I used to be a huge fan of the comics. I started right at the Endgame saga and pretty much had every issue, including specials, up until 75. My first comic was actually the Knuckles Dark Legion mini series, and I collected all of those until 29 (almost completed the set, haha). So I have several in decent shape from that era.

I hadn't even paid attention to the comics until just before the Genesis saga came out, and I found myself wondering what has happened since then. I have been able to find summaries and issues online to get caught up, and then decided I would start collecting again, just for fun. I now have a few recent and some of the very early issues thanks to eBay.

So what all issues do you have, and do you still collect?

Issue 222. Period. I wish I could have more, but the Brookshires only had 222, 223, 215, and a genesis.

A lot. Some good condition, some not. The first comic I ever owned was a Sonic Archie Comic, however I didn't start collecting them till years later.

30 to 78, inclusive, plus a handful of a few made before then, a smaller handful of a few made after then, and a handful of specials and miniseries (including the original four-issue miniseries).

Do I read the series? No.

Do I collect it? Yes I do. I'm currently 30 issues away from a complete series (that's also including the Sonic X comic since it's continuity doesn't go with the rest of the Archie series) and plan to have it complete by next year. And when I say 30 issues, I mean issues, none of this Archive or TPB collected crap. I still collect those, but at the end of the day, I want the comics, not the trades. All my issues also grade from VF (8.0 and above) to NM (9.0 and above). Not bad work for for someone who at the beginning of the year had around 100 issues and currently now has just over 360 of them. And I have around 50 issues worth of doubles and even a couple of triples.

It'll be easier for me to list the issues I don't have.

Sonic the Hedgehog (Ongoing): #8-10, #21-23, #89-91, #98
Sonic Universe: #2
Knuckles the Echidna: #26, #27, #30, #32
Sonic X: #22-27, #29-31, #34, #36-40

Two comic boxes full? My first issue was #9 waaaaaaaay back in '93. ^^; I've since gone back and gotten the ones before too. I'm missing a lot in between 100 and 200, because I stopped caring for a couple years, but got back into it last year. I've got almost all of the Knuckles series, Super Specials, and the Princess Sally miniseries too. ...Thinking about giving Sonic Universe a shot soon, and trying to get my hands on the Tails miniseries. ^^;

So.... not as many as Prime seems to have- but a fair few.

I used to be a huge fan of the comics.

Heh. Me too.

So what all issues do you have, and do you still collect?

I'm 2 issues short of having a complete run up to StH#100 (missing #15, which I once had but lost, and #36); including 0-3 of the mini-series. I used to have a subscription, but I canceled it somewhere in the #170s.
Started reading & collecting again somewhere after the "Iron Dominion" arc.
Also, I still have the complete run of Knuckles the Echidna & most of the Sonic Super Specials.

Only SU 25-28

I don't know quite how many I have, but it's a lot. Probably most of the Sonic the Hedgehog run, excluding some issues here and there.My first issue was 46, or whatever the issue right before Endgame was... And I've gotten them since then (subscription, it's cheaper)... as well as buying issues off Ebay I didn't have. Since then, though, I've sold some of the really early issues on Ebay.
