Trivia

The purpose of this issue could possibly be from a request of a fan in Sonic Super Special Magazine #6, where he asked if they could do a sticker spectacular and the Sonic-Grams-guy replied that "that would be a great idea."
Lara-Su being shown on a group picture is a reference to the Ken Penders Lawsuit settlement having no winner.
This issues reprinting of "Trouble in Paradise: Part 1" was done to promote the release of Sonic Universe Volume 5: The Tails Adventure, released around the same time.
There was a difference of the physical printing of the issue and the version that appears on the smartphone Sonic Comic App. On the app, the sticker sheets in the middle were replaced with simple pin-ups of previous issue covers. The contents page had also been changed to reflect this, removing the instruction on how to remove the pages from the book.
