Sonic the Hedgehog 29 is the twenty-ninth issue of the Sonic the Hedgehog comic.

This comic features only two stories: Steel-Belted Sally and Growing Pains, Part 2.

Steel-Belted Sally

The story begins with a short review about how dragons used to roam Mobius, until Robotnik roboticized all of them, minus Dulcy. It then cuts to a scene of a Swat-bot hovercraft in hot pursuit of Sonic and Dulcy. Dulcy ducks, causing the ship to crash into a cliff. As Sonic begins to search the ship, he finds an odd machine. Meanwhile, Robotnik complains about the absence of the craft, Snively says it has crashed, leading to Robotnik getting upset- that craft was carrying a de-roboticizer. He says to self-destruct the craft, but is too late as Sonic speeds off with it in-tact.

Growing Pains, Part 2

After a recap of what happened in the previous issue, we come to Tails in the process of being roboticized. But Robotnik is suddenly surprised as the shrieks from Tails and the engine stop, and bends down to look at what could be wrong. The roboticizer blows up in his face, and Tails jumps out revealing that he clogged the machine filters with the fur from his tails, causing it to explode.

Just as Tails is about to beat up Robotnik though, Fiona slugs Tails straight in the face. Robotnik exclaims that the automation is programmed to defend him to the death. As Fiona trys smacking Tails with her club, Tails jumps out of the way- only to be caught by one of Robotniks robotic palmtrees. When he thinks he has him, Tails uproots the plant, then bashes Robotnik with it, sending him rolling down the sand. As Tails proclaims the evil Robotnik has done, Fiona pounces on him and sends them tumbling in a cloud of smoke down into the sea.

Fiona begins dunking Tails under the water, while he tries to convince her she still loves him. By the third attempt though, she rusts solid. Tails mourns over Fiona, crying about Robotnik creating a perfect woman, but forgetting to waterproof her. As he says he'll make him repair her, Robotnik laughs at him, flying away in his Egg-O-Matic.

Tails begins to pick up all of the litter left on the ground by Robotnik, but discovers a list of supplies being sent to a sattelite operation. As he is about to contact Sally, he realizes doing the mission could show he is as capable as the rest of them. As he rides off, the rusted Fiona cries as her love dives off in his submarine, with the author proclaiming Tails beginning his own 3-issue mini-series.
