Sabrina is in a comic store, which surprises a boy because she's a girl. Sabrina explains that she's in the store to buy comics for Salem, but points out that she reads comics, too (and mentions that Knuckles is cute). She picks up Sonic Super Special #7 & casts a spell that goes wrong and causes the boy and herself to end up in Robotropolis. Sabrina comments on the place being "dirty" while the boy wonders if a movie is being filmed as he spots Robotnik with a bunch of Swatbots. Robotnik is ordering Sonic to surrender or Tails will get hurt (you will never see this aspect of the story mentioned again). Knuckles & Sonic notice that some "overlanders" have arrived and decide that Sonic will take Robotnik & Knuckles will tend to the "overlanders." When Knuckles confronts the duo, Sabrina says that they're not with "them" and says that they'll be gone in a bit. Sabrina casts her spell and gets herself & the boy back home, but she accidentally brings Knuckles & Sonic with her.

Because Sabrina is supposed to be going to a Halloween party at Veronica's mansion with Cheryl Blossom, she quickly changes into a costume (a witch) and gives the boy, who identifies himself as Stevie, a superhero costume with her magic. Knuckles & Sonic want to go home, but Sabrina asks them to come along until she finds a way to send them back. Cheryl arrives and the group is taken to the party. While the Archies and Josie & the Pussycats perform, Knuckles & Sonic are disgusted by the food options, such as "pig roast" and "fried chicken," offered to them. The duo is commented on their "great outfits" though by several people.

As people start getting involved with the party games, Sabrina uses the opportunity to call Salem for help. Sabrina explains the situation with Knuckles & Sonic and Salem teleports himself over. At that moment, Robotnik walks by, but Sabrina knows she didn't bring him. Knuckles & Sonic spot Robotnik and attack, but it turns out it was Jughead in costume. Salem at this point sends Knuckles & Sonic back to Mobius though he wanted to "send the boring humans instead." At the end, Salem (who has narrated the whole story) says that Sabrina made everyone forget about the entire Knuckles/Sonic incident, except Stevie.

Next Story is in SONIC SUPER SPECIAL #12
