Control Zone

Hey Boomers!

Is it that time again already? The offices have been so busy since last issue, it's come round in no time. It's just been a blur of fireworks, snow, and pancakes! Now it's starting to look a bit brighter, how about we get the ball rolling on Spring with a new issue of Sonic the Comic?

There's a nice, complete Sonic story first up! Sonic's quiet time is interrupted once more, and this time, Robotnik's machine is a little trickier than usual. Sonic may find he needs more than a little help to take down Libra!

Knuckles encountered a strange robot last issue, seemingly kept secured in a maze of deadly obstacles that even he had trouble navigating. Will he find out exactly what the 'Gizoid' is this time? Find out in the second part of Skeletons in the Closet.

Be sure to check out the new look Data Zone located at the top of each story! Just click on it to expand all the info you need to get you up to speed on what's been going on!

Blockbuster movie Wreck-It Ralph is the focus of our Review Zone this issue! If you haven't been to see it yet, why not? Sonic hasn't shut up about his cameos for weeks!

You'll find the usual Wallpapers in the usual place and feel free to refresh the page in the Cover section a few times!

BREAKING NEWS!
The latest updates from across Mobius.

GEE GEE CHILLI DOG SCANDAL DEEPENS

The recent Pananana expose on Uncle Gee Gee's chilli dog emporium has left the fast food outlet on the verge of bankrupcy almost overnight, owing to revelations about what goes into their menu being brought to light on the programme last week.

A spokesman for the company was quoted as saying that he "couldn't see what all the fuss was about" and there was "nothing wrong" with neglecting to tell customers that their food in fact contained "100% meat free products." But campaigners are demanding to know what they've been eating all this time, and "does anyone know when the chip shop opens?"

When asked if he'd like to comment himself on the issues, CEO Uncle Gee Gee would only reply in a rasping tone as he was in fact a little hoarse...

WHO IS DEFENDING THE INTERNET?

"Either Robotnik is holding back, which doesn't fit his MO," said UnIC's Learners the Bee, "or there's an unknown person or persons defending the net.
