At the end of issue 3 (the fourth issue of the series), it was announced that Sonic would return in a regular series, and the next issue was published as "issue 1" of the regular series. In addition to the main ''Sonic'' series, Archie Comics published various special issues. Longer than typical issues of the comic, these specials feature stories involving Sonic and other related characters. Several miniseries have also been published, featuring characters such as Sally, Tails, and Knuckles. Because of the popularity of the specials and Miniseries featuring Knuckles, in 1997 ''[[Knuckles the Echidna (comic series)|Knuckles the Echidna]]'' became an ongoing series. Knuckles' stories featured its own cast of Characters, including the [[Chaotix (Pre-Super Genesis Wave)|Chaotix]] and Knuckles' romantic interest, [[Julie-Su]]. Like the Sonic comic, Knuckles' comic was filled with background information about Knuckles' family history. Knuckles' family has split into two factions: the [[Brotherhood of Guardians]] and the [[Dark Legion]]. Knuckles is a member of the former, and Julie-Su used to be a member of the latter. Much of the conflict of the comic surrounded the relations between these two warring factions. In 1999, the series was canceled, but the stories were continued in the pages of ''Sonic the Hedgehog''. After ''Knuckles''<nowiki>'</nowiki> cancellation and until issue 125, a typical issue of ''Sonic'' included a ''Sonic'' story and a ''Knuckles'' story, sometimes even including a third story. This led to each story getting considerably less space than it previously had. Recently, Knuckles' appearances have been infrequent but his story continues within Sonic's stories. The creators also have a comic strip similar to those found in a newspaper at the end of some issues called "[[Off Panel]]." This was in every issue for a long time and continued infrequently in the comic series. The strips parody the lives of the editor and the writers as they walk around the office and interact with characters from the comic in various ways.
