COMIC NOTES

Comic #085 was the last of the Sonic Wrecks comics created before they were renumbered when Version 6.0 of the SW site launches in February 2009.
The “Large Hogdon Collider” is a parody of the Large Hadron Collider.
Starburst were indeed called Opal Fruits for anyone outside the UK or too young to remember. Their popularity dipped greatly after the name change as people refused to identify with them anymore.
AAUK liked lime flavoured chews.
And strawberry.
And apple… but you never seem to get those except with Fruittella. Sigh. Sorry, where were we?
As usual the collider is made up of all sorts of Sonic 3 and Advance 2 bits.
The payoff obviously references the supposed “Black Hole Of Calcutta”
The quoted description of the author in the disclaimer references the then engagement of Echo Hawk and AAUK.
