Original stories

    Freak weather hits Mobius in minutes: blizzards, heatwaves and floods. Sonic notices weather gerbil Windy Wallis never misses a forecast and confronts her at the studio. She built a weather machine for revenge after Robotnik fell and turns a storm on him. He kicks rainwater into the device, spawning a tornado that flings her out before the machine explodes.

    Amnesiac Super Sonic suffers nightmares of his former demonic self while lodging with Madge and her husband Arthur. Money worries and a row push him to leave so he can discover who he is.

  3. Decap Attack · Life with the Snagsbys #

    Chuck and Head spend a last morning at a seaside bed and breakfast after the castle collapse. Tripwires, a biting fish in the porridge and a flying knife leave Chuck unfazed while Head panics. Head finally blurts that silent guest Mr Winkleton is dead and the Snagsbys mean to keep them forever. Outside, Chuck scolds Head for seeing the worst in nice people.

  4. Sonic's World · Invasion of the Veg Heads, Part 2 #

    Sonic frees himself and Harry from King Edward while Farmer Nige charges his own crops. At the abandoned Chemical Plant Zone they find toxic waste leaking into the river that mutated the soil. Sonic returns to free Nige; other farmers catch the potato king and want him cooked. Sonic forbids it, the Veg-Heads blame Edward, and Nige grants them land if they live in peace.
