Original stories

  1. Sonic the Hedgehog · Doomsday, Part 3 #

    Super Sonic’s prison is about to burst apart, and the resulting blast threatens every electronic system on Mobius. While Sonic’s team tracks Sidewinder across the Special Zone, Vector helps Equinox recharge Omni-Viewer, who returns with news of Robotnik’s assault on the Floating Island. Sonic defeats Sidewinder’s gang, then faces an impossible choice between going home and leaving Super Sonic loose. The electromagnetic danger suggests a bold answer: teleport the exploding asteroid to Mobius.

  2. Knuckles · Victims, Part 3 #

    Robotnik is moments from linking the Emerald Hill folk permanently to his biological computer when Knuckles tears free and wrecks the main controls. Guardian robots swarm him as Zachary protects the villain and Robotnik switches to a backup panel. Knuckles evades the machines but is felled by Zachary’s arm cannon before he can stop the second activation. Then a spectacular event in the sky interrupts the villains and changes the battle’s course.

  3. Decap Attack · Dead! Part 3 #

    The Death Train reaches Hell Central, but Chuck continues objecting to the mistake that brought living travellers below. The Thin Controller recognises the problem yet decides to keep the visitors, until Professor Frank N Stein captures her attention with his accent and appearance. She takes the smitten Professor on a tour and orders Max D Cap to release the others. Rupert’s wedding jokes do little to reassure Frank about his unwanted engagement.

  4. Sonic's World · No Exit #

    A protest outside Citadel Robotnik becomes an open rebellion, with Cat Adie reporting as Freedom Fighters and citizens challenge Grimer’s rule. The acting tyrant summons Badniks from neighbouring zones, turning the streets into a battlefield. Tails is shot down, while Amy and Johnny try to reach the Citadel’s weapons and find themselves trapped by Vermin and Newtrons. Despite the overwhelming force, the crowd refuses to surrender until a sudden explosion changes everything.

    Script: Lew Stringer · Art: Andy Pritchett · Letters: Tom Frame
