Official Site is up! It's pretty much the same thing though and no new screens that I can tell of, but it's up.
According to Diamond Comics, Archie's Sonic The Hedgehog #178 is on sale in comic shops starting today.
Famed STC artist Richard Elson reveals all to Sonic the Comic Online in a new interview, complete with unseen concept designs. Questions range from his early career, how STC was produced, and Mario the Comic!
In the full-colour comic strips, Sonic is trapped in another Chaotix Crew caper when an intergalactic debt agency invades Mobius, looking to repossess... the Floating Island?! Meanwhile, Big the Cat is marked for death by the sinister Family in the brand-new 2-parter called, yes, Kill Big! And in Knuckles, the terrifying God of Death finally manifests and no one is getting out alive...

ICEknight @ The GHZ translated a Spanish interview Shakidna posted at Sonic Cult:
C. Doriga:We're almost running out of time, one last question: Are you going to include SEGA's mascot, Sonic The Hedgehog?
M. Sakurai:Well... That's a tough question, I'll tell you that Sonic's already in the game, but we're still waiting for a last confirmation from SEGA. Due to the proximity of the game's release, SEGA's deadline to submit their confirmation is the 26th this month, and in that date the official site will be updated about the inclusion o not of SEGA's mascot in the game. I'm personally crossing my fingers.
