Sonic's all washed up, so I guess that makes him... Hog-washed? Does that work? Whatever
Some might say that, in the wake of Sonic Generations, a parody featuring Sonic as a washed up, down-and-out douchebag has come a little late, but fuck it - Sonic still has a few years of shovellin' ahead of him if he wants to truly be free from the spectre of the notorious 'Sonic Cycle', plus a proper, long-form series from the LowBrow team (they of Dorkly fame) is always welcome.
Far from being a star, Sonic is jobless, barely scraping rent and spends his days watching his favourite poster in lieu of owning an actual television. Taking jobs in a variety of videogames, Sonic fathers an illegitimate monster-child with the Mother Brain, falls into debt with mafia godfather Mario and eventually takes on his own empire with a pants-less Eggman and a murderous, demented Kirby.
Sonic For Hire displays the same quality production values of Dorkly Bits, but has the benefit of a coherent, multi-episode storyline. Three series in, the creators appear to be putting off the next batch of episodes while they make a Mega Man-centric animation, but click here to start watching the run so far.
