Summary

Story One

"Triple Trouble" - Part One

Dr. Robotnik is playing darts, with a picture of Sonic the Hedgehog in the middle of the dartboard. Crabmeat confronts Robotnik and tells him that HE could take Sonic out. Robotnik refuses to let Crabmeat fight Sonic, but he allows him to be the target of his new robotic monkey, Coconuts. Coconuts goes out to fight Sonic under Robotnik's command. Speaking of Sonic, he is out by the Great Forest, having a run with his friend Tails. They are suddenly ambushed by an explosive coconut thrown by the metallic monkey. Coconuts teases Tails, causing Tails to try to attack him, but he is held back by Sonic. They manage to outsmart Coconuts by shaking him down a tree, and playing with one of his explosive coconuts. Coconuts is trying to get his coconut back, while Sonic and Tails play "monkey in the middle" with him. Finally, Sonic drops the coconut on the monkey and blows him up. Later that day, a SWATbot returns a damaged Coconuts to Robotnik. But Robotnik hasn't given up yet...

"Triple Trouble" - Part Two

Robotnik sends out two new robots: Scratch, a chicken robot and leader of the Super Special Sonic Search and Smash Squad along with his "twin", Grounder, a robot similar to Burrobot. Scratch and Grounder go out to the Great Forest to find Sonic, but have trouble along the way. Sonic sends Tails back to Knothole and then ambushes the two robots. Scratch and Grounder both fall off a cliff, but don't give up. Grounder shoots a cable around Sonic's neck, and hauls him to the ground. Scratch claims that Robotnik will honor him for capturing Sonic. Grounder starts to argue with Scratch over who will be honored by Robotnik, and they soon get into a fight. Sonic takes the cable off of his neck while the robots fight, then attacks them. Sonic creates a fissure where Scratch and Grounder are standing, and they fall in. Sonic calls Robotnik on Grounder's phone to tell him his new robots have failed. Sonic runs off, and Robotnik screams out, "I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG!"

Story Two

"Vertigo A Go-Go"

Sonic is out collecting Magic Rings to help defeat Robotnik. Sonic suddenly notices several rings, but once he collects them, he is shot up into the Special Zone, where he meets Verti-Cal and Horizont-Al. Sonic is sent through a topsy turvy world, and thinks Verti-Cal and Horizont-al are his enemies, hired by Robotnik. They claim that they don't know him, and send him through more insanity. Sonic suggests that Verti-Cal and Horizont-al should join the Knothole Freedom Fighters but they don't seem to listen. Sonic is shot out of the Special Zone, back into the Great Forest. Antoine confronts Sonic and asks him "What's UP". Sonic furiously chases after Antoine, while Verti-Cal and Horizont-al watch.

Story Three

"All the Mail's about Tails!"

Several children around the world write to Sonic, thinking about what Tails could be. For example, one child thought Tails was a mutant, another child thought Tails was a freak, and yet another thought Tails was created in a lab, or maybe that one of his ancestors helped Charles Dickens. However, all of these opinions are untrue.
