Sonic the Comic #195

Reprinted stories

1. Sonic the Hedgehog · Mission to the Metropolis Zone #

   With Commander Brutus AWOL, Sonic, Amy and Johnny slip into Metropolis Zone at midnight for sabotage - until a Trooper grabs Sonic from behind and only Amy escapes. At Citadel Robotnik the hedgehog and rabbit reveal the capture was bait while Amy wipes the Info Centre mainframe; Troopers seize her mid-delete, but her crossbow bolt misses them and hits the delete key instead. Computers explode, the trio flee the burning Citadel, and Robotnik is left with one more headache.

   First appeared in issue 74.

2. Knuckles · Troubled Waters, Part 2 #

   Knuckles punches the electrified Octonaught, gets swatted aside, then races circular rock stacks as Claw blasts each pillar. One last circuit topples stone onto the mecha and wrecks it; Knuckles finds the chest safe and presses an oar into Claw's claws. The crab rows them to shore, complaining about prisoners' rights the whole way.

   First appeared in issue 83.

3. Amy · Spot of Bother #

   Amy and Tekno save a town from Badniks. Norris Wimple, fascinated by the machines they destroy, tries to arrange another encounter so he can study them.

   First appeared in issue 108.

4. Sonic's World · Mock the Doc #

   Robotnik's compulsory evening broadcast is hijacked by Mock the Doc, a pirate game show where ordinary viewers dress up as the dictator and ridicule him. Grimer sends Troopers to silence the studio, but the fake Robotniks issue conflicting orders and the machines destroy one another on air. Robotnik arrives too late, finding the crew gone and the cameras still running to capture his humiliation.

   First appeared in issue 96.

5. Sonic's World · Hidden Danger, Part 2 #

   Sonic drags Tails clear of the invisible jungle robot and skims a lake so his legs spray water that paints the machine; vines plus a Spin Attack crack the cloak until they shove it off a cliff into the drink, where exposed wires short. Watching, Robotnik still dreams of an invisible army - until Grimer admits the cloaking plans themselves turned invisible and he cannot rebuild. Grimer wisely chooses to vanish too.

   First appeared in issue 78.
