I think it's best not to have anything to do with Sonichu at all. Between itself and its swarm of trolls, it has an unholy life of its own, and I think it's best not to get involved with that lot. They're not nice people.
Also, I thought we purged all mention of it from the wiki recently due to incessant nastiness about it. I'll have to double-check.

I don't think the question has ever come up before. Is it a fancomic of an existing, 'published' story, or is it essentially original, no matter how bad? If the former, you could probably PPC it, though the 'how' might be tricky, but if the latter, and it's just a rubbish story, no.
I would advise against it, though, unless you plan to write your PPC mission as a comic itself; changing medium is rather difficult for such a complex parody as this.
I'm fairly certain I know what comic this is. by

My guess is that the PPC probably handles badfic in any format, but because most fics are written in prose story form, most missions are to normal fanfic. In addition, written stories are (obviously) not the only media the PPC protects; there are also TV shows, movies, musicals/plays, and anime/manga.
(In case you've never had the pleasure, Sonichu is a very, very bad fan comic. That it's listed means it's probably up for PPCing if someone is brave or stupid enough. Or maybe someone's already claimed it, I don't know; point being, though, it's up there and it's a fan comic.)
Might be an interesting challenge to PPC a comic; a lot of the usual missions deal with messed-up wording and how it expresses itself, but with a fancomic, you'd have bad art to worry about too. Disguising the agents might be interesting; with particularly bad art you might end up seriously deformed or even outright two-dimensional. Ever read "Flatland"?
Anyway, sounds interesting. I don't have too much experience to tell, but I think it'd be possible.
