The Doctor pulls out a bunch of techno babble. not comforting enough than the new guy who violates her boundaries.
Back in current time, the Skunk shows up and Sally runs to him because her caring childhood friend who is actually being quite nice is.
Which basically means they need to retcon all the now, but whatever. a flashback by Spaz! This is actually interesting as we get to see how the characters got to where they are. Everyone is snarky because that's the new status quo in the comic. The king is still turning into crystal because reasons. House on air yet, because he seems quite similar. In issue 43, new character ahoy! It's Dr. When did this shift from an post-apocalyptic scifi to epic fantasy?!?! Issue 42 doesn't make any sense, not a lot happens, and it's a giant drug trip. So Athair finds them and must drug them because all these scenes are super tripped. He hops on a stick out seat on Tails' sub and they go to Downunda to find the Ancient Walkers. So now Knuckles has sworn himself to a quest to help Princess Sally because reasons. I am starting to see why people get annoyed at Penders. Well, using the emerald on the king was bad news, so Sonic says he needs to call on a ring for knowledge. I thought this world was littered with rings and emeralds? How are they in such short supply now? Well, at least we got an explanation for why Knuckles is back. Where the hell did Knuckles come from?!?! Well, he's being nice or something.
Pretty sure we don't get much of that until at least past issue issue 150 though. the series hasn't dealt much with Mobians who side with Robotnik, and that's a really interesting plot. Something something chaos emeralds and power rings might save him. Sonic and Knuckles are fighting again because that's what they do. It comes after Sonic Quest so I don't really have any idea what's going on as I haven't gotten a copy of Sonic Quest yet. Issue 42 does pick up the King plot again. The zone did things to the King, and it is collapsing, except for not, and where did his memory go? I'd be okay with these mysteries if I knew that they would eventually make sense in less than dozens of issues. We get a lot of trippy time is weird and in flux things going on, but the underlying premise MAKES NO SENSE. Sonic, Sally, and the goddamn Skunk head back into the Zone of Silence to get the king. 20 pages to have things make sense? This set up is not condusive to all the mysteries that Penders and Co are setting up. The early issues of Sonic suffer greatly from one shot-itis. Okay, adult Maggie is starting to see how even the issues I enjoyed way back when are.
