* Anti-Sonic's redesign from "Sonic in shades and a leather jacket" into the green-colored Scourge the Hedgehog is a two-fer. Firstly, it homages the famous "Ashura the Hedgehog" glitch-character from the videogames. Secondly, Fleetway's ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'' had its ''own'' green-furred evil Sonic doppelganger, all the way back in 1994! The story "The Pretender" in issue #31 has "Cosmic the Hedgehog", who looks like a green Sonic wearing a cape and a yellow C on his chest, as well as sporting a single blonde curl of hair on his forehead that looks like a C; Cosmic turns out to be a disguise for shapeshifting villainess Metamorphia.

* On the title page for one issue, Nack's description is listed as "Fanged Sniper", a reference to his Japanese name, Fang the Sniper.
* Sonic remarks that he beat Scratch, Grounder, and Coconuts when he was eight, which is the age he would have been when you subtract the number of years ago ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' aired from his current age. And also approximately the time since they appeared in the second issue.
* When Eggman escapes from the Eggdome in #205 in a giant tortoise robot, he shouts, "[[WaxingLyrical I will destroy the blue one, you know!]] [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 He's the obstacle that always gets in my way!]]" Also see AscendedMeme.
* Ian Flynn seems to enjoy having these in combination with AscendedMeme, such as Metal Sonic saying [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 "It's no use!"]] at one point to Silver. Silver then responds with "Hey, Metal Sonic! [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros You're too slow!]]"
* Arlo (one of the Substitute Freedom Fighters) is an armadillo, but has a totally different design than Mighty. [[AllThereInTheManual It's explained in the Encyclopedia]] that Arlo is a Western armadillo, while Mighty is an Eastern one. This is a likely a reference that Arlo was created by the American comic team, while Mighty was designed by the Japanese game designers.
* Post-reboot, Sonic and Tails meet up with Uncle Chuck and Muttski in Wood Zone, which was one of the cut stages from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2''.
* The Freedom Fighter's flying ship's name (The Sky Patrol) is a reference to the spinoff game VideoGame/TailsSkyPatrol.
* #269 features advertisements for [[VideoGame/SonicHeroes HEXAeco]] and [[VideoGame/SonicRiders MeteorTech]], the latter of which is apparently under new, "non-evil" management. Not to mention Sonic fighting ''Advertising/SegataSanshiro''. #270 likewise has ads for [[WesternAnimation/SonicBoom Chao Boom]], [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic Man]], and [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Chao in Space 3]].
* There's a subtle one in the introduction of the handheld supercomputer Nicole: In [[WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM the cartoon]], Sonic develops a bit of a habit of shaking her when the words she uses get too big for him. It's funny, but more than a little uncomfortable. In the comic, it's the first thing Sonic tries with her until she ''fights back'' by shocking him.
-->'''Sally:''' That wasn't very ''nice,'' Nicole!\\
'''Nicole:''' [[AC:Neither was nearly shaking me to pieces!]]
* Issue #272 has a guest appearance by [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Professor von Schlemmer]], who is a scientist from Silver's time in the future. The ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheFighters Sonic Championship]]'' arc has [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Wes Weasely]] as the fight announcer.
