Previous issue | Next issue

Sonic Super Special Magazine #4 is the fourth issue of Sonic Super Special Magazine published by Archie Comics. This issue focused on chronicling the majority of the Mobius: 25 Years Later storyline that was published in 2004 and 2006, as advertising for the Sonic Universe Graphic Novel Series Volume 2: 30 Years Later. This issue contains the highest amount of stories that would be featured in a single issue of the magazine, at fourteen total. Despite Silver the Hedgehog being on the cover, he is not present within any of the reprinted material.

While advertised as collecting the entire Mobius: 25 Years Later storyline, two installments are missing, likely due to page count limitations: "Prologue" from Sonic the Hedgehog #131 and "Father's Day" from Sonic the Hedgehog #143.
