DemonTomatoDave on YouTube) and Chris McFeely (creator of Transformers: The Basics on YouTube), as they review each issue from cover to cover, adverts and all, and explain what it was really like to grow up with Sonic The Comic as a piece of culture.

Episodes

Sonic Holiday Special '96 - I Lean Towards The Egg 15.07.2022

Is there any better feeling than the first day of the summer hols? And what happens when childhood summers end? We get very silly and giggly in this, the FINAL, and undoubtedly the BEST STC special.

#82 - How To Crack Nanna Up 07.07.2022

WHAT was the Chewits monster called? HAS Super Sonic killed his friends? WILL Robotnik defeat Brutus? WHAT's going on with Sonic's crotch in this one? Plus: Tails' sexy pants! More flippin golf! STCTP: even chewier than Barrow-in-Furness bus depot!

#81 - The Omni-Pooer (with Stuart Gipp @Stupacabra) 23.06.2022

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! That's what you'll say if you a) listen to this episode with our Retronauts guest Stuart Gipp, or b) kill all your animal friends in an uncontrolled "fury", like Sonic does this issue. Also: no golf games are not good, STUART.

#80 - Nobody's Ever Been Hurt by a Hexagon - with Jon Lock (@jonlockcomics) 10.06.2022

It's the One. THE Super Sonic story starts here. It's a longer episode, but we had to really get into this. You know it, it's famous, and this is it. Also: what's going on with Gex, Chris rolls a six, and power water gun cow suit.

Knuckles Knockout Special 03.06.2022

The world's gone Knuckles-mad, but it happened before! Here's a magazine, separate from STC, and ALL about Knuckles. A bit of extra STCTP for you between episodes for you dime-bars this summer.

#79 - Dangling Kindof Grundlewards - with Guy & Cat Kelly (@wangleberry & @brainmage) 25.05.2022

It's the podcast's THIRD BIRTHDAY! So we got Guy & Cat round, we got cakes out, and we had one of the silliest, giggliest episodes yet. We visit Segaworld, do crimes at the Garden Centre, share Sports Day memories and prove Sonic is without Original Sin

#78 - Arr-Arr-Doo 13.05.2022

The sega Superstars finally flutter out this issue, as STC becomes a Sonic-only Zone. Plus! We have a minor breakdown about the Playstation, Dave is accused of being "twee and absurd" if you can imagine that, and it's still Robyn with a Y.

#77 - Johnny Is A Snack - with Euan O'Leary (@EuanParticular) 12.05.2022

Join us to find out what button clamps are for and whether they really changed Opal Fruits. Join Sonic for some antifash statue-yanking and some "comedic or cartoonish bonk-the-subordinate". Also, learn what Sonic cartoon fans are called.

#76 - Sonic The British-Themed Stripper - With Selena Thomas (@reaperfox) 15.04.2022

You already know OF it: the episode where Porker leaves. But what's the context of that scene and how does it pay off? Dave's old pal from the STC days joins us to discuss this BRILLIANT issue.

STCTP The Movie TWO! 07.04.2022

We saw the film, we talked about the film. Yes! It's somehow been TWO YEARS since we last did this! Jehan's back, of course. Full spoilers discussed.

#75 - How To Reach That Very Tricky D-Zone 01.04.2022

What would happen if you won a big Pritt Stick? Did you use to go swimming? Are Badniks people? Do you believe the reason they're called Tazos? We answer all these questions in this giggly episode, so stick that in your glue-hole-yoo-hoo!

#74 - The Catsplat Challenge 17.03.2022

"This is the best thing that's ever happened on this show." What made Chris say that? Get your mum to download this episode for you and find out! Also: a 90s detective diversion, a means of Space Harrying, and a Willy Baronet.

#73 - Dexter Fletcher's Audible Smurf Train 04.03.2022

The Sonic strip that "shouldn't have gone to print,"* the 1st part of UK comics' only adaptation of a JRPG,** a Mars a day, and a trip on Pippa's train to Once Upon a Time

#72 - Cheesy-Ronk-Stinky-Feet-Dog-Poo-Stickers 17.02.2022

The epic rerun of Sonic's origin concludes, Chris sees a new episode of Turtles, and we get the inside scoop from a Speedlines fib we all fell for. It's STC's smelly issue! Issued to you, our smelly listeners. I MEAN OUR LISTENERS!! Oh, what a giveaway

#71 - Sonic Kissing Sonic 03.02.2022

What are the top ten kissy smooches on the Sonic Web? Listen to this episode and you'll find out, Saucy! The Rs are very rhotic on this, our Valentine's ep. Also: we each lose our Sonic fanfics in the Diary Zone, and OH YEAH THE ORIGIN OF SONIC AGAIN!

#70 - We Recognise That Egg 21.01.2022

Sonic and Chaotix travel back in time to find out where it all went right in the build-up to the reveal of Sonic's origin story! Er... again. Also, back in 1996, Babydave gives a firsthand account of playing through S3&K for the first time.

#69 - Nicechap 07.01.2022

On a Metallixised Mobius, Sonic meets Dave's favourite cliffhanger. In a dinosaur graveyard Knuckles gets a faceful of funkydust. On a 1996ised Earth, a hypnotic headmaster leads us down a very merry path. It's ALL about Ape in our 1st episode of 1996!

#68 - The Big Chrimbo Bash! 23.12.2021

Come back to 1995 with us via the special STCTP teleport pad, as '95-Dave brings us an on-the-spot report from the big day. Plus! Metal Porker! The NEW Master Emerald! It's a general knees-up so bring A Big Egg nog etc etc etc, I'm going to bed!

#67 - Nude But For The Duckworths - With Abby Denton (@mizabitha) 10.12.2021

Where should Espio have the horn? Why all the Garfields? How on earth do you crowbar the anniversary of your nan's favourite soap into a kids' comic? Find out, on the Eldorado of podcasts!

#66 - Deliciously Lickable 26.11.2021

What sort of vibe do you get from Tracy? Was Coronation St a stealth game? What do Strong And Cool people do? Why don't you stop asking stupid questions and just listen to the podcast??

#65 - Even Turns the Milk Chocolatey 12.11.2021

Shredheads and Shredless Wonders alike will enjoy our cereal offences this fortnight. Chris works his way through a pack of Pastilles (here they are right now) that seem to be reading along, Ecco ends, and a new Knuckles strip brings us NIGEL DOBBYN!

#64 - Pigs Are Squidgy 29.10.2021

It's Halloween again, boo-mers! Our third! So we probably say all the same things about Halloween as ever. Never mind that! It's Brutus! It's Shorty & Tekno! Ecco! Knuckles & Tails! It's a banger of an issue

Brutus! Tekno! Farthing Wood! Reboot! Sugar Puffs! Holograms! School friends & enemies! The worst film a child can watch! Sam from Freak Zone Games is here, newly-minted copy of Spectacular Sparky in hand, to discuss Shadow's shaft and Beano sacrifice.

#62 - School Rubbers 03.10.2021

This episode: Breaking school stationary and "forgetting" PE kits. Also, the genuinely harrowing conclusion to the Brotherhood of Metallix story, Ecco goes to SPACE, and various things are wrong with Marsupilami. Plus: the music of Sonic Chronicles

#61 - A Beeline To Carl 16.09.2021

"UKCAC podcast!" you've been shouting -- at least, we think that's what you've been shouting. So here it is, the issue where Boomers were invited to meet the Humes-who-think-they're-in-charge. We had a roving reporter on the scene. Also: Metallixes! etc!
