Hi, ive mentioned this before but you have the classic/adventure era sonic super specials but not the modern ones. could you possibly upload those?
admin
Hi FJ,
Sonic Super Special Magazines are now available here: https://grabber.zone/comics/sonic-super-special-magazine/
They mostly consist of reprints but there’s some neat interviews and plenty of other bonus stuff.
FJ
way past cool, thanks!
Alex
Why do the Kodomo Spanish scans stop at issue 39? Is it just a matter of not having the scans yet? Kodomo has published way beyond 39 at this point and the fan translations aren’t the best quality / most consistent.
igor
It’s because the guy who scans the comics doesn’t update them… also, the fans translations are good if you read the “Sonic Team Argentina” and “Sonic Sunset” ones, they’re the best quality out there, almost no difference between them and the official ones
Astroni
I see that you also have IDW translations here. I do not see the Polish version, so I invite you to copy mine, fanmade: https://sonic-po-polsku.blogspot.com/
(Not yet incomplete, but I try to complement it over time.)
admin
Hi, that’s neat, thank you. Could you please upload all the issues in a single zip archive to Google Drive or MEGA?
Astroni
Sure. Over the weekend I will review the recent bugs and link the package here.
Astroni
Ok, here is the first pack with 12 very last issues: https://k00.fr/sonicidwpl . I am gonna add the other 20 there in two to three days. (You can save this link and delete the message so as not to make spam.)

FJ
lol thats exactly what it is my bad!
also you are missing the “modern archie era” sonic super specials
FJ
hey, random suggestion, what if you changed your grabber zone logo to one of those spider robots in chemical plant zone from sonic 2? otherwise its not super obvious that this is a SONIC comic website. just sayin.
dontreadme

sorry uhh
you probably sick of me but uhh yeah-
dontreadme
I FOUND ANOTHER CALLED TEAM DARK SUPERNOVA (https://teamdarksupernovaodyssey.tumblr.com/)
dontreadme
Okay
so
like i said i dont want to swamp you or anything
but
i found out about a few more fan comics
one is called “The Heart of a Monster” by superemeralds, I found it on comic fury (https://comicfury.com/read/thoam/comics/1724757)
another is called “Sonic the Hedgehog: Bleak circumstances” i think, it’s by a user called “HT Doodles” on twitter and DA (https://www.deviantart.com/ht-doodles / https://linktr.ee/HTDoodles)
nice job so far, though! i understand running this site must take a lot of work, and i appreciate this site exists at all and all the effort and resources put into it. I understand if you might not be able to add the comics or if it might take a while.
dontreadme
note:
i found M O R E – –
it’s one called “A Piece of the Past” or “Pieces of the past” (https://www.deviantart.com/ketlike/art/A-Piece-of-the-Past-Old-Wounds-867208159 / https://twitter.com/i/events/1435553240834260995)
and another one called “Out of the Blue” (https://www.tumblr.com/out-of-the-blue-comic / https://www.deviantart.com/artisyone/gallery/59937034/out-of-the-blue-sonic-manga-comic)

Dont suggest fancomics to be added, I follow the author on Tumblr and they were upset that the comic was reposted here, since it was done without their consent. Stop telling this site to just steal from hardworking artists
Chaos Coffin
Dear Grabber Zone please don’t listen to this person and keep archiving good fancomics. Tumblr, Deviant Art and Twitter are blocked in my country and this site is a great way to explore new content. Nobody’s stealing anything, there’s always a link to the author.
dontreadme
I don’t want to pressure you or anything haha, but i just found out about a fancomic called “sonic rift” by spacecolonie on twitter and it seems to be on DA too
dontreadme
Also, something else I wanted to add: some of the comics labeled as ‘fancomics’ don’t show up when you go to the fancomics list. Example: The Murder Of Me / TMOM doesn’t show up there, even though it’s labeled as a fancomic
admin
Added page navigation, please check if it works on your device
dontreadme
It works now!
Twistyverse
Unrelated but, I want to inform you that there is a typo in “commetns” on the homepage, maybe you could fix that? Thanks.
dontreadme
Hello, I have a question!
Are there certain guidelines or rules you follow that limit the fancomics collection here? Or is it just because of other reasons? (Ex. being busy, not knowing, etc)
I found some cool ones that are on Twitter and DA but could really use a collection of them in one place. Btw, love what you’re doing here!
admin
Hi, thank you!
I’m the only person who updates this archive and I do it when I have spare time. But I’m trying to keep track of updating all the major comics without delays.
There’s lots of fan comics all over the internet and I’m not sure I know about the existence of every single one of them. I’ll gladly add any good stuff if you can provide me the names of the projects or the direct links!
dontreadme
Ah okay! Well, one I recently found out about is called IDOL✮AMY! / IDOL✮AMY! AU and it’s made by a twitter with the @ kumo_zd. Afaik, it’s on pixiv, tumblr, and twitter. it has a lot of pages and i’d say it’s popular enough!
admin
IDOL✮AMY uploaded, thanks for the info

Hi!
I wanted to ask about your upload schedule of the comics.
Nearly one month ago, I shared the Persian and Italian fan translations of IDW Sonic comics through email. I know uploading that amount of comics takes time, but I wanted to ask when the process will begin
Thank you again for all the time and effort spent for archiving and preserving all of these wonderful comics
MoienGZ88
I wanted to thank you and leave a question. First of all, many thanks for your efforts in preserving the Sonic comics, especially the Archie series which is super hard to find now legally in digital format. And here’s my question: There are many more fan translations and official translations of IDW Sonic comics in other languages (other than Russian, Spanish, Japanese, and Portuguese). Is there a way to share them with the admin/admins of the site?
admin
Hi, you’re welcome!
If you have scans or digital rips, you can send them to me directly via e-mail: [email protected]

I can finally read the Sonic/Mega Man stuff and all the IDW comics when they come out without having to go off of preview pages or Speed Reading

Thank you as ever for the dilligent efforts to upload high quality comics in an easy-to-reference manner. I hate digging into my externals when I just need a reference. I was initially surprised to see that this site was going back on their word to not upload the IDW run – but I think that it is never a bad thing to make comics more accessible for those who cannot afford them, especially now that IDW has got a large backlog that purchasing individual issues and miniseries is a triple-digit investment.
I was confused for a moment to not be able to find the Knuckles miniseries – so, I will put this here for other readers; the Knuckles miniseries as well as others such as Princess Sally and Tails, have been compounded into the Archie subheading of ‘Classic Mini Series’. Rejoice, it is now easier than ever to read Archie!
admin
You’re welcome! Thank you for your kind words.
Yeah, I think I’ll update the thumbnail so it’s more obvious that “Classic Mini Series” collects not only the original #0-3.

Cool. As a regular ReadComicOnline user, I’m glad I finally have an ad-free alternative. Keep it up.
