Sonic was a killer of Gods, yet few knew his name. As a general rule, he preferred it that way. Enduring decades of the normal and mundane has worn him down, and his mind can't help but long for the glory days. One day, a sudden reunion with an old (and complicated) rival presents a glowing opportunity. With more desperation than he would care to admit to, he begs for Shadow to take him on an adventure for one last time. Or, 30 years have passed since the games and comics - and two rivals reunite in their mid 40s to kick ass just like old times... in theory.
