"Many Hands" is the pen-name for an artist, or artists, who worked on the Archie Sonic titles.
It's more than likely that "Many Hands" is actually multiple people, owing to the name.
"Many Hands" art has been deemed the worst in the history of the series, with the majority slamming his/her poorly drawn characters and, in one instance, artistic laziness.

Background Information
- It's worth noting that so far none of the stories containing "Many Hands" art has been reprinted anywhere.
- Sonic Super Special #15's main story "Naugus Games" is arguably the most infamous of the "Many Hands" stories, due to the majority of the artwork being obscured by pitch-black darkness and white blizzards, effectively making it so that the artist(s) has less to draw.
- The story was later partially remade as a flashback story in Sonic Free Comic Book Day 2011, complete with a revised script by Ian Flynn and completely new art by Steven Butler.
