Other features

Off Panel Proudly Presents: Secret -Origins- & Knuckles

Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles sit in front of a television, trying to get a video game to work. All they can see is static. Tails pulls the cartridge out, trying to clean the connector with a cloth, but Knuckles has his doubts. Taking the cart, he blows into it, releasing the Game Shark Genie. The genie proclaims they can grant three wishes, but their power diminishes with each wish. Sonic immediately wishes to have a at least one ring on him at all times, which is granted. Tails then wishes to keep up with Sonic, a rope connecting the duo much to Sonic's chagrin. Knuckles, with stars in his eyes, wishes for his own game, but the best Game Shark Genie can do is attach "& Knuckles" to Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
