Reprinted stories

  1. Sonic the Hedgehog · Project Brutus, Part 3 #

    Sonic, Amy and Johnny are chained together and paraded through the Pleasant Zone by Commander Brutus, while Robotnik furiously orders them brought to the Citadel at once. Brutus strikes a Trooper that urges obedience; Amy snatches the dropped gun and blasts him, and the shackled trio flee across a bridge the Troopers wreck behind them. Brutus's old SBS anti-gravity unit carries him over the gorge, and when he ignores Robotnik to finish them off, Sonic's spines flare and he becomes Super Sonic, snaps the chains and charges.

    First appeared in issue 65.

  2. Knuckles · The Homecoming, Part 3 #

    Absorbing Chaos Emerald power, the Guardian robot blasts Knuckles through a wall; believing him dead, Zachary reveals he and the machine were allies all along and means to crash the Floating Island onto Mobius as a monument to his genius. He flies off in the robot's head cockpit, but Knuckles survives, snaps an arm-wing and strands them both. The Island's orbit then drives them straight toward a mountain range.

    First appeared in issue 67.

  3. Tails · Furtual Reality #

    Tails follows an invitation to meet his fans at Casino Night Zone, only to find them wearing visors and firing at him as though he were a Badnik. Max Gamble's virtual-reality stunt makes the real danger too easy to dismiss, so Tails hauls the organiser down from his tower and turns the crowd against him. When the batteries die, Tails gets an autograph request?only for Sonic, naturally.

    First appeared in issue 96.

  4. Sonic's World · Cybernik Strikes Back, Part 3 #

    Before Shortfuse and Tekno can flee the Chemical Plant, Metamorphia attacks, slipping into gas, axe-hands that shatter on Megatal, then a colossal tentacled sea form. She finally seizes Tekno and flies off on metal wings, leaving Shortfuse beside his own bomb as the factory erupts. His armour holds, but debris pins him underwater and he blacks out.

    First appeared in issue 65.
