Archie Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 3 was the third issue of the main Sonic the Hedgehog comic series. This is the third issue of the on-going Sonic the Hedgehog comic book series by Archie. The comics at this time were more similar to the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog than the SatAM show in terms of story plots, being that the comics had isolated stories.

[edit] "The Bomb Bugs Me!"
Sonic over hears Dr. Robotnik bragging about having "the bomb", which will "kill every last one of them", and Sonic rushes to Knothole to tell the rest of the Freedom Fighters. They made a plan by projecting a movie of them protesting on a wall, fooling the doctor and his Swatbots. Boomer then comes in dressed up as Robotnik to get the bomb, but then the story goes wack-o! Robotnik comes in, claiming he is the real Boomer, followed by tons of costumes flying through the air. They get the real Rotor, and take "the bomb" back to Knothole, where they discover it is a bug bomb! Dr. Robotnik's pantry remains full of bugs, now.
[edit] "Tails' Fairy Tales"
Tails finds a sleeping Sonic the Hedgehog and tells him about how he read the story of "The Tortoise and the Hare." You then find out that Sonic was also in a race with a tortoise, who was using a rocket-powered skateboard!
[edit] "Double Speak"
Here we find Sonic the Hedgehog talking on the phone...to himself!
[edit] "Paper Trail"
Princess Sally gets really mad for Sonic, Tails, and Boomer printing a story in The Knothole Inquisitor about the princess' hair color change.
[edit] "Rabbot Deployment"
Boomer's "little mermaid" camera gets pictures of Robotnik making deep inroads into the southern sector of Mobius! Sonic, accompanied by Boomer, go up and out of Knothole to scope it out. After they went to buy Boomer some roller blades, they find a rabbit getting taken into a robot-maker! Sonic tries to go save the day, but is pulled back by Boomer, who is still attached to Sonic! Sonic then gets up and goes in for the save, but the rabbit still gets robotized...half-way! They take "Bunnie Rabbot" back to Knothole, where she proves herself worthy of being a Freedom Fighter, and offers to be the Sally's hairdresser. When news of a giant Burrowbot get to the Freedom Fighters, Sonic and Bunnie go up to defeat it by knocking it upside-down, then creating a trench around it. The day has been saved, and a new friend joins the fray!
[edit] "Robotnik's Rules"
Robotnik show's the readers his rules of evil:
- NO Laughing
- NO Exercise
- NO Singing
- NO Friends
- NO Plants
- NO Pets
- NO Music
- NO Fun
- NO Books
- NO Healthy Food
- NO complaining about my rules!
[edit] Trivia
- Rotor was still being referred to as "Boomer" at the time of this issue's publishing.
- This issue, along with issues 1, 2, and 4, was reprinted in Sonic Archives Volume 1.
- In the one page story "Paper Trail", Sally's brown/yellow and pink/black coloration difference between is pointed out.
- Robotnik, of all people, had to point out Rotor's obesety, an unintentional comparison to the skinnier Rotor from OSM: #0.
