Sonichu was Christian Weston Chandler's official poorly drawn and written comic book adventures of him and his (imaginary) friends.
Introduction
The inadvertent shattering of his heart from Sarah Hammer, along with the expulsion from English class and the confrontation with Mary Lee Walsh provided the impetus for Christian to kick start the comic series in full force. It initially served as a complement to his Love Quest as a feeble attempt to link an accomplishment, or boast his own self-worth to unsuspecting prey... after all, Sonichu is "Zappin' to the Extreme"! He is Christian Weston Chandler's only son, and the first way past cooler Electric Hedgehog Pokémon!
If you haven't closed this page yet:
- It's because despite reading, and re-reading the words... it still doesn't make it any sense
- You're in a state of shock (ANOTHER VICTIM OF SONICHU'S LIGHTNING, JERKOP!)
- You are an aspiring autistic artist looking for some inspiration
- You're laughing so hard you can't wait for what comes next!
The comics series has been hosted on the various incarnations of Christian's homepage (currently hosted nowhere), and was originally promoted from his now defunct Sonichu business cards. Each new addition to the series would proudly sport the now-infamous to be continued disclaimer page. In fact, the comics are not updated with any regular frequency: In five years Chris has yet to complete twelve issues. This, of course, from a man who is not in employment, education or training. With a page-rate such as this you know you can count on the quality!
Reader's guide to Sonichu
How-to and overview
The Sonichu series began with #0 instead of #1, and each issue contained multiple separately-numbered "episodes," so readers often lost track of which story happened in which issue. For example, Black Sonichu was introduced in Episode 4, which was the fifth story in the overall series and the first story in Sonichu #1, which was in turn the second comic. Further confounding matters were the Sub-Episodes about Christian's Love Quest, which appeared sporadically throughout issues #0-4 and were numbered separately from the main stories. The original filenames were also misnumbered as #0 is referenced as #1, and this continued through the following issues.
Issues #0-1 featured Sonichu as the unchallenged star of the series, with Christian as a supporting character also appearing in the backup strips. By issue #2, the comic had seamlessly transitioned to Christian encountering people from his real life in shitty anime battles. Token attempts to tell Sonichu stories and introduce Sonichu spin-off characters were made in #3, but all pretense was dropped in #4-7 as the series becomes a vehicle for Christian, as the leader of a heroic band of muppets, to battle against an old woman and a group of ineffectual security guards, and later on, against people who didn't like the comic.
The comic series was presented as if it were a cartoon or anime (which might explain why the comics mimic visual effects that work in an audiovisual context but fail on paper), and was encapsulated into seasons with various episodes (or series, for some of our Eurofag friends). Issue 10 was intended to wrap up the first season of Sonichu, however, it appears that Christian will fall slightly short of the standard 26 episode 'full season' run. This opened a can of worms as to the current vision of the comics: Was Sonichu intended to be the hit action/adventure soap-opera TV show that is broadcast in CWCville, or was it the historical documentation of Christian's and Sonichu's life and times? Perhaps it was destined to be the Gospel from the Stay-at-Home Autistic Virgin Male, hallowed be His name. Either way it remained unanswered whether Christian continues on with the series because he has a vain, misguided belief that some TRUE and HONEST soul would consider these as 'storyboards' for proper licensing and production.
Art imitating life
Sensing some criticism for the self-centeredness of his work, Christian wrote himself out of the series toward the end of Sonichu #7, trapping the Christian character in the Time Void so that the storyline could focus on other characters. Despite this, Sonichu still served as a strong Mary Sue character, as seen in Sonichu fighting 4-cent_garbage.com in Sonichu #8. This self-imposed exile lasted about five minutes, as Christian managed to make a cameo on page 18 of Sonichu #8.
He returned from the Time Void at the end of issue #9, giving all non-Christian characters approximately 1 issue to have the spotlight to themselves, during which they mostly talked about how much they loved Christian and hoped he would return safely. On the final page of the issue, Chris claimed that he would write himself out of the series permanently, giving his characters the opportunity to shine on their own. He went back on this promise almost the moment he made it — issue #10 is one of the most Christian-centric of the entire series.
Following the theft of his Medallions of Fail by Blanca, Christian immediately released a new comic adapting the theft into his fictional canon and explaining that the TRUE source of his power lay in his High School Ring of Fail. Since this story was necessarily set after Christian escapes the time void, it was deemed a special preview of Sonichu #10, despite the fact that Chris had at that point not finished Sonichu #8 or even begun Sonichu #9.
The entire Sonichu series has been faithfully adapted into audiobooks on YouTube.

Unfinished and unreleased issues
These comics are not yet completed by Chris, and most of them were briefly seen in videos during the Ivy saga. Most of the unreleased comics were obtained by trolls and publicly released.
Unfinished
- Chris began work on a special Christmas episode in mid-December 2009, but aside from that, only a cover exists. The release date was announced for 17 March 2010. Since Chris is a lazy fatass, and also due to Surfshack Tito and The Wallflower, the pages were never released. On 24 April 2010, the Sysop uploaded pages by a troll.
- So far only a cover exists.

Only special to be fully finished. | |
Chris has claimed that in total he plans to complete 50 to 100 issues in his life time.
Sonichu Season 2
On 27 May 2010, Chris announced that he was abandoning the CWCipedia to the trolls. However, in doing so, he abandoned the Sonichu franchise altogether thanks to his unfamiliarity with the copyright process. Due to this, the Sonichu franchise has been split between both Vivian Gee and Alec Benson Leary. Currently, a new season has begun thanks to Vivian's work.
