Sonic the Comic #218

Reprinted stories

1. Sonic the Hedgehog · Vote for Me #

   With Robotnik gone, Mobius holds elections for a new world leader. Sonic finds candidates Derek Wombat and Giles Baboon trading absurd promises on It's Your Shout, then later wrecking city streets in battle armour. He disables both suits and leaves them tied so they must co-operate to get free. On polling day neither wins a single vote, and Sonic urges each Zone to choose its own leader rather than crown one ruler for the planet.

   First appeared in issue 101.

2. Knuckles · Loose Ends #

   On the Floating Island, Knuckles finds Doctor Zachary has tunnelled deeper into the rock instead of staying trapped. The Emerald Hill Folk, led by Sidney, demand a return home; a clash with reactivated Guardian Robots ends once Knuckles explains the machines no longer serve Zachary. He agrees to lower the Island so they can leave, then shows Porker Lewis the chest of ancient plans that will let them repair the Emerald Chamber.

   First appeared in issue 101.

3. Amy Rose · Amy's Secret Past #

   A flashback shows Amy sabotaging Robotnik's attempt to repeat the experiment that gave Sonic his powers. An explosion changes Amy's colour to pink.

   First appeared in issue 127.

4. Sonic's World · Invasion of the Veg Heads, Part 1 #

   In the Plowright Zone, Farmer Nige's prize vegetables grow enormous near the shuttered Chemical Plant Zone. Agent Harry Mole of O.O.E.R. investigates vanishing crops and finds the produce has come alive. Sonic knocks the mutants aside, only for roots to seize him, Nige and Harry. Crowned potato King Edward declares them prisoners of the Veg-Heads.

   First appeared in issue 101.
