Trivia[]

  • This is the first issue of the Sonic Super Special Magazine series to feature a new story, as well as the first to feature a cover consisting of new artwork.
  • Regardless of the continuity of the first story, the "What's What" feature explains that the Little Planet does indeed exist in the Prime Zone universe.
  • On the last page of "Go Ahead, Mecha My Day", the giant finger, which is meant to represent the readers finger giving the order for the crusher to come down on Robotnik, is altered to resemble a gloved finger, rather than a bare human finger. The reason for this change is unknown.
  • In the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog section on page 7, it states "Long John Baldry, from the show, was Dr. Ivo Robotnik! He was a TV star!". This is a reference to Dr. Robotnik's quotes "Oh, it's from the show, it's from the show!" and "I'm going to be a TV star!" both of which originated from the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog episode "Lifestyles of the Sick and Twisted", and became infamous for their edited usage in the Youtube Poop "It's From The Show".
