Super Sonic (Sonic the Comic)

Super Sonic is a powered-up form of Sonic the Hedgehog, who appeared in Sonic the Comic, the UK publication by Fleetway Editions. Unlike in other continuities, the Fleetway Super Sonic was portrayed as an evil rampaging monster, who cared only for mayhem and destruction. Sonic frequently had to battle to keep this alter-ego in check, because when he became Super Sonic he endangered innocent civilians and his own friends.

Super Sonic was created when Sonic absorbed a dose of evil energy that had been absorbed by the Chaos Emeralds.

History
Some time prior to the events of the series, Tails witnessed Sonic transform into Super Sonic when he absorbed too much Ring Energy from the Golden Rings of Mobius. Later, while helping to clean up the Oil Ocean Zone, Sonic transformed into Super Sonic without the aid of any rings, because his life was in danger. In this form, Super Sonic attacked a small rabbit he had just freed from an Aquis badnik, as well as Tails and their friend Red, until Tails was able to remind Sonic who he was and calm him down enough that he reverted to his usual cool blue persona. It was revealed that Sonic had absorbed so much Ring Energy over the years, that he will now transform whenever he is under great pressure.

During the series, Super Sonic was made into a separate entity from Sonic after Super Sonic almost killed Sonic's friends (but Sonic will prevented him from doing so). They were split into two separate beings, and Super Sonic was imprisoned: first in a time-stasis field within the Omni-Viewer, and then in the Black Asteroid in the Special Zone.

Nevertheless, Super Sonic was able to escape by charging himself up and then creating a massive explosion within the Asteroid. This explosion produced an electro-magnetic pulse that spread all over planet Mobius, deactivating the badniks and contributing to the downfall of Doctor Robotnik's dictatorial rule over the planet. However, this explosion also made Super Sonic lose his memory and his powers, making his peaceful.

The amnesiac Super Sonic befriended the mystic cat Ebony and her companion Pyjamas. They attempted to help Super Sonic recover his memory before finding the truth behind his identity. Super Sonic regained his memories, and the knowledge of how to harness his powers, but each time he unleashed his powers he turned evil, resulting in several very close calls.

During the comic's adaptation of Sonic Adventure, Super Sonic returned and was revealed to be dying from a lack of Chaos Energy. He defeated the unstoppable Chaos creature by absorbing all the Emerald Energy out of it, but this caused him to turn evil and super-powered again. Sonic and Ebony worked together to trick Super Sonic into getting close enough to merge him and Sonic back into one being.
