Synopsis[]

One sunny morning in Green Hill Zone, Dr. Eggman turned up and began snatching several small animals from their natural environment, and cramming them all in a cage. As the Doctor takes off in his Egg Mobile with the cage, Sonic the Hedgehog arrived on the scene, commenting that the Doctor really needed to find a new hobby other than capturing his animal friends yet again. Noticing no sign of Tails or the Tornado in sight, Eggman takes advantage of the situation by escaping skyward. However, Sonic simply chased after by using the floating platforms of the zone. Leaving the cage of helpless animals on a higher up ledge, Eggman took it upon himself to knock Sonic out of the sky: putting up a shield around his Egg Mobile, Eggman attempted to ram Sonic head on, as the blue hedgehog easily dodged every blow. Sonic was bound to run out of platforms eventually as Eggman smashed them all up in his rampage, but not before his shield finally broke down from the multiple impacts, allowing Sonic strike, spin-dashing a hole clean through the craft. Heavily damaged, Eggman took the cage once again and flew off into the distance. Sonic, with no more platforms to use, proclaimed to his terrified animal friends that he would catch up to them eventually. Later on, Sonic arrived in Mountain Zone: after taking a moment to examine the dangers that await above him, Sonic jumped into action with the words "Alright Eggman, let's try this again!"

Trivia[]

  • This is the first issue in the Sonic Super Digest series to feature a original story.
  • Due to Ken Penders' lawsuit against Sega and Archie Comics which resulted in the removal of all of Penders' characters from the continuity, the reprint of the story "Endangered Species: the Finale" features two edits to the dialog in the story:
    1. The heading on the first page was changed to "Ruins. Late Evening", where the original said "Former Echidna Home-land".
    2. Sonic's dialogue while comforting Amy was changed from saying that they may be able to use Krudzu-tech on a Warp Ring to bring back the echidnas, to simply say they could use it to bring back everybody without mentioning the echidnas.
  • The cover artwork is the same from Sonic Comics APP.
