Sonic Comics is a discontinued digital reading app released by iVerse Media on December 21, 2010. It served as a centralized app for purchasing and reading issues from the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics.
The app was available to download for free until its removal in 2016. After the app was removed, all the issues were moved to the Archie Comics app.

- Dozens of tweaks and bug fixes to improve the overall app experience
- The largest change, however, is the all-new "Original Page View" viewing option for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad!
- This new feature allows you to see HD versions of the original comic book pages EXACTLY as the comic book creators intended! These unaltered pages are not adapted for the screen, and you are not guided through the viewing experience. You can freely pinch and zoom however you like. Intelligent zooming will focus in directly on the screen where ever you tap, letting you explore the artwork in more detail, or read smaller text more clearly.
- On the iPad you now have a choice between using this single page landscape view, or switching to a two page spread landscape view. These two views can be toggled back and forth with the press of a button.
- On the iPhone or iPod Touch you can now choose between viewing the original unaltered pages or an adapted view customized specifically for the iPhone screen!
