UPDATE 1/11/22: Following the release of the Sonic Frontiers official comic prologue, Sega has now released a six minute animation telling Knuckles' story ahead of the events of the game.
"Knuckles knows every corner of his island and every secret it holds...or so he thought," reads Sega's tweet sharing the video.

ORIGINAL STORY 26/10/22: Sega has released an official comic as a prologue to the forthcoming Sonic Frontiers.
Called Sonic Frontiers Prologue: Convergence, it gives a little insight into the events leading up to the start of the game as Sonic and friends travel to the Starfall Islands in search of the chaos emeralds.
Part one of the comic was released on Twitter last week; now the second part has been published.

Both parts are just a handful of panels long, but they give some extra colour to the plot of Sonic Frontiers - complete with some nods to Sonic Adventure 1.

The cover of the comic is also nicely done.
The official Sonic Twitter account previously stated that a prequel animation is also on the way, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
Just to be clear, there's a prequel comic AND a prequel animation coming soon!
