 | "...And One Shall Save Him!"
Writer: Ken Penders
Penciler: Kyle Hunter
Inker: Harvey Mercadoocasio
Sonic has just done a raid on Robotropolis only to return home to Geoffrey St. John! But bigger interests are at hand than verbal abuse - Sally's ready to undertake the mission to rescue her father by herself with the help of Rotor's "Neutralizer". And taking Sonic and Geoffrey along for the ride, together they descend into - "The Zone Of Silence". Meanwhile the King, still without memory is seeing strange hallucinations of Sally, Sonic and Geoffrey in an apparition that then disappears, as Sally, Sonic and Geoffrey bear witness to the same fight that they had with King Acorn in Sonic 36! Time has gone wacky in The Zone of Silence as Robotnik's tampering with the zone has caused a temporal rift to form as our heroes witness past events as well as the future unfold before their eyes... sucked into some kind of vortex!
