Sonic the Hedgehog is a weird series. The franchise was off the hook from the start, and has veered in psychotic directions since then, driving some fans to quit SEGA's mascot cold turkey. But recently, things have changed, and it's all thanks to Ian Flynn.
A Sonic fan since the early 1990s, Flynn started out as a writer for Archie Comics' iconic Sonic the Hedgehog series. Since then, he's risen through the ranks to become the chief writer for the entire Sonic franchise. The man loves the wild world of Sonic, and the recent return of the blue Blur's edgiest villain proves why he's the best thing to happen to the series.
