Super Sonic, first seen in Sonic 2, is achieved when Sonic collects all seven of the Chaos Emeralds and fifty rings. During this state, Sonic turns gold, glows, is invincible and even faster (with the caveat that one ring is automatically lost every second). However, if he runs out of rings he'll revert back to his normal self.
Super Sonic is vulnerable to death via the same methods as his normal form is regardless of whether he has rings, including falling down a pit, being crushed, or drowning.
In the UK Sonic the Comic, he is evil. Under extreme stress or exposure to Chaos Energy he transforms into a demon-like version of Super Sonic. His abilities from the game are the same (faster, invincible) except he can fly and can fire laser blasts from his eyes. He is completely uncontrollable and destroys anything in his way, or just destroys anything for the fun of it. When Sonic reverts back to himself he has no recollection of any events he performed.
The 'Running Wild' multi-part story was a major turning point as Sonic was accidentally exposed to the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald at full power at the same time, he emerged more psychotic than ever and tried to kill Amy Rose, Tails and Johnny Lightfoot. They tricked Super and with the help of a starpost, managed to separate Sonic from Super Sonic, Super was warped to the Special Zone.
In the last few issues of the comic (the 'Chaos Saga', an adaption of the game Sonic Adventure), Super Sonic was merged back into Sonic by a comic-exclusive character called Ebony.
Super Sonic is a fan favourite amongst the Sonic the Comic community, as he represents a more darker edged version compared to Sonic Team's version of him. In a demonstration of the "eye of the beholder" principle, his fans and his detractors often cite exactly the same reasons for their opposite opinions.
