Synopsis
Sonic the Hedgehog is visiting Porker Lewis on the Floating Island. They go looking for Knuckles in the Emerald Chamber, but the echidna can't be found. The Emerald Chamber is a mess, and Porker tries to explain that the damage was caused when Knuckles fought a Robot head, but Sonic isn't interested.
In any case, Sonic wasn't really looking for Knuckles. He says it was really Porker that he came to visit. He's not going to ask Porker to rejoin the Freedom Fighters, he just wants to know how Porker is doing. Porker tells him that life is much better since he moved to the Floating Island, although he misses everyone, especially Amy. Sonic asks Porker not to mention her, because lately she's been "driving [him] up the wall!"
As Sonic sits on the edge of the pit over which the Chaos Emeralds are suspended, a booming voice demands that the intruders identify themselves. Sonic is surprised, more so when the rock crumbles beneath him and he falls into the Emerald pit! The voice is from the Robot head, who did not recognise Porker in the poor light, but Porker is frantic with worry. The Robot asks whether Porker is afraid the fall killed his friend, but that's not it. Porker knows that the Emerald Energy in the chamber is bound to "affect" Sonic. He quickly hides behind a pillar, terrified, and tells the Robot to "shut up"! If they're lucky, Sonic won't notice them!
Sure enough, the Sonic that rises out of the pit isn't the cool blue hedgehog that fell down: it's Super Sonic, Sonic's demonic alter-ego! Consumed by hatred, he needs to find something to destroy! And the first name that comes to mind is... Amy Rose! He blasts out of the Emerald Chamber at vast speeds, straight through the solid rock of the roof, leaving a terrified Porker behind.
As Super Sonic zooms through the sky, faster than should be physically possible, he smashes through a ship transporting new SBS Troopers without even slowing down.
On the surface of Mobius, beside the caravan of Bob Beaky's Travelling Circus, Amy is attempting to teach Tails to use a crossbow. He's not very good, and doesn't really know why they need another sharp-shooter when they've got Amy. Amy just says she might not be around forever. Suddenly, Johnny Lightfoot runs out of the caravan - he's just had Porker on the communicator! But before he can explain Porker's message, Super Sonic is on top of them! "Amy Rose, prepare to meet your doom!"
Appearances
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Super Sonic
- Porker Lewis
- Guardian robot head
- Amy Rose
- Miles "Tails" Prower
- Johnny Lightfoot
- Troopers
Continuity
- Knuckles is not on the Floating Island. He left with Captain Plunder in Sonic the Comic #75, "The Ghost Ship, Part 2", and will eventually return in Sonic the Comic #97, "Victims, Part 1".
- As Porker Lewis tries to explain, the Emerald Chamber was destroyed by the head of the Guardian Robot in Sonic the Comic #73, "New Master Emerald". The robot once worked for Doctor Zachary (mentioned here by Porker) until Knuckles decapitated it and Zachary fell over the edge of the Floating Island, in Sonic the Comic #68, "The Homecoming, Part 4". It is revealed here that, since the Zachary's reprogramming was wiped in "New Master Emerald", Knuckles has built an alcove for the Robot in the corner of the Emerald Chamber.
- Porker has been living on the Floating Island since he quit the Freedom Fighters in Sonic the Comic #76, "The Big Decision". Sonic initially had trouble accepting Porker's resignation, even accusing Porker of giving up on the fight for Mobius' freedom, although he has clearly moved on from that, since here he says that Porker has "already done more than [his] fair share".
- Super Sonic attains a new, even more demonic form in this issue, when he is bombarded by energy from the Chaos Emeralds, gaining even rougher spikes and sharp fangs. He will keep this new form for the remainder of the series.
Trivia
- Porker is depicted here wearing his trademark black jacket, despite returning the jacket to Sonic when he quit the Freedom Fighters (issue #76).
- This story was reprinted in Sonic the Comic #202.

Tails agrees to help out defending the Casino Night from Brutus' Troopers, but he is spotted by Fleabyte the bounty hunter, who catches Tails in a net. He believes that Brutus will give him a reward for Tails, but is surprised when Brutus' Troopers arrest him too and throw him in jail with Tails.
Tails and Fleabyte talk in the cell. Fleabyte reveals that he can pick locks with his robotic claw, but doesn't think to use it on the cell door until Tails points out that it would be a good idea. They escape, and together take down the Troopers - as they chase Fleabyte, Tails pours syrup under their feet and sends them crashing into a giant pinball machine.
No sooner are their pursuers defeated than Fleabyte turns on Tails, trying to net him again. However, Tails won't be caught the same way twice, and captures Fleabyte in his own net.
