'''''Sonichu'' #3''' is the 4th issue of the [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comic series]].
'''''Sonichu'' #4''' is the fifth issue of the ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' series.


This issue introduces the [[Chaotic Combo]], the five Electric Hedgehogs who basically exist to be Sonichu and Rosechu's friends and would form the fixed ensemble cast of the series going forwards. Rather than just have more [[rainbow]] beams hit unsuspecting [[Pokémon]], Chris gets it in his head that baby Sonichus would be cute and decides to spend all of Episode 10 chronicling the entire life stories of five different characters. Each of the Combo's origin stories are virtually identical, as they are created as eggs from the magical rainbow and then deposited umpteen years in the past, where they're adopted by people or Pokémon who cultivate their abilities until they evolve. Making matters worse, Chris's concept for [[Sonee and Rosey|baby Sonichus and Rosechus]] is that they are unable to speak beyond saying "Sonee?" or "Rosey!", thereby guaranteeing page upon page with almost no intelligible dialogue. The troll community almost unanimously agrees that "Sonichu Babies" is one of the most aggravating pieces of Sonichu material made, and is the most likely to result in some kind of violence, due to the irrational anger it can and has caused. This issue took Chris ''seven months'' to complete; even he seems to have struggled to get through it.
A departure from the previous books in both form and content, ''Sonichu'' #4 is a sort of anthology that consists ''exclusively'' of [[Sub-Episodes]] about [[Chris]]'s [[Love Quest]] and other happenings of his life, which originally appeared at the end of each previous issue. Chris's [[Chris and his Ego|narcissism]] is in full bloom here, as he reprints the first four sub-episodes (from ''Sonichu'' #0 to #3), and adds four more.

Sonichu #4 is the fifth issue of the Sonichu series.

A departure from the previous books in both form and content, Sonichu #4 is a sort of anthology that consists exclusively of Sub-Episodes about Chris's Love Quest and other happenings of his life, which originally appeared at the end of each previous issue. Chris's narcissism is in full bloom here, as he reprints the first four sub-episodes (from Sonichu #0 to #3), and adds four more.

Chris has stated that his mother told him to stop making sub-episodes as they loosely depicted unflattering events from Chris's life; this issue's format may represent an effort to get them all out of the way immediately following her edict. At this point, Chris appeared to cut the pretense and make the series purely about his Mary Sue stand-in instead of the title character. Each episode in the book tells basically the same story: Chris loitering, being confronted by his enemies and then effortlessly defeating them. For almost every episode, there is an edited version, mainly poorly changing real-life names or changing his "curse ye ha me ha" attack by one word. Or he changes scenes entirely several years after publishing.
