Tails · The Morbidden Hunt, Part 3 #
Prince Catalus presents Jimmy and Jilly to Tails; the cubs still treat lemonade and sword-play as fun rather than danger. Flown into Castle Morbidden, they learn Vulpecula's sport is a fox hunt, and her pursuit drives the three into a dead end.
First appeared in issue 30.
Sonic the Hedgehog · Mystery of the Sandopolis Zone, Part 1 #
Tails ferries Sonic to Sandopolis so he can scout Launch Base and sabotage the nearly restored Death Egg II. A Sandworm Badnik ambushes him; Knuckles watches but stays put, and Sonic finishes the worm with a reverse spin before both admit they share the same target. Captain Plunder, Filch and the Per'fessor interrupt, ignore Knuckles' warnings, and raise the Lost Pyramid of Sandopolis from the dunes.
