As the Xbox 360 and PS3 debut of Sonic the Hedgehog (and Shadow, and Silver, and bit-parts from various other speed-running, ring-jumping mammals) approaches, we've got our hands on artwork for four of the bosses you'll be facing off against.
Mechanical beasties that wouldn't look out of place in one of Sega's mech action titles, and a final boss that looks big enough to make even Sonic's spikes wilt in dismay, will all be crashing the hedgehog's 15th birthday like the party-poopers bosses are.

There's nothing worse than a pesky flying boss, except perhaps a pesky flying boss that's also a massive robotic dragon, like the Wyvern here. That head-mounted gun's a bit of overkill - and we'll be interested to see exactly who will be sitting in the cockpit.
Sonic gets an official lore timeline that goes "tens of thousands of years" into the past and 200 years into the future, and somehow canonizes a party game spin-off
We'll finally learn if Sonic is faster than the Flash as Sega's famous hedgehog and pals team up with the Justice League in a new mash-up comic
