Description

Based on an awesome itchy and scratchy poster i have, and in genral on 1920's cartoon's and sonic and the fleetway sonic the comic.

inked and coloured in photoshop over pencil's and assembled and designed in photoshop

"The year's 1926 Egmont design buy's out Fleetway animation a stuido that is increasinly losing profit to the big animation studio's lacking a betty boop or a mickey mouse style mascot, fleetway hadn't had a hit cartoon in years. On a trip back from the east Yuri Nathan (Yuji Naka) suggests the idea of DR walrus vs speedy the armadillo. The idea is past around the stuido untill Nigel Kitching and Richie Elson (richard elson) change the charcters to Dr Ivo Egg and Sonic 'the lucky speedster.' The first cartoon Orgin of Sonic is a 1926 hit, quickly followed by Lewis Stringer (lew stringer) turn with the character the likewise hit Sonic Funnies.

Christmas saw another new sonic cartoon Sonic and Amy as Sonic ended up traped for a month with away on a magic island with his Girlfriend and trickster Amy as well as an evil doopleganger. For 1927 all eye's were on new sonic director Ricard Burtons first sonic cartoon, Nigel Kitching's 'High Speed Disater' sonic find's a floating island in the sky were his foe is Dr Ivo is making an Egg Ship with wacky hijinx and brilliant music from Rober' Corona (bob corona) it was Sonic's big hit yet.

1926?  That actually predates both Betty Boop and Mickey Mouse.  It would also predate sound in movies by about a year.  Felix the Cat and the titular character of Disney's Alice Comedies would be Sonic's main rivals.
