Archie Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 195 was the one hundred and ninety-fifth issue of the main Sonic the Hedgehog comic series.

Story One

 * "Hedgehog Havoc" - Part One

In the Hedgehog residence, Jules and Bernie Hedgehog ask Sir Charles and NICOLE of their son's whereabouts. The latter tells them about the invasion from Moebius, while the former explained their conterinvasion plan. NICOLE then states the Supression Squad turned on Scourge and forced him back into Moebius, with Jules concluding Sonic went after him. NICOLE then states that knowing Sonic, he's got things under control.

In Moebius' Castle Acorn, Rosy the Rascal attacks Scourge, Sonic, and Amy. While she is distracted with Scourge, Amy goes to Buns Rabbot in her wrecked Omega Care Unit and asks if she's okay and if she needs help. Buns then replies she has enough power in the unit to get her back to Kintobor's tower for repairs. She then tells Amy to "give that brat a whuppin' for me" before flying off.

In the Eggdome, Eggman is putting the finishing touches on his latest Metal Sonic robot, now equipped with an engine capable of teleportation. After it is activated, it scans the area looking for its target. When it doesn't, it teleports away (much to Eggman's anger). Snively then tells his uncle he'll be at his workstation.

At Mercia's Never Lake, Silver is getting directions of Sonic's possible whereabouts from Rob O' the Hedge and Mari-An. Silver then pulls out a Super Warp ring and activates it. He and Rob then go through, leaving Mari-An to watch over Mercia.

In Freedom HQ, Sally and Alicia Acorn are arguing over the results of their plan when Silver and Rob show up in the Warp Ring. Rob then greets Sally and asks for Sonic. Sally explains that Sonic is in Moebius and why, and Silver activates his Warp Ring again, and he and Rob go through. After they leave, Sally orders Tails to get the Star Posts back up.

In Moebius' Castle Acorn, Sonic and Scourge are battling each other in the hallway. As they charge at each other, Shadow appears in the middle of them via Chaos Control, and asks if he is in the Special Zone. Sonic tells him where they are, and asks for his help in taking down Scourge. Metal Sonic then appears in the room, and as the four hedgehogs square off, Rob and Silver appear in the room, followed by Amy, who is being chased by Rosy. After some words between all the hedgehogs, they begin an all-out battle. Silver then starts asking them where Sonic is. After a few times, he immediately gets fed up and stops them all using his telekinesis. He then states his true intention for finding Sonic and attacks him immediately after singling him out by using Metal Sonic as a color reference. Rob then points his bow-and-arrow at Silver, demanding an explanation, to which Silver explains the betrayal of a Freedom Fighter and the destruction of the team after in the future, and that Sonic was the only one having the power to do so. Rob then contradicts, telling him of his heroic acts. Scourge then intervenes, knocking both of them down before being interrupted by Rosy. Sonic then stops the fight, telling the others to stop fighting each other and finish off Scourge. Realizing what was going on, Scourge retreats to the throne room, while being followed by Sonic, who demands that Scourge give up. Scourge refuses, stating that his throne is stocked with Anarchy Beryl while sitting on it. Sonic then looks on in horror (having deduced what Anarchy Beryl was) as Scourge transforms into his Super form.
