There are currently three major comic continuities, technically four.

''Sonic the Comic'' was a British line that nobody heard of outside of England until the internet got involved. Heavily based on a scrapped concept for a western Sonic origin story, where Doctor Robotnik was formerly a kind scientist called Kintobor who worked with Sonic to drain the world's evil with Chaos Emeralds before a lab accident turned him into the fat mad scientist we all know. Initially more game-accurate than the Archie comic, as time went on it diverged into its own direction with plots involving evil fish-aliens and Arabian Nights themed planets smaller than an atom. The most infamous original element is Super Sonic being portrayed as a psychopathic split personality caused by Sonic being exposed to too much Chaos Energy, which eventually managed to get his own body seperate from the original Sonic and become a recurring villain. 

''Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog'' was the original American comic line, which became the basis for Sonic SatAM - see below. This is divided into two sub-continuities; Pre- and Post-Super Genesis Wave(The Super Genesis Wave being one of those big Crisis On Infinite Earths/Flashpoint-style continuity super-retcons. The real reason for which being a lawsuit regarding one of the writers, a man named Ken Penders. See a more appropriate Wiki for the full ugly affair, but the most important part being that Penders left the company and took nearly everything he contributed to the universe with him. 

''IDW's Sonic the Hedgehog'' is the latest Sonic comic line, and trying its hardest to adhere to Sega's new rules for Sonic's universe, setting itself directly after ''Sonic Forces''.

Both ''Sonic the Comic'' and ''Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog'' have unofficial online continuations of their continuities, not related to Sega but continuing the [[canon]] of their respective comics.
