   • Running Wild, Part 1 Sonic the Hedgehog

   Sonic visits Porker on the Floating Island to check he is well, not to recruit him; in the ruined Emerald Chamber a robot head startles him and the ledge gives way into the Chaos Emerald pit. Emerald energy births Super Sonic, who punches through the roof hunting Amy Rose and shreds an SBS Trooper ship en route. Beside Bob Beaky's circus, Amy is coaching Tails with a crossbow when Johnny bursts out with Porker's warning - too late: Super Sonic is already on them.

   • Running Wild, Part 2 Sonic the Hedgehog

   Super Sonic tears after Amy, ploughs through Bob Beaky's caravan when she leaps clear, then shreds their rock cover with eye-beams. Buried under a cliff-face he simply punches free; Johnny's shout for Tails to fetch help sparks Amy's plan instead - bait him with the biplane. Super downs the departing craft in flames, laughs himself weak, and snaps back into Sonic amid the wreckage, convinced he has murdered his friends.

   • Running Wild, Part 3 Sonic the Hedgehog

   Cloaked and broken, Sonic nurses a cola in Spike's Place until bounty hunters unmask him and rage flips him Super again, flattening the bar. The Freedom Fighters - alive, having flown the biplane by remote - unveil a Star Post; Amy and the Kintobor Computer yank Super inside and peel the emerald fury off blue Sonic. Kintobor hints the demon may now stalk the Special Zone, but Sonic can only thank the friends who risked everything.

   Sonic the Comic #84

   • Heroes & Villains, Part 1 Sonic the Hedgehog

   Omni-Viewer drops Sonic into Chaotix HQ to warn that Super Sonic now roams the Special Zone; the crew shrug and ferry him to New Tek City on Planet Meridian instead. Justice Brigade and Discriminators brawl for no cause Sonic can name, and he cannot tell heroes from villains until a wolfman punches him. Police scatter both sides; Chaotix flee through Omni while Sonic is nicked and past caring.

   Sonic the Comic #88

   • The Ultimate Nightmare Sonic the Hedgehog

   Sonic clocks Super Sonic's shifted hands inside Omni - time slowed, not stopped - just as Mighty opens a stray chest of green nightmare smoke. Sidewinder's gang crawls out miniature, hunting the trapped demon as a slave; Sonic floors Lightmare, then Bio-Hazard's vomit soaks the lord instead. The villains shrink home with the antidote, leaving only a name: Nack the Weasel.

   • The Tomb, Part 1 Sonic the Hedgehog

   From Chaotix's Special Zone satellite Sonic finally raises Metropolis - Super is still sealed in Omni's slowed field, so he will not come home while that threat lasts. They ferry the captive toward the Black Asteroid's hollow centre, meaning to bury him and collapse the sole tunnel with a Graviton Bomb. Mouse-sized Nack, paid by Sidewinder, slips aboard, restores himself and shrinks the crew; the craft smashes a wall, Chaotix end up jarred in Nack's fist, and only a miniature Sonic stays free.

   • The Tomb, Part 2 Sonic the Hedgehog

   Mouse-scale Sonic Spin-Attacks Nack's nose twice, knocks the cowboy hat that hides the shrink capsules, and overdoes the ray until the weasel winks out of existence. Vector works the remaining gadgets; sizes restored, they dump Omni and Super at the asteroid's heart and trigger the Graviton Bomb, sealing both under rubble. Hope is all they have that the tomb will hold - if not, Super will wake angrier than ever.

   New Tek City faces a bizarre double-sun scare while Lord Sidewinder hunts for the power of Super Sonic. Sonic and Chaotix foil Doctor Plague’s attempt to unleash a lethal virus, though a warning from Porker Lewis is cut short.

   The blazing object above New Tek City is revealed as the Black Asteroid, where Super Sonic has turned himself into a huge store of energy to escape Omni-Viewer’s time trap. Omni cannot yet send Sonic home, so the hedgehog helps Chaotix confront Lightmare. Her nightmare weapon reveals that Sidewinder’s plan to command Super Sonic is hopeless, and that she is secretly his daughter. While Sonic’s group pursues the madman, Vector stays behind to help Omni prepare a desperate solution.
