'''''Sonichu #0''''' is the first issue of [[Christian Weston Chandler]]'s "[[Sonichu (comic)|masterpiece]]". At this point, the comic was ''almost'' entirely about [[Sonichu]] and [[Rosechu]], although bits of Chris's life still managed to find their way in.
'''''Sonichu'' #1''' is the second issue of the [[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu comic]]. Unlikely as it might sound, this one is actually even more [[slow-in-the-minds|retarded]] than [[Sonichu 0|''Sonichu'' #0]].


The "hand-drawn premiere issue" is a special zero issue. In the comics industry, zero issues are used as either a sales-enhancing gimmick or a special preview of work that will not truly begin until issue #1. We're not sure which one Chris was going for.
Having only just created [[Sonichu]] from a [[Pikachu]] mutated by exposure to [[Sonic]] and his Chaos Emeralds, Chris immediately blows his wad by jumping right into the first Sonic/Sonichu team-up. (All imaginative ten-year-olds roleplay themselves in their favorite imaginary worlds, but only Christian thinks his preteen fantasies are marketable.) It would not be until [[Sonichu 2|''Sonichu'' #2]] that the way past cool [[Electric Hedgehog Pokémon]] would be out of [[Sonic]]'s shadow... which happens to be about the time Chris starts hogging the spotlight.


The comic consists of Sonichu's first three adventures. In "Sonichu's Origin," the core cast of the series is introduced as Sonichu and Rosechu are created. Then, in "Genesis of the Lovehogs," the two protagonists meet and immediately fall in love. Finally, in "Sonichu vs. Naitsirhc," our yellow hero does battle with his first real villain, who but foreshadows the challenges awaiting the hedgehogs in the following issue. Bonus material in ''Sonichu'' #0 includes various advertisements for imaginary Sonichu products, "classic" Sonichu comic strips drawn outside of the narrative of the main comic book.
In the tradition of all great comic book crossovers, ''Sonichu'' #1 pits Sonic and Sonichu against two titanic villains, namely Sonic's enemy [[Ivo Robotnik]] and Pokémon bad guy [[Giovanni]]. It's as if he doesn't want you to forget where he stole all this shit from. Further complicating the plot, it is made clear that last issue's villain, Naitsirhc, is indeed Giovanni's son, who acted on orders from his father to collect Sonichu's genetic code. Together, Robotnik and Giovanni would shake the foundations of CWCville by introducing its next major character, Bill the Scientist. Also, Black Sonichu or something.


Chris began working on ''Sonichu'' #0 by creating the cover on 24 November [[2004]] (although many of the classic strips predate this). He completed the primary story on 15 March [[2005]], although he was inspired by real-life events to return to this work and add the first-ever sub-episode featuring himself.

Sonichu #1 is the second issue of the Sonichu comic. Unlikely as it might sound, this one is actually even more retarded than Sonichu #0.

Having only just created Sonichu from a Pikachu mutated by exposure to Sonic and his Chaos Emeralds, Chris immediately blows his wad by jumping right into the first Sonic/Sonichu team-up. (All imaginative ten-year-olds roleplay themselves in their favorite imaginary worlds, but only Christian thinks his preteen fantasies are marketable.) It would not be until Sonichu #2 that the way past cool Electric Hedgehog Pokémon would be out of Sonic's shadow... which happens to be about the time Chris starts hogging the spotlight.

In the tradition of all great comic book crossovers, Sonichu #1 pits Sonic and Sonichu against two titanic villains, namely Sonic's enemy Ivo Robotnik and Pokémon bad guy Giovanni. It's as if he doesn't want you to forget where he stole all this shit from. Further complicating the plot, it is made clear that last issue's villain, Naitsirhc, is indeed Giovanni's son, who acted on orders from his father to collect Sonichu's genetic code. Together, Robotnik and Giovanni would shake the foundations of CWCville by introducing its next major character, Bill the Scientist. Also, Black Sonichu or something.
