EDIT_HERE

After an extended absence, STP is back with a new episode!  L. T., Shay and Stu are joined by “Sonicmark” Mark Hughes to discuss Tails’ time in the Nameless Zone and the Chemical Plant Zone!  Hope you all enjoy it!

[sonicthepodcast]

Check this out, guys, a quick little info burst about the STCC Kickstarter and event (including some information you may not have previously known!)

[stconline]

Something big!

Hey Boomers! Do you want to hear some ridiculously exciting news? Then definitely keep an eye on our social media sites tomorrow morning!

[sonicthepodcast]

Be excited, Boomers!

[sonicthepodcast]

EDIT_HERE

Well, Boomers, it's Summer alright and that must mean it's time for STP to have a look at Sonic The Summer Special (and a story about pollution because, you know, that whole connection there).

Stiv, Shay and L. T. are joined by an extra special guest for this one, someone whose Sonic experience is very different to the usual crew's!

[sonicthepodcast]

Stiv, Shay and L. T. try to pick out the best and worst Sonic stories from the first year of STC!  They need your help, though, to pick out the overall top and bottom!  Give the episode a listen then head to the Message Zone, sign up (it takes about a minute of your time!) and then check out these threads: http://sonicthecomic.proboards.com/thread/12000/poll-worst-sonic-friends-year

[sonicthepodcast]

A new STP for you to enjoy today, guys!  Stiv, Shay, Stu and L. T. take a look at their favourite strips from the entirety of Decap Attack's amazing run!

[sonicthepodcast]

We're back to the start as we go back to cover Sonic The Comic's first six issues!  Stiv, L. T. and Shay are joined by special guest Adam "T-Bird" Tuff, one of the co-organisers of Summer of Sonic, to take a look at STC's less-than-golden early days!

[sonicthepodcast]

Episode 9 is here as Stiv, Shay and L. T. take a look at the first Sonic's World story from issues 25-27.  This three parter is a great catch-up for new readers and a great way to round off STC's first year.

Next episode we'll be jumping back in time to cover issues 1-6: the awkward early days of STC!

[sonicthepodcast]

It's here at last!  Shay, Stiv and L. T. look at the awesome story The Sonic Terminator!

Enjoy, guys!

Here’s something I’ve just whipped up (independantly, I must stress).  I thought it’d be interesting to see exactly what the fans think of STC’s characters, stories and the like, past and present.  This’ll let us see with reasonable accuracy precisely what is most liked about this excellent comic.

Survey closes at 8pm GMT on the 1st of December, plenty of time to get some good results going.

[sonicthepodcast]

Shay, L. T. and special guest Claire "Mambo" Ryan take a look over the first part of the Sonic CD storyline!  Great episode to record, lots of fun!

[sonicthepodcast]

Shay, Stiv and L. T. take a look back at the 2013 edition of Summer of Sonic, including STC being in print for the first time in over ten years!  If that's not a good enough hook, we don't know what is, Boomers!

[amomentofsonicthecomic]

Well, I may not be an artist, but I have something to go on display tomorrow at Summer of Sonic 2013!

Yes, that’s right, I’ll be in attendance once more and, this year, I’ll be hanging around the Comics Zone for quite a lot of the day!  So feel free to drop by and have a look at what STC-O has to offer!  Sonic The Podcast will also have a presence (check my earlier reblog for more info on that).

There’ll also be a competition with a unique prize to be won- more on that later!

Sonic The Podcast at Summer of Sonic 2013!

All you lucky Boomers attending Summer of Sonic 2013 will have loads of lovely free gifts in you complimentary goody bags, but there's one gift that's not in the bag- an episode of Sonic The Podcast!

STP regulars L. T., Shay and Stiv will be hanging out at the Comics Zone for most of the day (which makes sense considering Stiv is the editor of Sonic The Comic Online and Shay is a writer and artist for the comic!) and if you head over there to say hi (which you should, we're all lovely people) you'll see a couple of signs with a download link or, if you prefer, QR Code to scan which will let you download Episode 10 of Sonic The Podcast months before everyone else gets to hear it!

Why Episode 10 in particular?  Because our special guest host is none other than Summer of Sonic organiser Adam "T-Bird" Tuff, who joins us to look at the Sonic stories in issues 1-6 of Sonic The Comic (yes, the wait is over for those of you who have been asking)!

The download link will be removed next week so you'll have to act fast to claim your download.  To non-attendees, don't worry, the episode will appear in the same form down the line; this is just a nice bonus for those attending the UK's Sonic convention!  Hope to see some of you guys there!

[sonicthepodcast]

Our first ever Bonus Episode is now online.  It's Speed Reading: 20 Years of Sonic The Comic, a documentary put together by L. T. inspecting why many STC fans love this classic comic.

New episode coming soon, guys, hang tight!

[sonicthepodcast]

To round off today's festivities, STP brings you a second episode as L. T., Shay and Stiv are joined by new hopefully-regular host Pete Murphy to cover Casino Night, Hill Top Terror and The Kid Cruel Caper!

Enjoy, guys!

[sonicthepodcast]

It's Sonic The Comic's 20th birthday!  To celebrate, here's the first of two new STP episodes coming today.  Enjoy, Boomers, and grab a slice of cake while you're at it.
