Background InformationEdit
- Caterkiller's new design was first featured in the sketchbook featured in STH: 115 under a spoiler tag.
- Caterkiller's demise is somewhat similar to the final worm monster's in the movie Tremors.
- This is the first appearance of Jack Rabbit since STH: 63.
- On Rotor's hard-drive, there is a magazine with Archie character Jughead on it and a piece of paper with "SPAZ is the Sonic god!", refering to the artist SPAZ of the Sonic comics. A similar bit of paper is shown later with "Spaz Rocks!" instead.
- On one of Rotor's techno equipment, it reads "Cybertron 1984", a reference to Transformers and the year it was created.
- Also included on Rotor's desk are random letters promoting Archie comics.
- This issue's third story marks the fourth and final appearance of the alternate future Mobius, first seen in the Sonic In Your Face special. It had also been previously seen in Sonic the Hedgehog #22 and Sonic the Hedgehog #75. The latter issue established that Robo-Robotnik nuked Mobotropolis and killed the Royal Family, and its appearance in this issue is simply a re-telling of the creation of NICOLE, first depicted in Sonic In Your Face.
