Knuckles the Echidna (Sonic Underground)

NO MASTER EMERALDS? 🥺

Today is the 28th anniversary of the day Sonic & Knuckles was released for the SEGA MegaDrive in 1994.

But this was no ordinary Sonic game, OH NO. By itself, it’s basically Sonic and Knuckles travelling through all of the zones from Sonic 3 SEGA couldn’t finish before February, with 7 new Blue Sphere stages thrown in for good measure. But when you open the slot on top of the cartridge, and put Sonic 2 or 3 on top, that’s when the magic happens:

To celebrate, let’s put Knuckles into other stuff too! Name a book or TV show or film or something or other, and our one true Lord Knuckles will sprinkle his Knuckles-rich blessings on their front covers, posters, etc. In other words, I’m basically gonna edit Knuckles onto them. With all that said, Happy International & Knuckles Day!
