[edit] The Ultimate Lifeform!

The comic begins where Rouge the Bat and Shadow the Hedgehog are about to enter the Special Zone to retrieve a Chaos Emerald. Once they arrive they run into Feist, a panda god-like being. In order to retrieve the emerald Feist puts Shadow and Rouge through a test. Shadow tries to simply use chaos control but is unable to tap into the chaos energy. Feist tells him that he only has thirty more seconds to retrieve the emerald. They fail the task and are transported back to G.U.N. Shadow blames himself for the loss and walks off defeated. Hope Kintobor later finds him and tells him that he did not fail but actually set himself up for future success. Rouge and Shadow return to the special zone with E-123 Omega as "Team Dark". Feist gives them another challenge to complete which they again fail. Omega then fires at Feist allowing Shadow and Rouge to retrieve the emerald.

An additional page of a preview of the next story arc, Mobius: 30 Years Later is included, with Knuckles and Julie Su depart to make peace with the Mazuri Separatists, leaving Lara-Su in charge.

[edit] Trivia

  • In the comic, Feist appears as a large, overweight panda, but in the Off Panel, he was shown quite muscular and tough. However, this might not be canon because it was part of Off Panel.
  • The 'trials' that Shadow, Rouge, and Omega face are actually special stages from Sonic 3D Blast and the original Sonic the Hedgehog, with the Chaos Emerald as the goal.
