EGA 2007
In case you haven't heard, Emerald Guardian is hosting their own site awards called the EG Awards. Knuckles Haven is up for "Best Knuckles Source" and "Best Site for 2007." In addition, some authors are up for "Best Knuckles Fan Fiction." They are Ellie-Za (The Echidna Aficionado), Mauser, Pundit, and Spectre (found at KTE Fans). There are other things to vote on so please give EG some support and vote on their awards before the May 2nd deadline--even if you don't vote for this site. ;)

Free Comic Book Day 2007
As a heads up, Free Comic Book Day is Saturday, May 5, 2007. Archie is publishing a free Sonic comic this year and Knuckles will definitely be in it. So, if you live in the US check your comic shops to see if they are getting it. This won't be available everywhere and there's really no telling if anyone outside the US (and maybe Canada) will even have the option.

For the Wii and DS: Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
Nintendo and Sega are having their mascots in a game based on the upcoming Summer Olympics in Beijing. Knuckles is of course mentioned as one of the characters who will be in the game to be released later this year.
