Trivia[]

  • The area featured in the background on the front cover resembles Rail Canyon from Sonic Heroes.
  • Although the official solicits, in-book previews, and original cover stated that the magazine would include parts of the "Return to Angel Island" storyline and Chaotix and Mammoth Mogul-related stories, the released version of the magazine instead included selections from the Iron Dominion saga. This was most likely due to the issue being released at the height of the Ken Penders legal case, as most Chaotix-related stories were either written by Penders, or included characters of his that were under dispute at the time.
  • Due to the Ken Penders case, the stories featured in this issue were subject to numerous edits to remove lines of dialogue or, in one case, an entire page featuring the disputed characters or concepts. Oddly, despite these changes, the final installment of the Mobius Timeline (which depicted several disputed characters) was left unedited.
    • In "Iron Dominion: Part 2", the entire ninth page, in which Lien-Da appeared, was removed. On page 10, the second half of her line, as continued from the previous page, is also removed.
    • The final page of "Thicker Than Water: Part 2", which featured Alicia Acorn and a mention of Geoffrey St. John, was removed.
    • In "Hindsight", Snively's mention of the Dark Egg Legion is changed to simply "your (Eggman's) army".
      • Oddly, despite this edit, all mentions of the Dark Egg Legion throughout "Thicker Than Water" are left intact.
    • Unrelated to the Penders case, the opening pages of "Iron Dominion: Part 2" and both parts of "Thicker Than Water" had their original "Welcome to the planet Mobius" headings changed to the currently used "Welcome to Sonic's comic book adventures" headings. The reason for this change is unknown, considering this change would never be made again in subsequent issues.
      • Oddly, the "planet Mobius" heading for "Journey to the East: Part 1" is left unchanged.
  • "Journey to the East - Part One: Endless Reach of Fate" features only a selection of the pages from the story.
