Sonic the Hedgehog · Doomsday, Part 1 #
New Tek City faces a bizarre double-sun scare while Lord Sidewinder hunts for the power of Super Sonic. Sonic and Chaotix foil Doctor Plague’s attempt to unleash a lethal virus, though a warning from Porker Lewis is cut short. With Sonic still stranded in the Special Zone, the returning Omni-Viewer announces a planetary threat. Sidewinder, meanwhile, believes the second sun has finally revealed his prize.
First appeared in issue 97.
Knuckles · Victims, Part 1 #
Knuckles returns to the Floating Island expecting to repair the Emerald Chamber, but finds the Emerald Hill community missing. A frightened Porker Lewis emerges from hiding and tries to send a warning to Sonic before Robotnik’s attack destroys the communication link. The echidna then discovers the culprits: Robotnik, the rebuilt Doctor Zachary and a force of guardian robots. Their capture is clearly only the opening move in a much larger scheme.

Sonic's World: Amy & Tekno · Spooked #
Amy and Tekno investigate Old Hill Zone's empty house after locals hear terrible wailing and nick it the Haunted House Zone. Inside, falling gargoyles and masonry lead them to the source: Fabian Vane rehearsing a comeback. His singing weakens the foundations until the building collapses on his demo tapes; Amy notes he can at least say he brought down the house.
First appeared in issue 116.
Sonic's World · The Monster Wakes, Part 2 #
The newly awakened dragon drives off the Freedom Fighters, scorching Shortfuse and sending the team scrambling. Amy stops Shortfuse from firing a full-power blast at the fleeing creature, while Tails follows to apologise and hears that the dragon was roused a thousand years early. It refuses to join the fight against Robotnik for now, and Amy quietly worries that Shortfuse's temper could endanger the team.
First appeared in issue 95.
Sonic's World · Boiling Point #
Freedom Fighters infiltrate a Chemical Plant factory where kidnapped workers are forced to manufacture Toxo Cubes, dangerous blocks that can poison water. The rescue goes wrong when Shortfuse spots his rival Vermin running the operation and attacks instead of following orders. Amy and Tails scramble to save Johnny from an acid vat while the fight wrecks the machinery. Shortfuse’s priorities cause a furious argument, and he quits the team to pursue Robotnik alone.
