

Locke & Key tells a sprawling tale of magic and family, legacy and grief, good and evil. Acclaimed suspense novelist and New York Times best-selling author Joe Hill (The Fireman, Heart-Shaped Box) has created a gripping story of dark fantasy and wonder—with astounding artwork from Gabriel Rodriguez—that, like the doors of Keyhouse, will transform all who open it.

Fans can read Sonic the Hedgehog and Locke & Key on WEBTOON now.
