The longest-running comic series based on a videogame character is the US comic Sonic the Hedgehog, published by Archie Comics. It first appeared in July 1993 and its 290th - and last - edition was printed on 28 December 2016. In addition to the main series, Archie Comics has released a number of spin-off titles and publications over the years, the longest-running of which is "Sonic Universe", which published its first edition in February 2009.
